First, note that your first line is subsumed in my last possibility listed. I covered it.

Now, look at the post that I'm responding to, Eric.

You've taken an unsubstantiated report by one reporter at one rally and used it to represent the "face of [my] party". You've said that no one called the person who said "Kill him" out on it when it happened.

It would have been difficult for the person speaking at the rally at the time to do so for one simple reason.

No one else heard it.

And the quotes from Slavoski that you pulled simply illustrate a well-known truth -- it's very difficult to prove a negative in a case like this.

You -- with some justification -- wouldn't accept a Michelle Malkin post about "Abort Sarah Palin". But this was a big deal, based on one apparently inaccurate report that got echoed everywhere.

As I said in a post on my own LJ, I no longer trust any media source at face value, because they are all biased in one way or another.

I encourage you to use a healthy skepticism before trusting them yourself.
