DG,
KTC is a coward. The bulk of this article consists of quotes from The New York Times' own Ombudsman, who ends up ripping his own propaganda rag a new one with the fact that their hit piece against the natural gas industry was at best, unverified innuendo, and at worst, simply pure fraud. But, this is a typical display of cowardice by KTC ... he will not read the articles I post, even though they are filled with direct quotes, verified facts, and links to objective sources of information that support the contentions presented, because he cannot stand to have his religious zeal for leftist ideology challenged. KTC childishly tries to mask his cowardice by lamely dismissing the articles because they do not come from his preapproved list of leftist propaganda sources, but in the end, all he does is prove that, as a slavish leftist, he has no intellectual curiosity for the truth. I pity KTC, but I'm not going to waste any more time on his snarky, empty-headed dismissiveness of articles that do not conform to his preapproved leftist propaganda - 'cuz that's his personal problem, not mine.
