You are among people who can think for themselves, not Rush ditto head left. Just because the Nation says it does not make it 100 percent true. The real world does not work that way. Someone who only depends on a specific ideological slant are uninformed. BTW, the centrist publications, other than the Eban piece does not agree with you. Reality based slogan is nice slogan, I can't remember who coined it, but no ideology has a monopoly.

So you call an author "discredited" because she upset some Republicans by DanTex Oct 2012 #11

She was discredited long before the IG's report came out by those who care about reality as opposed TPaine7 Oct 2012 #13
