Yeah, yeah Archie, you have used that quote before and yes, there is reason to doubt opinions but not the facts on which they are based. The problem I have with leftists is their opinions are all too often not based on facts, they are based on emotion and feelings. To wit, this ridiculous insistence on raising taxes on job creators, allegedly in order to raise revenue despite the very clear evidence that it doesn't work and that in fact the opposite happens. How do you explain this? Are they lying or just ignorant and unwilling to learn? I would really like to know because it is a greta mystery to me and I could not live that way. And do I need to restate the facts that I base my opinion on? And if I do it once again will it change your opinion or any other liberal? I don't think so but I would love to be proved wrong. I have just found liberals to be impervious to a rational argument as to why they are wrong.

I tell you in the post above what I believe about the importance of GOP members of Congress fulfilling their promise to the voters and you respond with this inane kool aid comment. Is that all you have to add to the conversation? Is that your idea of a fact based discussion? You don't want to compete in the arena of ideas because that is not one where you can successfully persuade anyone but the most ill informed.

I think not and that's because you want to raise taxes not for the stated reason but to punish achievement out of class envy. And Democrat politicians recognize this class envy and use it as a means to gather up more votes. That is why I hold them in such low regard and why Europe is such a mess. And we are headed there and I plan to oppose that with every fiber of my being. I will not be quiet because it offends leftists....sorry. And I will hold them in low regard if they refuse to listen to reason. And I don't care about opinion polls or political positioning or any of that crap. I believe what I believe because of the examination of facts and if my facts are wrong or there are others that I need to know bring them on. I will be glad to look at them but quit wasting our time with your kool aid comments and attempts to demonize me because you don't like what I say or how I say it. Bring on something,,,anything....that is based on some truth and I promise you I will change my opinions.
