Despite the current Bush administrations assualt on our freedoms, rights and individual liberties, the misleading assertions in this video tries to connect two otherwise unconnected cirucmstances) - After about an hour of research, I turned up the disparity in the directors parsing of disparate facts. Thanks goes out to Marinegunrock and Fedquip for questioning the validity of the claims being mentioned.

apparently everyone else knew this was a fake from the get go, how i didn't is beyond me. maybe cause there are tons of videos of girls dancing infront of webcams on youtube (not the pornography kind) and this seemed very plausible in this day and age of technology and provocative dancing for strangers.

As with the first video above, in light of all the "real, true" crazy facts, (this time of the mormon religion) I posted what I thought was credible information which turned out to be misleading and stretching the truth. Thanks goes out to Grimm & Gorgonheap for prodding to see sources that addressed the specifics of my claims. I am in the process of revising the assertions in my title to be more accurate.

So, my suggestion is that we have another channel named DUPE that I can throw these into :-)
(actually i just wanted to come clean and see if this has happened to others)

If i have posted this in the wrong section feel free to move this to where it would be appropriate.
