The Wall Street Journal is liberal and controlled by Obama

Along with The Washington Post and Reuters. Oh and Glenn Beck and a couple of crockumentaries are the only ones telling the truth.

Yeah- that's the arguement I'm having right now with someone online. They claim all sorts of rediculous obviously factually untrue things (claiming several "radical islamists" are working in the Obama admin when the names cited have nothing to do with any branch of government and one of them is highly critical of Obama). I really don't mind having these debates, trying to pass along facts and real sources- but can one ever truly get someone like that to change? And I'm not getting trolled- pretty sure this kid is just a young teenager and horribly misguided.
I really don't mind it- but it is crazy how many 'friends' I meet through video games that believe this shit. These people really do exist, and in droves.
