It can't be misinformation if you don't choose to read what I post, can it?

Have you bothered to check this relationship by following the link provided, or are you just going to accuse me of disinformation?

Maybe you will have better luck addressing the management of 285Bound than you are having with me.Just a thought!

That first sentence is freaking Orwellian. But I doubt you'll see why.

As to the second....like it or not, people aren't going to go and read your links if you post numerous bogus stuff, anymore than people are going to follow your links on a church forum if you keep posting links to porn sites.

As to addressing the management? I stopped crying to mama about bullies on the playground 45 years ago. You won't get off that easily. :biggrin:

OK, I have done your work for you. I've already read your WND article, and I did the search for Obama-Kagan as suggested.

I got nine results. Just like Snopes said. Each result matched exactly with what Snopes listed. And as Snopes reported, none of the nine cases (3 were duplicates) had anything to do with Obama's citizenship.

And why would you even think doing a search for "Obama-Kagan" would give results about a Supreme Court case dealing in Obama's citizenship? Didn't it even occur to you that both their names might appear in other, unrelated cases? If you wanted to find a case that deals with Obama's citizenship, why not search for "Obama-citizenship" instead? Oh, guess what, I tried it and no such Supreme Court case shows up.

While there have been lawsuits regarding Obama's citizenship, none of them have reached the Supreme Court...

And I'm glad you subscribe to both conservative and liberal web sites. But have you ever posted some garbage from a liberal site as if it's fact like you post garbage from conservative sites?

OK, I did my homework on your WMD story. It's pure hog wash. Have you researched it too? If so, please report your findings that support it.

Yeah I love the people who think that Snoopes is God and that they are the be all end all, and whatever they say must be true. Here is the truth and they are exposed as being very fallible as we talked about in a previous thread.

OK, I read that thread.

It's funny that when someone posts an article from a place like WND, or a mass email; when someone debunks it by using a place like Snopes, conservatives here shot it down by attacking Snopes.

But after reading the "truth" you posted, it too is a mass email. So you are using a mass email to attack a place that does a great job of debunking mass emails. Makes me dizzy thinking about it.

The funniest part is that the author of that email says:

Truth or Fiction, is a better source for verification, in my opinion.

http://www.truthorfiction.com/


And truthorfiction.com fully supports Snopes just as Photo-Fish posted!...

http://www.truthorfiction.com/rumors/s/snopes.htm

Places like Snopes and factcheck.org gives tons of quotes, links, and footnotes to support their arguements. That email gave very little. For example, he states that he's seen many videos on Obama that he thought were true but that Snopes said were false, but he fails to give us a link to even one of them.

I don't think any web site is infallible, and it's a good idea to check things out before taking anything as fact, Snopes or Factcheck included. But at least those sites give you many resources to help you get started on your own research. And with experience with them, you can get much more confidence in what they report as you do your own research.

And BTW, we already gave you what Truthorfiction said, and here is what Factcheck said about that email "exposing" Snopes...
