Verified facts don’t always come pure, but with qualifiers. My warning radar always goes on alert when qualifiers are attached to facts. Qualifiers like: My best judgment . . . I think . . . As best I can tell . . . Usually reliable sources say . . . For the most part . . . We’ve been told . . . and the like. I don’t dismiss facts so qualified; but I’m cautious about taking them to the bank.
