Flame » in reply to I'm tired of debating.

I've been making a point.

I've responded to a number of posts from a number of people. The gist of many of them falls under the category of "no. That statement is not true. Here are the facts."

This infuriates the hell out of people who have a lot invested in the lies.

This election ran on lies and innuendo. Now that it's over, the liars are still in power. It matters in a democracy that people like us look for the truth when we vote based on what we know--not what we want to believe.

Practically every other post here has contained statements and talking points that are blatant bullshit. And provably so. Most of the time I just let them ride. But once in a while, just to make a point, I decide not to let them ride.

Debate ought to be to arrive at what's true. Debate in this country is now about destroying the opposition.

Now go look at that Merlin clip again.
