Logic Question

What do you call a situation when you come to a conclusion that ignores all contradictory evidence? In other words, the conclusion doesn't match the evidence? I can't think of the term.

Please help me.

Liberalism is the answer to that question. A good current example is, how the left is pushing the meme that Bush started fast and furious and the heroic Eric Holder who didn't know anything about it, stepped in and stopped it. Not to mention that the f&f program started in 2009. In 2009 Chimpy was at home in Texas chillin in da crib.

I find it humorous and ironic that at the message board that is world famous for its hypocrisy there is a poster with the username no-hypocrisy.

It is said that branches draw their life from the vine. Each is separate yet all are one as they share one life giving stem . The Bible tells us we are called to a similar union in life, our lives with the life of God. We are incorporated into him; made sharers in his life. Apart from this union we can do nothing.

Beat me to it!

Communism/socialism/progressivism/big government never has worked and has only produced misery and hundreds of millions dead but people still think it can work. Same goes for hating capitalism.

When you are the beneficiary of someone’s kindness and generosity, it produces a sense of gratitude and community.

When you are the beneficiary of a policy that steals from someone and gives it to you in return for your vote, it produces a sense of entitlement and dependency.
