I agree you would not have been ridiculed. I am about the only conservative here, and I'm ridiculed (even when were not discussing politics). So, you shouldh have spoken up, you would have had LOTS of support.

If you backed any of your arguments up with facts, then perhaps people would take you more seriously. Just a suggestion and a kind one at that.

That would also include providing links to accompany the articles you're posting. :)

Well first of all, I don't present many "arguments" here. And when I do, I do back them with common sense and facts. But they are either A) ignored or B) made out to be jokes and just simply replied with "that's not true."

Well boy with educated responses like that...how can you back ANYTHING up.

I don't see any of you backing anything you say with something that even looks like a fact.

So please stop with the whole "if you'd back your arguments up with facts..." Boy it gets OLD!

it helps to see who your sources are. Most all of us post links or copy/paste the articles so that other readers can evaluate the source, and therefore the credibility. sources with known bias (Fox news, Sean Hannity et al) have an obvious axe to grind. much better to get your news from a neutral source such as census bureau, or the like if possible....
