::Well the thing is, yes the essay that essay quoted is found on a liberal site, however the essay makes direct quotes by what must be considered conservative people or at least trustworthy sources. Thus it appears to me that there is certainly a profitable debate to be had as to whether the people who say that AFA is anti-semitic are trustworthy sources. I personally don't know that you can simply disregard firsthand statements by seemingly trustworthy sources simply by saying that the essay that brought them together is hosted on a liberal site. Perhaps such an attitude is appropriate on this site, however, its not as clear cut as you think it is. I think the argument can be made both ways, especially when you are both calmer and not blocking each other.--[[User:DamianJohn|DamianJohn]] 13:10, 24 July 2008 (EDT)

:::Gentlemen,
:::It seems as if there's a reasonable compromise to be found here. Fox wishes to include information from the various sources listed above; Jinx would prefer that leftist cites not be referenced. Surely the answer is to locate those sources in their original form and cite those directly? For instance, the article "Homeless By Choice" can be found on the AFA's own website: http://www.afajournal.org/2005/march/3.05wasserman.asp. --[[User:Benp|Benp]] 14:04, 24 July 2008 (EDT)
