Would quotes from presidents satisfy you?

Wow, our Founding Fathers admitted to creating isis? Amazing.

"if the American people knew what we have done, they would string us up from the lamp posts." GHWB

let's be honest guys--you don't know because you don't want to know, as long as you can make your next mortgage payment or whatever. You got jokes.

Ah yes, the GHWB quote, which has been so twisted and applied to so many different stories and contexts, no one knows what it really originally applied to.

Some have attributed the quote to Iran Contra (I believe that's the most accurate), others claim it's referring to JFK, 9/11, and now isis.

Whatever the context, devout conspirists - like Shazy here - love to pull out this quote to try and insert it, out of context, to whichever conspiracy they're peddling.

Tell us again how uninterested you really are in these worldly matters, Shazy. All this time being spent here doesn't match your talk.

So then "conspiracy" just becomes another way to discredit a different perspective; doing what we are best at. But God will not be mocked, and it is the blind who pay the price.

If you had credible evidence for your claims. But you have none and you have been exposed on several occasions to spout something as rock-solid fact and upon investigation shown to be spurious.

oh ya, like what? Surely they are just different perspectives; i don't necessarily take them as "facts," myself.
