I don't think this is an article at all - calling it an article suggests it's news, which is supposed to be objective, when obviously that's not the point of the piece of writing.
I'd call it an opinion piece, so he's allowed to have whatever bias he wants.

Very true, and where exactly did I say he wasn't allowed to have that opinion? What I did say is that using this guys opinion to support something that you are floating as FACT is weak at best. Make sense now? [/b][/quote]
Makes sense, no doubt (esp. after re-reading your post...my bad)...but, I'm not floating anything around as fact.
It seemed to me that Lurch, the original poster, posted an op-ed piece he agreed with/liked, (I assume) posted it, and pointed out why he agreed with it/why he liked it...not "here's my opinion, and here's an objective article supporting it".
