I am glad that you disapprove of all tax cheats. I still find you strange tha you choose to expound only on those associated with the right an remain silent on those appointed bt Obama.
You should read my post more carefully. I did NOT say that you posted all of the false statements I listed. I said that I thought you probably posted some of them. If you did and then corrected it later, thats great. I will accept your word for it.
I have not made excuses for my errors. I think I elaborated on them at length.

Please read a little more carefully before you hurl baseless accusations around! I know this list sometimes has a lot of traffic and that not everyone (perhaps anyone!) can remember it all, but I have *never ever* had any qualms about correcting things I've posted that were inaccurate or incomplete here. I can think of several instances where I had to correct myself, either for things I found out after posting or when other Visionaries brought more information to my attention.

However, I'm quite sure I remember FOX News making a very big deal about Palin not knowing that Africa was a continent rather than a country . . . yuppers, there are quite a few videos available of the various discussions on FOX News -- here's only one such link:

> Wrong again, Roger: I was the first one here to point out -- repeatedly -- the facts about that. Before you accusing me of things I didn't do, you should at least have the common decency to get your facts straight. Feel free to take your precious time to look at my posts on 9/7/2008, and then apologize.

> Look -- if you want to post things on V2020, then you need to be willing to accept the discussion that follows WITHOUT resorting to making scurrilous accusations against those who disagree with you or respond with more accurate &/or complete information.

> Frankly, you should be ashamed of yourself, Roger. It's one thing to (repeatedly) pass along the kind of knee-jerk stuff you do without taking 30 seconds to check for accuracy, but it's a completely different think to make blatantly false accusations about those who respond to your nonsense. Some of us who participate in these discussions actually CARE about our reputations for accuracy. You don't care about yours, and that's your choice, but how DARE you make absolutely baseless accusations against those of us who do.
