Yeah, but just one look at him tells you he's a loon they're all a bunch of kooks.

 

LOL, compare the 2 resumes, after seeing Lafree's extensive resume, here is that Gremlin Potok's.

Note that fact that Potak's resume seems to imply that he has no education at at all, not even a high school graduate. The only highlights of his career are appearing on 1 left wing news source after another. The guy doesnt even have a redeemable quality worth while enough to put on his own wiki page.

Yet you think that some gremlin like Potok is a guy whose OPINION should be valid..... And my only question is.....based on what?

Early life and education[edit]
Potok's father was Jewish, but Potok does not consider himself Jewish and he was raised Christian. The son of Joan and Andrew Potok, he grew up in Plainfield, Vermont,[1][2] and studied at University of Chicago (from 1974 to 1978).

Career[edit]
He is the editor of quarterly investigative journal Intelligence Report. He has testified before the United States Senate, the United Nations High Commission on Human Rights and in other venues. He spent almost 20 years as reporter at several newspapers, including USA Today, the Dallas Times Herald, and the Miami Herald. The Intelligence Report received the 2007 Investigative Award part of the UTNE Independent Press Awards.[3]

He has appeared frequently on the Democracy Now! show.[4][5][6][7][8]

 

Resumes? As you said, we can know all we need to about a person from just their picture.

I had the same thought re Max months ago, when he was criticising some politician's thighs.
