I have a National Merit Scholar in the family. So thousands of erudite and peer reviewed articles are false news based on your hurt feelings?
You start out by being a Free Republic jerk to the author of a very good opinion article.
Someone rightly calls you out for being a jerk, so then you're a jerk to him or her.
Then, that person asks you to stop posting to them, so you double and triple down on being a jerk.
I think I would advise both kiryandil and jfd1776 to hit the Abuse button on you.
BTW - The Jerk Store called.
They're all out of you. You might want to touch base with them... ;-)
