    I did not say "no bias." I said they did not report the campaign had colluded but only reported there was an investigation.

    One source is my local Hearst newspaper, another is the Houston Chronicle, and the Washington Post.

    If you have stories in which they said the president colluded please include a link (other than editorials).

    Sorry, all reasonable, informed people know the pizzagate story was just wacko. They were supposedly in the basement of a building with no basement.

    Do you mean Podeesta's emails with the "coded" messages?

    Agreed. He can't make it for the whackos because they are insane. You, OTOH, are free to swallow the story right up to the root.

    Disagreed and your own link proves you wrong since it never says what you claim.

    I doubt that. Anyone with a rudimentary grasp of the English language can read his post, in which he clearly seems to be speaking on behalf of "all reasonable, informed people", who apparently are the people he chooses to apply those attributes to.

    On a purely semantic level that statement is ridiculous.

    He's entitled to his personal opinion, and I respect it. He doesn't get to speak for a class of unnamed individuals (defined by their agreement with his opinion, apparently) in a self-aggrandizing manner in order to congratulate himself.

    I don't recall stating that the link I provided "proved" anything. I made the resource available for those who may be interested in the subject of polling/public opinion surveys.

    Thanks for the link. I'll look at it sometime.

    IMO there cannot ne a "scientific" poll because it would be impossible to apply the scientific method to something so subjective as an opinion survey.

    Soooooo if someone says "Sorry, all reasonable, informed people know 2 + 2 = 4" are you going to have another conniption saying they don't speak for everyone? WTF are you on, son?

    Translation: I was shitting out smoke hoping people were as stupid as I am and didn't read it.

    I know, son. Most people have you figured out. Do you ever wonder why not even the RWNJs tolerate you very much?
