Whether the topic is Hillary, Obama, Bush, Cheney, Nader, Chris Matthews, flag lapel pins, Maureen Dowd's columns, cable or network news, "who is ahead?" polls, or any of a million other topics, virtually everything we see, read, or hear, is approximately 99% bullshit.

Every one of us views the world from our own perspective. And since no two perspectives are exactly the same, that tends to put us in the land of "The Blind Men And The Elephant." (A poem you can Google if you care to.)

Having said this, there is one fact that is not bullshit. The numbers of people, Americans, Iraqis and others who have been killed in an insane war. Those numbers are facts. And those responsible for them must someday be held accountable.

Hot damn.

I'm in 100% agreement with Oscar Wilde.

Ninety-nine percent of everything is bull excrement.

That of course includes what the primitives allege on Skins's island, 99% of it.

And the 1% they are right about is purely by accident. :-)

Um, since your "facts" are estimates and vary to a DEGREE of 10-fold, I wouldn't call them "facts."  Here is another statistic: 97.3% of all cited facts and statistics are pulled of the poster's ass.  The other  2.7% are reserved for scientifically peer-reviewed and independently checked data.

 :lmao:

This is just another gloom and doom DUmmie.

Maybe if they left the Island, they'd discover that not 99% of everything is bullshit, just 99% of what they are being told at the DUmp is.
