I agree that the initial messages that they have collected can be very one sided. However, those e-mails or otherwise are just posted as Snopes receives them. There are more to those couple of pages than what I posted, but that data is just the original message as Snopes found it and posted it. The text I posted here is what Snopes actually wrote in response to those e-mails, etc.

I hate forwarded e-mails for this reason. I've got a friend who is a diehard supporter of Bush and he sends out that sort of propagandistic BS all the time. I usually ignore it, but once in a while I use Snopes to debunk it. It's fun because he doesn't know what to say in response.

As for your "fall into dementia", Ric... welcome to the party.
