After that bit of irrelevant rhetoric I see no worth in the rest of the article.
So, you disagree with it because the journalist's right-wing agenda is different to your left-wing agenda. Fair enough. But what you have completely failed to do is address any of the facts raised in the article. You can't dismiss them simply because you don't like the politics of the person making them. Either his statements are true or they are false. If you believe them to be false, perhaps you could give some reasons?
