> [@milroyj](#): > > And nary a one of your “links” is to a legitimate, unbiased, news source. Considering the conservative bias in the mainstream media, it’s not all that easy to find the truth. There’s also the problem that articles get archived and then aren’t available execpt for a fee. Sites like [truthout](http://www.truthout.org/) mirror many of these quickly-gone articles. You may not like bushlies, and wouldn’t like it even if it were called bushfibs or getyourbushon or any other thing, because it says things about your sweetheart that you don’t want to hear and especially don’t want others to hear, but everything there is SOURCED. Face it, my links are not “blathering nonsense,” they’re just things you don’t want to hear.
