: More interesting is how liberals deny their bias. Any guess as to whether the above two commentators are themselves liberal??? Notice how they don't disclose their own view. Conservapedia discloses its point-of-view, but Wikipedia denies its.--[[User:Aschlafly|Aschlafly]] 21:50, 15 March 2007 (EDT)

:: So... if 98% of the population were moderate, 1% liberal, and 1% conservative, you would contend that, in fact, it had a 99% liberal bias? The classic "Those who are not '''with''' us are '''against''' us? I think most would contend that the introduction of moderates would bring discussion closer to the ''center'', not automatically push it to either fringe.
:: Or is there perhaps a more logical, mathematical way to construct the "6 times" figure that you could explain to the multitude of us who have arrived at 225% instead? Both HdelBrook and I used mathematical explanations based on the most generous basic situation. If you'd like to dismiss our arguments, the simplest method is to provide an actual counterargument - in this case, just show your math. You don't need to attack the opposing arguments, just defend your own. [[User:Zondergard|Zondergard]] (who considers himself largely moderate, in the interest of full disclosure)
Sorry, I forgot to disclose my view. I believe that committing math errors is a display of ignorance, not of conservatism. [[User:Hdelbrook|Hdelbrook]] 21:57, 15 March 2007 (EDT)
