Yes he said that many partisans refuse to accept facts - JG MU

And what is factual is NOT determined by ideology - raskolnikov MU - 11/25 11:41:12

Here's a simple example for you - BigDave MU - 11/25 12:20:28

That's a good example of how interpretation gets - KC rules MU - 11/26 11:10:19

You want to get into that ? - raskolnikov MU - 11/25 12:13:07

Then you made a straw man argument, refuting a point - zounami MU - 11/25 11:42:56

Here Dipsht - Just what I said - raskolnikov MU - 11/25 11:53:09

You still don't understand his nuanced argument... - zounami MU - 11/25 12:01:28

His statement was incorrect. What he wanted to say - raskolnikov MU - 11/25 12:17:20

Even if you convinced him, he wouldn't admit it. Nm - hokie VT - 11/25 12:04:00
