Jake the problem is that you don't start out with the truth.
You read something on DailyKos or the NYT and you take it as fact, and you don't question it.
This is what these left wing sources rely on. That nothing will be questioned. That's because the libs don't want to question them, they want to believe them.
They said that Pres. Bush falsely said that Hussein did 911. However, did you ever question it? Did you ever ask yourself did you ever hear Pres. Bush say that? If you did, and investigate it you would find out he didn't, but said the opposite.
The lefty sources say that Al Qaida had nothing to do with Hussein? Did you question that? How do they know? In fact, the CIA, and DOD, in declassified memos stated that there was cooperation and ties that went back a decade.
The lefty sources said that Hussein didn't have WMD. Did you question that? Are you really that unable to understand that just because they weren't found after months of notice that Hussein had that we were coming, that he could have destroyed or moved them? Why is this so difficult to understand? Are you going to truely ignore that your entire democrat leadership including Bil Clinton, Hillary, Al Gore, Kerry , and Ted Kennedy said the same thing?
Your lefty sources say how horrible it was that terrorists were waterboarded? However, did you ever question why was it used? What information was gained? What was the criteria for using them? What would have happened if it wasn't used? Did it stop a major terrorist attack because it was used? It did, because waterboarding was used it stopped a terrorist attack of terrorists flying a plane into a Los Angeles building.
At least do yourself a favor and question everything. Ask yourself if these things can be backed up or not.
