Give it up, Carry_Okie is one of the most informed people I know. His research is impeccable.>>

He's also one of the most pompous and arrogant too, his big head preceeds himself.

(From Post 19
Get your facts straight before posting, please.)

He has a problem reading the Enlish Language since the paragraph posted below (from post 1) NEVER STATED the TIDES FOUNDATION STARTED these organizations the word OR was used which means the Tides foundation EITHER started OR managed OR funded those agencies. He needs to be a little less critical of posters, get off his high horse and take a valium. If he didn't want to enter into a dialogue he could have kept his big mouth shut, ignored the post or freep-mailed me stating that some of the information wasn't correct.

I saw a website and thought it might be of interest to freepers. If he had a problem with it, he should have used his knowledge and contact the Capital Research Center to inform them that the facts were wrong and that he was right, He did not do that.

I trust the people of the Capital Research Center more than him. And if the Capital Research Center states that his research is right and they are wrong, I will state for the record that Carrie Okie is an expert, until then...

From post 1 "Here are a few notable nonprofits started, managed OR funded by Tides: the Natural Resources Defense Council, Greenpeace, Union of Concerned Scientists, Environmental Working Group and the Ruckus Society. The Tides Foundation continues to fund many of these groups, which are in the forefront of left-wing activism. "

Nowhere did it say in the above paragraph that the Tides Foundation STARTED Greenpeace as carrie stated in post 19. The word "OR" was used to indicate that a Group of Agencies listed was somehow influenced by the Tides Foundation by either donations, mangement OR starting. Then it stated that the "Tides Foundation continues to FUND many of those groups....."

You are miss reading him. Trust me on that one, I know the man personally. Believe me when I say I still would trust his research over CRC anyday. He is that good.

Of course not. If they are wrong, why should he donate his valuable time and energy to correct their mistakes? I wouldn't. He doesn't get paid for that.
