The inherent flaw in your logic, your posts in this thread, and this idea is simple; the number of true "facts" in Politics is tiny. Things like dollars spent and bills voted on are
sometimes correct, but assumptions about
how things happened are always conjecture and not fact. Even how
someone acted is not a factual composition, but a summary of information and biases. Just because you want to call some things facts and other things opinions does not make them truly so. Try to recognize that even encyclopedic 'facts' are biased by their writers, too.
