Opinions exist when one first has facts. Because Pat Robertson says so, that is a fact?

But you lie (again) about what I said. What you call opinions is propaganda. Repeating what a political machine tells you to believe. Jill even asked you to back up your cheap shot with facts. You cannot do that. Limbaugh does not tell you why; only tells you what to believe.

So you lie about what I state? Opinions are nothing more than propaganda when hateful O'Reilly preachings are mindlessly echoed. Why do you repeatedly forget what I really said? Opinions require supporting facts.

Extremists must and will routinely lie even about torture. It was promoted by those who know; but forgot to learn how interrogation works. Then lie again to scapegoat enlisted men once they realized in pictures what torture really looks like. Soldiers must be sacrified for a political agenda.

Somehow enlisted men accidently used torture methods approved at the highest levels of government? Another lie promoted in 2004 and 2005 to blame enlisted men for torture. Who needs so much protection as to lie?

These are honest men - who accidently got it wrong even about Saddam's WMDs? Who accidently sent 4000 American soldiers to death? Lying is routine: demonstrated when Jill challenged you to support your accusations with facts.

But again, the common factor repeated. Extermist political agendas justify constant lying and posting cheap shot accusations.
