A great example of why this sort of political advertising works wonders. People take it at face value. Quotes used out of context survive decades... Heck, lets take it further and not even make it a quote at all, like in this case... yet people buy it at face value. You pretty much can't trust anything you read from any source with an agenda.MeMelYup wrote:I think Rep.

I'm not sure I criticize all the "OCT folks". Leadership, yes within context... Entire membership no. And I'm not going to associate them with Obama and Liberals, which seem to be worst allowable descriptor on this forum. There probably is some level of common ground within the membership, why alienate everyone? That's not what we're about.
OCT leadership should factually address the questions.. If I was an OCT member, I'd want to know the answers. And as someone who supports some of what they're after (not necessarily how they do it), I'm interested in hearing their response. These are important issues that OCT membership has the right to know about.
