Sidney,
I'm delighted. You finally spoke to me. I will take your points one at at time.
"I don't recall ever having a pleasant conversation with you!!
You misunderstood my post. No surprise there. I said to Raymond everytime I try to have a pleasant conversation with you.... Looks like we finally succeeded. Are you having fun yet?
" I would characterize your posts to be baiting, not pleasant"
Well, if asking questions is synonymous with 'baiting' I guess I'm guilty as charged. This is a message board Sidney. If you make extraordinary claims I think I have the right to ask you to provide extraordinary evidence to back up your claim. That can't be construed as baiting. What I think it is that you want is to be able to make any kind of claim you want and not have it questioned at all. Doesn't work that way. Isn't going to happen.
"Your usual tactic is to misquote me and say I was saying something I was not, trying to get me to defend a position I never took. Like calling my posts about Kennedy "research" that I was doing. I never said I was doing any research"
My usual tactic? Not including this post I'ved addressed you three times. And, exactly what misquote are you talking about? All I wanted to know is what you meant by your Kennedy remark and your source for the remark. Is asking for clarification 'my usual tactic'?
" Like calling my posts about Kennedy "research" that I was doing. I never said I was doing any research. I just posted a version I heard long ago that makes sense and that I believe"
My fault on this one. I foolishly surmised that after I asked you about your Kennedy/Chappaquidick remark that you might want to research the veracity of your answer. I apologize for giving you too much credit.
"I just posted a version I heard long ago that makes sense and that I believe. Take it or leave it"
I don't doubt you 'believe it', but your version is not accurate and therefore makes no sense. I'm not obliged, however, to 'take it or leave it'. This is a message board where all of us may excercise the American right to freedom of speech even if all the people on this board aren't Americans.
"Ray can jump in any time he wants"
Yes he can. I have the same right.
"Why can you and your cronies tag team but we can't?"
Cronies? I don't know their real names. I don't have their addresses or phone numbers. I bet you Ray and do. In any event who says you can't tag team. I've been verbally assailed on numerous occassions by multiple proponents of anti-zionist/anti-Bush/anti-American demagogues. It's interesting too. They always seem to support each other and never but never utter a single word of disagreement to each other. Come to think of it kind of like you and Ray.
"I think most of the Bush supporters would love a fascist state in America anyhow. Like you."
I am a Bush supporter. Most of my friends support Bush. None of us want a facist state. Quite the contrary. Democracy may have it's faults, but it's still second to none as a political system. You are incorrect about this as you are about so many things.
"You could then use the anti-terrorist laws and label us as enemies of the state and round us up! Political prisoners in the USA."
This is the most interesting statement you made in your post. What do you mean by 'us'? Are you an American citizen, a foreign national...a liberal? You seem to have an 'us' vs 'them' mentality in your politics. I think I know who you mean by 'them' may I ask who 'us' is?
Let me guess, my asking for clarification is just another 'tactic'...right?
For the record, I am utterly opposed to the 'rounding up' of any law abiding citizen, emigre or visitor to our great nation. You and your friends aren't breaking any laws are you? |
