[font color="navy" face="Verdana"]It's my experience, too, that they politicize everything and want to "debate" everything. Broad-brushing, distorting, and labeling is just part of their arsenal.

During the Clinton and Bush years, I thought it was my duty to be well informed and to share that factual knowledge, so I responded in full to every lie, every bit of misinformation, and every talking point with carefully researched and documented factual information. It just made them angrier, nastier, and more relentless.

Now I know better and don't waste my time.
