In other news, "gullible" isn't in the English dictionary.

I don't understand why you hate blogs so much.

Most of the column is lifted directly from the NBC affiliate in Monterrey, CA, which I assume you'd agree is factual. Most blogs cite and quote heavily from "mainstream" sources, so I don't get why you never accept any of it as "news".

The rest of it is one individual's opinion/commentary and interpretation, and biased of course, just as you may find in the editorial pages of the New York Times or Washington Post, from Jon Stewart, or on evening Fox or MSNBC talk shows.

They are fine if you can understand that they are mostly opinion and not news. Unfortunately, Torchy can't distinguish between the two. THis is the danger of them.

And debating the actual merits of the position can be scary, too.

You know, if you spent 1/4 of the time you spend bitching about conservatives, you might be able to learn that software and move out of your 1 bedroom apartment.


...but bitching is easier than actually putting forth the effort to learn a new skill.
