    I read it---but in the interest of full disclosure, I have to add that I am extremely cautious in believing anything I read or hear from a source that obviously demonstrates it's own bias---and no--I am not saying anything is incorrect (but I do believe it is) and I would have to seek other sources to verify it's veracity.

    Kind of like Fox and CNN---its all suspect

    Do you ever challenge yourself (and your opinions) by reading from other than your own non-approved sources? That is not intended to be critical, I am interested in your answer.

    Interesting perspective. Thanks for sharing

    You take yourself too seriously, Dave. You seem to profess you alone are widely read here. Think again.

    I ask that honestly and based on the publicans you commonly reference.

    I wish I were more widely read than I am and I am sure there are those here that are more widely versed than me.
