Shooting up Dingers

Kadizzle was walking along a fence line by the lake hunting pheasants when his phone rang. Someone wanted to take him up on his bet. Kadizzle had bet the dingers on the Bismarck Tribune blog cite $500 that 15 out of 20 Canadians would prefer their health care to the American system. It turned out to be Big Jake. Big Jake is another Hooplehead buster that fights the right wing Hooples. Big Jake was just pulling Kadizzles leg, he knew it was a suckers bet. The Hoopleheads would never actually put their money on the lies of Rush Limbaugh and Fox News. Recently Kadizzle spent eight days in Canada and talked to twenty Canadians. Every one of them said they were well satisfied with their health care and could not believe the way Americans lied about their system.

This was the first conversation Kadizzle had with Big Jake. Big Jake does a good job of hitting the Hooples with facts and blows a lot of them out of the water. The conversation went on for a long time and The Commander wondered what happened to the hunt. It is always fun to talk to another fighter in the war against misinformation. So far Kadizzle has talked to two other blog addicted fools. It turned out Honest Omar is a boater, and Kadizzle has spent many hours with Honest Omar BSing, sharing articles and drinking wine.

Kadizzle has only spoken with one right wing dinger. It was a polite and good discussion. Someday for fun Kadizzle might invite all the blogg fighters left and right to breakfast in Bismarck. It would be fun to meet all the people who think you can reason with those on the other side of the universe.

Big Jake has an addiction equal to Kadizzle. Big Jake told a good story about how his grandson figured out that the guy who writes under the name Big Jake was his grandfather.

Kadizzle believes if you believe something, you should be able to support your belief with facts, and you should be able to express in writing what you believe. Our country is plagued with people who accept too much at face value. That is what brought Hitler to power, people unwilling to question what someone told them. Our country is in an economic crises and it is time for people to wake up.
