>>>>These questions sure sound like they were posed by a tiger ready to pounce. theobjectivestandard.com? Sounds more like one of those lobbying groups (both sides) who hide behind bland labels.

>>>I don't care where those questions came from. What I care about are the answers. Don't you want to know? Do we stop questioning our government now and stop receiving answers because we don't like who is asking the questions?

>>There you go again with the straw man routine. I care about the answers, too. My comment was in response to a partisan attack couched in amiable terms. A wolf in sheep's clothing, one might say ;-)

>What partisan attack? Regardless of the reason for the questions, the questions should be asked and answered. You are attacking the messenger in this case. Your comments astound me sometimes. "A partisan attack couched in amiable terms" ha ha ha You can't denounce valid questions simply because you personally tink the questioner has motives for asking the questions.

Not playing. Have a nice afternoon.
