This is intellectually lazy and weak. If you are disputing that the bias or leanings or undercurrent of an author or source are material to a proper analysis of a writing, say so, so we can all laugh out loud. If you are saying that I have wrongly attributed such bias to specific authors or sources, say that too, and we can hash that out. But, frankly, when I constantly see the hard-core liberal pundits being cited here as neutral sources of raw data, my reponse is going to be a constant harping on why one should probably not cosider their opinions and musings to be raw data. If I do it too often for you, consider maybe that that is a reflection on how often people here cite from crap.
