Have you really been stewing over that question since August of 2003?

Not at all. I wasn't and haven't been 'stewing' over any topic described or discussed in this forum.

To the contrary, I've been enjoying the erosion of credibility that the conspiracy theories endorsed here have suffered. In particular, it has been particularly enjoyable to have contributed to that steady, incremental process by way of rigorous questioning and falsification.

Do you think I'd have been periodically challenging you on this point if I thought for a moment that you'd ever answer distinctly and/or provide a credible source?

It was reported by the Associated Press, quoting White House sources.

I'll address the credibility of the source in the next response, but this comment makes for an interesting and instructive aside: if the thesis of this thread is that Bush and his administration are liars, doesn't it strain your already-exhausted logic to simultaneously, selectively, cite their comments as evidence?

Is that credible enough for you?

Well that might be, yes. Of course, that isn't what you've provided.

"Infowars"? Does that source seem either credible or even impartial to you?

More appropriately: Does a look at the homepage of that website seem impartial enough that I might trust what is being represented as an article transcription over, say, a link to the actual Associated Press article on the AP website?

I can't help but wonder why you didn't just type in "Bush cipro anthrax" in your favorite search engine and look it up yourself, rather than waiting for a year and a half for me to repost information that has been discussed on this board more than a few times.

Yawn. Recycling already?

Yes, I've already impaled you on this - your - point.

That amazes me. It truly does.

That's unsurprising.

Are you really as helpless as you pretend to be?

Earlier, you (somehow) confused skepticism with laziness. Now, evidently, you're confusing skepticism with "helpless[ness]", and moreover aren't, as you put it, certain as to whether such is actual or "pretend."

It all sort of underscores my earlier comments about your grasp, however failing, of the English language. Wouldn't you say?

*****

So: is the next stop on your slow-but-entertainingly-circuitous road to understanding?
