FWIW, I'm finally catching up on your posts here since I
left for California nearly a month ago. Needless to say
your perception of reality is at best your perception of
it. Sadly, it is not reality based.
RE: The utter BS article, Goodbye and Good Riddance, you said.....
<font color=blue>
That pretty much sums up the difference between Bush Republicans and the rest of the United States.....

I think you will find that the article was about Reagan.
Your comments about Bush were your personal opinion, which
is off topic on this thread. That is unless you can
support it with relevant, widely accepted facts. Or, if
you firmly believe that your opinion is widely divergent
from reality (the basic premise of discussion on this
thread). Then it would have been on topic. Since you
obviously believe your opinion is spot on, you were
clearly off topic once again.
In my reply, I specifically asked that you to respond
whether or not you felt the article was a prime example of
reality defying misperceptions, lies & gross distortions &
to let the thread know your stance on this particular
article before posting further on this thread.
You did have the following to say about the article....
<font color=blue>
Goodbye and Good Riddance shows no appreciation of the divergent values that make up America or even a dialogue. It merely says 'this is my ball and my game and I make the rules,' and while that may be true here, on a national level that doesn't work, people get pissed off and elections are lost, unless of course you get your brother to disenfranchise enough legitimate voters to win an election illegally.<font color=black>
Unfortunately that didn't answer what I asked of you. Even
more unfortunately, your diatribe POV about Bush cannot be
backed up by credible evidence that is widely accepted as
factually accurate. FWIW, it's mostly baseless rubbish.
That's a fact.
Soooo once again you have blithely violated the community
standards established for this thread (I.E. the tenets of
this thread) by posting the article, "Goodbye and Good
Riddance" & establishing whether it was reality based or
reality defying. You violated community standards by
posting your unsupportable, reality defying opinion & also
by making personal attacks (see below).
Meanwhile, in this post, you make this assertion.....

I suspect you will again boot me from your thread; not because I have deviated from your guidelines, nor because I am a Kool Aid drinking lefty - because neither is true, but because I am a fly in the ointment. If you think that salves (pun intended) something or protects what you think is true you are wrong. I adhere to the tenets of your thread header and ask that you do too, except you can feel free to insult me as much as you wish, because you have no idea who you are talking about and resultantly I find your insults comical.

As I have already stated, your perception of reality is at
best your perception of it.
You do not come close to adhering to the thread tenets. It
is your perception that you do so, but your perception is
at odds with reality.
As for who insults whom, the reality is that you hurl
insults freely that you perceive to be factual
observations. Unfortunately, those insults are not reality
based.
Hell in your reply you said I have no idea what I'm
talking about. Isn't that an insult? In fact, I'd say it's
a baseless insult. You would be hard pressed to provide
credible evidence to establish that I am essentially
clueless about any important subject I have opined upon,
let alone the issues where we have divergent POV's.
As for me, any perceived insults I may make of you
can be shown to have a genuine basis in reality. IMO,
there is a real difference between baseless insults &
accurate descriptions of behavior.
If you wish to disagree, feel free to list a few of my
insults. I'll list a few of yours. Then we both can use
each others own words posted right here on SI to see if
the insults are reality based assessments or simply
baseless insults.
I'm confident of the overall outcome. Are you? |
