Re: They're not facts?
And this is the yawning chasm between how I think and how you think.
You have no counterevidence. You have no better numbers from other sources. You can't point to something in the article that is incorrect, a flaw in the methodology, or something they missed.
You feel like it's untrue, so it is. Truth is what you think it ought to be, and your simple declaration that something is not a fact automatically makes it false.
Explains a lot about the liberal mindset in general.
Just out of curiosity, what "fact" could not be dismissed by your statement?
