I think they're ahead of the game on a lot of political stuff and I think their ability to generate research is astounding. Mike Brown's shooting was a perfect example. They've got arrows drawn all over maps of the area with angles of trajectory and, wow, really impressive body of work there. However, I wish Sundance would quit trying to write like some frickin' Duke sociology professor trying to get tenure by submitting a "research paper" full of stilted, academic jargon and hackneyed phrases to one of those "peer reviewed" sociology journals. Keep using the word "construct." They really like that. You'll get published for sure. On second thought, just try to write like a normal person. And learn the proper ways to use semi-colons. And then, of course, they've sold their souls to Donald Trump, whose conservative bona fides are no stronger than Carly Fiorina's when you get right down to it. Quote what she said in 2001 that didn't sound totally conservative, and you'll find 10 things Donald trump said in 2001 that were as bad or worse. There's a lot that CTH has to offer and I go there often, but there's a lot about the site that leaves much to be desired. Edited by IronMan, Sep 24 2015, 01:56 PM.
