Shres the "paper or plastic" king, mentioned Steve's eloquent comment about Bob Brinker's deceptive answer to the QQQQ question, but surprisingly, he didn't mention this good one from Honey's Bob Brinker Beehive Buzz:

Title: Bob begs the question

In response to Why Brinker's Want Beehive to Just Disappear posted by honeyoneohone:

Bob Brinker said: "The reason we did it at that time, is because we thought it from a timing standpoint it was a good opportunity to do it. So that was the rationale behind the reduction that was made in the newsletter in the April edition. Thanks for the call. 1-800-xxx-xxxx. Jim's with us in Washington...."

This is what "begging the question" really means. You don't really provide any new information or explanation. You merely restate the premise in a slightly different way, giving the appearance of answering without actually answering.

"The reason we did it was, we thought it was a good time to do it."

"The reason Mary is so popular is because she has so many friends."

Begging the question....
