if I make an occasional mistake I always admit it.

What? When? Where? Now you're trying to plead the "Paul Krugman" defense. Doesn't fly here.

I do not pretend to be an expert like you.

Oxygen, please. Hurry.

I have never lied on these threads. Ever

You have certainly fabricated (which is not the same as lying -- see dictionary definitions posted earlier). You certainly lied about your age either now or when Carter ran.

Unlike you. You are from Michigan pretendign to be an expert on the California economy. So go tell Arnold. Offer him your wise counsel. I do not pretend to be an expert like you. You spend half your time putting together budget-balancing scenarios for California. So go to sacramento and ask for an audience with Arnold.

First of all, I said I once lived in Michigan. I live in Illinois now. Wouldn't want to lie about that. Second, it is not a lie to state facts about the State of California's finances supplied directly by the State of California. Numbers are just that: numbers. The numbers I posted are the State of California's record of its own finances. How is that a lie?

As for spending half my time on it, I probably spent less than an hour on all my posts on that subject combined. Despite being severely hobbled by an IQ that (though I've never had it measured and wouldn't post the score if I had) is likely less than 150.
