You are a typical Fox news viewer that doesn't care that your information is cooked up in corporate boardrooms and fed to your small backward mind for the purpose of deceiving you into thinking a certain way only for the purposes of generating PROFIT.
And because you have obviously done no research on the sources of your information before you spew that slanted fiction here on GFY - I have done a little for you:
http://www.justfacts.com is a conservative smear and lie outlet founded by James D. Agresti
http://www.jerseyconservative.com/Pr...stiJames1.html
this clown wrote a book about the "facts" in the Bible being accurate hahahahaha!
He is also the author of Rational Conclusions, a highly researched book evidencing factual support for the Bible across numerous academic disciplines.
He also states right on his bogus slanted bullshit "just facts" website "In general parlance, we are conservative/libertarian in our viewpoints."
wake the fuck up VZ - you've been had.
