Waste of time, folks. One needs to have a desire to use critical thinking skills. One needs to have a desire to actually come to a conclusion, as opposed to being led to a predetermined conclusion. One of the biggest problems I see out there today, on all sides of the equation, is the lack of desire to step outside of the "slogan/title" that folks have assigned themselves. I say I am a progressive, or a liberal, and they assume they know all about me. Our King T is one of these. He has expended so much personal capital defending this guy that there is no way back. I wish he could step outside himself and look at his statements from afar. He would then see how silly they are. In a way he reminds me of the Iraqui official that stood on the roof denying that Americans had entered Bagdad while in the background you could hear the bombs.
