   I can't even count the number of a) purely untrue b) likely untrue and at   
   least, totally unsubstantiated, c) unqualified assertions, d)intentional   
   lies fill that web page.   
      
   the idea that all liberals believe 2 things, 1) iq doesn't matter and   
   doesn't exist and 2) liberals have a higher IQ than republicans...   
      
   just THINK about that statement.   
      
   ALL liberals believe that they have a higher measure of something they don't   
   even believe exists?   
      
   the internet is NOT a place to do research... i find it so aggravating when   
   little kids post websites that say "Al Gore ate a dog! " and there's "proof"   
   because "someone said it" and there's an animated Gif of a dog!   
      
   I don't know if it's part of the curriculum in the states, being from canada   
   myself, but doens't anyone there know how to criticize sources and discern   
   quality information?   
      
   Are there NO critical thinking skills requirements to graduate from junior   
   high in the USA?   
      
   if not.. YIKES... what ARE you guys learning?  cleaning guns?
