Oh, look, lawyer talk, what fun.

You commented on Watson's nipple posts without disapproval, I should have said, so you couldn't quibble and call me a liar.

Now I'll say it that way, since it's six of one and half a dozen of the other. Here it is:

<If you comment without disapproval on Watson's daughter-nipple posting, I suggest you do the same on my daughter-crotchrubbing posting.>

(Otherwise you might look as though you have a double standard. Wouldn't that amaze everyone!)

I'm glad that you've acknowledged that my statement didn't have to be interpreted as a lie, since there wasn't one. When you declared it was a lie, you assumed a fact not in evidence. But I am not calling you a liar for that, because I am more polite than you are.

I assumed that your comment...

which offered the reason for Watson's post without indicating any disapproval at all...

implied a tacit approval.

I now know that to a lawyer who was in the position in which you found yourself, that had deniability.
