It's a bad article? When did we establish this?OK, that was a bad choice of wording on my part. Having some incorrect or poorly defined terms doesn't make the entire article bad, so I'm sorry about that. You certainly could have found them on your o...  [Read More]
At this point it seems that you would prefer to insult my intelligence.You don't like being called on putting up a bad article, so I guess you think this kind of tactic will be more effective? That had you chosen to, you could have done a little leg...  [Read More]
You're right, you did not use those exact words.Nor did I imply it. Did you consider the option that I was also considering someone quoting a bad source? Apparently not. And that changes what?My perception of your source. FWIW, I did point out that...  [Read More]

What substantiation do we have for this article? None. Zip. Zilch. Fifty bases sounds like a ridiculously high number to me. Anyone can say "oh, I have information leaked from the Pentagon" and make an article out of it to inflame the mas...  [Read More]

Arcesious--it's OK to vote in the poll for who you want to win, even if you aren't old enough to vote yet. :) I added the "I honestly don't know" option for those of you who really don't know, but who are going to vote (or would vote if ab...  [Read More]

Furthermore please could you define creationism for me? As currently it could mean a range of things, so I couldn't answer until you have defined it, as you mean above. :) Which version, too? Theistic evolution? Progressive (old-earth) creationism? Y...  [Read More]

Easier deniability and harder to get a court order for a specific location since there is none, however is kind of stupid because in international waters the U.S. must observe maritime law. Is keelhauling legal under maritime law? I'm not sure if int...  [Read More]

You're still missing the point, but that's okay :)Actually, I completely understand the artificial use of language you're making and your distinction. The terrorists conspired to slam planes into buildings, i.e. it was a conspiracy. However, since th...  [Read More]

I think you're missing the point. I am not questioning that these men conspired to hijack the planes. The point is that both explanations can accurately described as "conspiracy theories" however only one carries a connotation with it.The d...  [Read More]

Anything can say it's a documentary and be put up anywhere. Fact has nothing to do with it. I'm sure that millions of people eagerly discount Michael Moore, yet to the theaters his movies go. Scientists couldn't wait to take shots at Ben Stein's new...  [Read More]

It's a documentary. It may say 'documentary', but just about anything can say it's a documentary and be put up on youtube as if it were fact. We can conspiracy-theory this thing to death, but regardless of whether it was a bomb that took it down or...  [Read More]

RealClearPolitics shows Obama as being 10 delegates away from the nomination. Yeah, it depends on who's doing the head-counting. He should pick up those 10 tonight with the last 2 primaries in any case if they aren't counting the delegates the AP is...  [Read More]

Do you think that Hillary Clinton will be announcing her concession today? She cannot win without swaying almost every super-delegate, which is very unlikely. I think she's working on a concession. She might not like what the handwriting on the wall...  [Read More]

Obama only needs about 40 more delegates before this meeting, while Clinton needs 200 or so to win. Even if she gets a lot of those votes and he only gets a few, he doesn't need that many more to secure the nomination....  [Read More]
