Bdgee- So how we can we have a reasonable debate that gets past step one if you won't let me use a source you consider reliable? I am trying to cut through the argument about sources part of our debates and am willing to only use the sources you have faith in. makes sense to me. Am I off base here guys?

Seems to me (according to what your report) that you come here as part of a team involved in a campaign to promote quite extreme positions (though you don't seem to be able to realize they are extreme) and you assume that anyone not similarly positioned on the far right religious extreme likes to be insulted with your loaded and biased questioning.
Any answer to your questions assumes an answer to satisfy your bias. It's like asking the man if he has stopped beating his wife or the student if he cheated again on the reexam. In other words, you are attacking people by the structure of your questions (as well as in the structure of your statements tha5 aren't questions), then insisting they only respond in ways you have pre-set..... Why do you insist on such an insulting characterization of others before you even allow them to take a position?
There is NO evidence that anyone in your cadre EVER was open minded about anything. You begin everything with unwarranted assumptions and statements of the positions and beliefs of others whom you denegrate within the attack.

I'm extremly conservative Bdgee, I will not argue that. I am part of a two man team, my brother and I, that comes here to talk politics and express our opinions.
I recognize that some of my viewpoints are extreme. But I also know that they are no more extreme than saying Bush is an idiot, Bush rigged the 2004 elections, Bush knew 9/11 was going to happen, Bush is sleeping with Condi Rice. These things are said on here daily. Do you consider those mainstream ideas? Both of our viewpoints are extreme. Do you see that?
I suspect both of us are in a similar boat. We very rarely are confronted with opposing view points, and even rarer still do we listen to those viewpoints.
I am merely trying here to end the source argument with you. I believe if you where to provide a list of acceptable sources it would help our arguments be more civil.

Saying Bush is an idiot is not extreme. It is a fact.
"I believe if you where to provide a list of acceptable sources it would help our arguments be more civil."
I think that once again you are assuming things that you have no right to assume in another disingenuous attempt to position yourself as honorable and someone else not so.. I will not play in your game of "degrade, denigrate, and insult and pretend it is debate".

wouldn't it be ironic if the votes weren't really counted and that the power brokers and the dnc and the rnc sold the presidency like any other valuable commodity. voting could only be an illusion, think about it.
