    Yes, it's customary to question sources, but there is a certain broadness of the net which you boys cast, and a reflexiveness to it that's creating the push-back you're feeling. When everyone except for Fox News and Rush Limbaugh is biased, well, people get a little tired of hearing about it.
    Anyone can scream "Bias!" because we all have one. Just because it matches your own doesn't mean it doesn't exist. The author is clearly expressing their bias and catering to the views of his readers. I also stated that it wasn't bias, but idiocy.

    MOST IMPORTANTLY I didn't mean to call anyone here an idiot even if it seemed like that. Since "your post" was mostly a quote, that's what I was referring to.

    Reinvent the British and you get a global finance center, edible food and better service. Reinvent the French and you may just get more Germans.
