RedState.com to ban users quoting FACT CHECKERS (not snark, these idiots really mean it)

[Playinghardball]

Really? Doesn't this sum up all of modern conservativism?
When all the facts are against you, blame the fact-checkers. . .

So check out this post by Conservative RedState.com front pager streiff. It is just pathetic.

Quote a FactChecker Earn a Ban
In the past we’ve had a policy of banning people who argue in bad faith. As Politifact, and the whole menagerie of “fact checking” organizations have demonstrated themselves to be slavishly attached to the Administration’s nether regions I will consider quoting any of them, in a non-ironic way, as being evidence of arguing in bad faith and worthy of a ban.

What do you think?

I think you just divorced reality.
Mitt Romney created 100 million jobs as Gov of Massachusetts. Disagree? YOU'RE BANNED!

It's like open bar for liars. A place where lies and falsehoods can never be proven false. And CNN pays the founder of RedState.com Erick Erickson for his "commentary", the same guy who will now ban you from his website if you quote fact-checkers at him. I guess when CNN introduces Erickson they will have to ad a caveat to his byline (Founder of RedState.com, statements made at RedState.com are not intended to be a factual statement.)

1. Wow. Just wow.

Looks like whatever sane rethugs who are left are letting their dregs burn themselves out and then one day they will pick themselves up and start all over. Meanwhile the rest of us have to suffer through the insanity.

3. When Facts Are Against You

When facts are against you just ban facts. So who or what are people supposed to quote. If Paul Ryan blames President Obama for the closure of a auto plant can we quote our calendars? If Paul Ryan or Mitt Romney claim President Obama cut $700+ billion from Medicare can we quote their budgets? If Paul Ryan or Mitt Romney claim President Obama gutted the welfare work requirement can we quote the Health and Human Services memo concerning the subject. I do not think the problem for Romney/Ryan is the fact checkers. The problem is the facts.

CNN should bring this up with Eric Erickson. If he does not want to reverse his stance maybe it is time to let Erickson go. People like Erickson should be brought on TV and forced to prove their point. Give an example where fact checkers have conducted fact checks in President Obama's favor that have been factually inaccurate.
