Believe me or don't, I really don't care. If you choose to take my post as libel against you, that's your right, but given that I don't know you and apparently haven't described your beliefs, it takes some amazing mental gymnastics to pull that off, and that's on you, not me.

You seem to know a lot about the "government is evil, taxation is theft, global warming is a hoax" fringe crowd, but when questioned, you refer only to your father. You're extrapolating to a whole group of people from a personal family anecdote. Your comment is devoid of data and that's why such drivel is not appreciated.

Yeah, I know a fair amount of what that crowd believes, as a result of lots of exposure, direct and indirect, to the aforementioned talk radio and magazine. No, I can't name names. So what? I couldn't name any hosts on Fox News or CNN, but I can state with confidence from what I've seen of them that a lot of them are full of crap.
