BB - "As long as the determination of truth is by one's political preferences, there can be NO FAIR investigation. "

Yeah. How about that, eh? Matter of fact, BB, that's the way it always is when these things happen, and that's why we virtually NEVER get a fair and impartial investigation of anything nor do we get a full and honest disclosure of all the available evidence. People are covering their own asses, and they are pushing their own agenda.

The same tends to be true in many criminal investigations. Both the prosecution and the defense will stoop to any manipulative tactic they can legally get away with in order to push their particular agenda...and secure a "win" from their point of view.

It's a disease of this entire competition-obsessed culture. Winning and being seen to win is all that counts.

It is likewise the same disease that corrupts every debate on this forum... I keep pointing that out, because it's so blatant, but most people only seem to see it when the "other guy" is doing it. Perhaps that is because they are constitutionally incapable of engaging in self-criticism or self-analysis? ;-) Well, I don't know, but it's certainly something to witness.
