re: #130 non obama mama

Feel free to explain how the particular MEMRI translation I linked was inaccurate. Otherwise, you are engaging in an ad hominem and anti-intellectual attack.

I would like to add that LGF links to MEMRI, so at least this site finds its research to be sound.

I don’t speak Arabic! Clearly I’m not going to be able to translate it myself, no matter how much boldface you use. LGF can link to whatever they like, but when I can easily stumble across political details of this organization without even trying, I suspect its motives. It is a political think tank.

Are you actually claiming they’re impartial? You’re actually claiming they’re not a partisan entity? Calling them a clearly partisan entity with questions about the validity of their translations is not an ad-hominem attack. You are misusing the term ad-hominem.

How about this. You show me a translation that does NOT come from a think tank, and we’ll talk.
