Heh...well I tried to be more diplomatic, but you know how I am.

No more stress...just easy peace and quiet (hint hint).

You know, I value your opinion a lot, almost as much as I value Wolf's opinion. I'll try, in the future, to be less of a fucking idiot, OK? I really hope that meets with your approval.

Not necessarily. The source could have its own agenda. Not to mention, look at the recent mea culpas from the New York Times and the Washington Post...the former apparently didn't do enough hard research, and the latter was apparently afraid to speak too loudly against the war inside the Beltway.

What is, in your opinion, a completely credible source? Fox News?
There is no completely credible source, IMO. Some are better than others...I tend to go with MSNBC, AP, BBC and Reuters. I also check out sites like Fox News and the Washington Times on occasion, b/c I think it's important to see things from multiple points-of-view.

We'll see...you may prove to be a valuable member of the community yet. After all, if Slang can become respectable, anyone can.
