Freeper: "Our strength is in the facts"
http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-bloggers/2487765/posts

Tom Coburn is exactly correct. Most liberals are good are good hearted and well intentioned. Likewise most of those who supported the Bolshevik revolution were good hearted and well intentioned.

We make a mistake in attacking people’s character and motives. Our strength is in the facts. The fact is that many well intentioned people are going to hell.

1. Which facts?
The factual facts, or the non-factual facts? They deserve equal time, after all.

2. Here's an interesting post from the FR thread.
To: Federalist Patriot

Nice of you to make sure this is out of context in what Dr. Tom was saying.

It was so earth shattering our local media didn’t even cover the event.

Anyone who cannot take what some Fox News people say and dispute it are not thinking. Dr. Coburn has NEVER been about personally attacking anyone. You go after someone’s agenda not after the person themselves. What a novel idea — have the debate on issues not personalities. He is also a stickler for wshat the law says not what some people want it to say.

Paul Ryan and Tom Coburn probably know the current Obamacare law better then anyone else in America because they have read it.

What’s your beef with Coburn — he doesn’t want to trash someone personally and he believes that you should stay informed from a bunch of sources instead of just Fox News?

Shame on Dr. Coburn for wanting us to think!

7. Seems like that person should switch sides
The AIP (anti-intellectual populist) party isn't interested in "stay informed from a bunch of sources".

4. The only fact about freepers
Is the fact that they don't have the brains God gave a truckload of rocks, either individually or collectively.

6. See, ya can't even get that right, Freepers.
No, your strength is in anti-intellectual populism, facts have been irrelevant to the right for a long, long time. One comment by one Senator who's normally an ass hole does NOT redeem your Group Of Psychos (GOP) party.
