Also, correct me if I'm wrong but didn't George Orwell also say, "Political language - and with variations this is true of all political parties, from Conservatives to Anarchists - is designed to make lies sound truthful and murder respectable, and to give an appearance of solidity to pure wind."

| | + | :::::Orwell's quote criticizes the conservative ''party''. I also criticize the British Conservative Party! As to [[elementary proof]]s, there is "something" liberal about denying its significance. Liberals like to try to use math and science in deceptive ways to pull people away from the Bible. The concept of the elementary proof rains on their parade.--[[User:Aschlafly|Andy Schlafly]] 20:21, 12 December 2009 (EST) |

| | I went to a super liberal community college in Mass and they didn't allow us to use Wiki as a siting source because it's open source. We used databases with professors. Sorry Conservapedia, you lose on that count too. Now, if it's original source you want, you can find that on Wiki. It's a good place to start your research. I imagine that in some instances that's true for this site as well. | | I went to a super liberal community college in Mass and they didn't allow us to use Wiki as a siting source because it's open source.

| | :Dear Aschlafly, you made the claim that - to your knowledge - not a single student was helped in a meaningful way by wikipedia. To change your perception of wikipedia, ''one'' [[counterexample]] should be sufficient, and a couple of students have given such examples in this thread. Of course, each example is an anecdote - that's the very nature of counterexamples :-) | | :Dear Aschlafly, you made the claim that - to your knowledge - not a single student was helped in a meaningful way by wikipedia.
