Wow. Even I'll pop into places like Huffpo every so often, if for no other reason than to see what the left's latest perturbation is. Closed minds are a bitch. Hope you consider getting that fixed soon.

There's no paywall at HuffPo, whell. I wouldn't pay to read the WSJ either.

Isn't it funny how immediately obvious that his fallacies are?

The Huffpost has no paywall. I would read the article if it was open to people with open minds, but I refuse to add value to Rupert Murdoch's media empire. Isn't that the way capitalism works - one only spends money if he believes he is getting value for the expenditure. I don't see the value in paying for a subscription to the WSJ when there are more credible sources that are not behind a paywall.

Have you purchased a subscription to the Wapo? If so, you might have a scintilla of a point. Otherwise, you can take your sanctimonious BS and fertilize your garden with it.

Ah, the hostility.

Yes, I have a subscription to WaPo, so thanks for conceding the point.

No, I answered a question. What other baseless critique would you care to make?

I should've highlighted your "Ah, the hostility" comment but maybe I gave you too much credit for seeing that.

So what? His comment was a bit nasty. Didn't bother me at all. As I've said elsewhere, forum leans left and non conformists here should expect such comments. Identifying it for what it is falls far short of "silly", though.
