I find it distressing that the argument on so many issues is so bound up with political agendi (?) that we cannot even get agreement on basic facts.
Its "our" facts versus "your" facts. This ought not to be. There are FACTS and then there is interpretation of those facts. We can argue about interpretation, but there should be no argument over the facts, themselves.
Is it that no one trusts anyone else to make the "right" decision--meaning, "agree with me"? So we have to tilt the facts to make the "right" decision obvious, even to the silly people that don't agree with me.
