- And this one. I've noticed that Mr. Cramer practices what is commonly known
- as the "Big Lie" technique. That's when you say something completely un-
- supportable and outrageous that nobody could possibly believe. But if you
- repeat it often enough, people might gradually begin to accept it.
-
- Now, Mr. Cramer, if you have any evidence at all that homosexuals are trying
- to "legitimate" [sic] child molestation, please feel free to post it. Other-
- wise, it's simply another emotionally disturbed ad hominem attack.
