| | :: We both know that Wikipedia pushes liberal bias. The problem, as I mentioned, is that they manage to present their bias in such a way that, to the average person, it doesn't look like bias! They maintain an excellent facade of objectivity, giving readers the impression that "we went looking for information on this issue with no bias, and just found a lot more liberal sources than conservative ones, so obviously the liberal ones are right." This is what Conservapedia needs to do to compete - indeed, it should be even easier for us, as (as you mentioned) we're writing the truth, and it's always easy to make the truth look objective. The problem is that this article, as it stands, does not make the truth look objective and convincing - it makes the truth look like the biased rantings of a conservative nutjob, etc. etc. | | :: We both know that Wikipedia pushes liberal bias.
