Sorry, Koobookie, the purpose of MyMountainTown, as I understand it, is to be a forum for the greater mountain community,

If I understand you correctly, you are just throwing out suppositions without any proof, hoping that it will somehow sway me to believe you? That's now how debate works. I understand this is not a courtroom, but if you want to intelligently discuss a point, back it up with your sources.towermonkey wrote:

What do you consider "credible". Andrew McCarthy is the DA that convicted the blind sheik in NYC for the first bombing of the WTC. Do an internet search for his postings.
I do not consider gatewaypundit.com to be a credible source. I did do a search, but when nothing remotely similar came up, I asked the person that posted the assertion to provide more information, or a credible source. You jumped into the fray.
FYI - towermonkey made the assertion. It is their responsibility to back it up. I should not have to research it for them, even though I made the attempt.
Sorry Kabookie, but I’m not arguing a court case. This is a discussion forum, not a courtroom. If you don’t want to believe my assertions, that is up to you. I’m not going to go look through what you would call credible news sources for something that clearly doesn’t match their propagandist slant. Your mind is made up and so is mine. What would be the point in wasting all that time?

ramage wrote: HA, how did my comment regarding the fact that MMT is a forum deflect from the subject?
Koobookie appeared to be upset that I posted. I interpreted that to me that she did not want to hear from anyone other than her target. If that is what she desired, posting a PM to that individual would have been appropriate.
TowerMonkey is correct this is a discussion forum. I don't think that it provides meaningful dialogue by insulting someone posting. To require sources in order to "intelligently" discuss a point only reflects on your shallowness and inability to have an opinion of your own. It is glib to simply post articles or cartoons.

EXCELLENT way to deflect....but then, THAT is a familiar M.O.

How boring is a message board that just has quoted media and opinion pieces.
