Some guidelines for the right wingers

It would help your cause, McCain trolls and other right wingers, if your arguments had some sort of basis in FACT.

I’ve just gone through a few of the diaries and comments here and find that Newsie, AS, the here-today-gone-November-5th McCain trolls, and even a few normally sane right wing posters (withholding their names for the time being) throwing out talking points and links to discredited right wing editorials in support of their policies. When answered by liberals who have FACTS and links to REPUTABLE news sources to counter, these right wingers are silent, only popping up elsewhere to write fallacious posts and diaries so that they can be briefly viewed without a critical reply.

To my right wing friends – you do nothing for your failing political philosophy when you can’t depend on facts and sound documents when you make your case. Blaming Clinton for what’s going on now is absurd in the extreme, unless you can provide some hard evidence backing your claim. Platitudes about how the American worker makes our economy strong refutes the hard numbers not at all. Blowsie editorials from financial papers only demonstrate how divorced from reality editors can be when it comes to using their bully pulpit; how about an ARTICLE that shows how any of America’s problems can be blamed on left wing policies?

So let’s get cracking, kids. You’re all about to fail here, so start doing some research and show that there’s a tangible reason to support conservative politics today.
