22. I don't know if it's a clearinghouse for hoaxes...
I think the problem is that so much damage has been done to our nation--and so many DUers are heartsick about it--that they'll believe just about anything if it says that times are changing (Rove indictment) or their suspicions about evil (200 at my own hands) are correct.

I do think that DU should carefully consider the items they read, whether from a leftist blog or a MSM organization. People shouldn't attack others for that.

People also shouldn't "trust" news sources just because they have a left slant.

Objectivity is something to which we all should adhere.
