>>This must be your invention.

Or maybe just slang. Haven't you ever heard the phrase "Whatta maroon?" I have also seen it spelled "moroon", but either way, there is no slur against West Indian slaves.

>>I can accept your criticism of me as a moron

Good, they say acceptance is the first step in any recovery.

>>I have come to understand that your arguing style is to launch into ad hominem epithets when your arguments fail you.

My arguments have never failed me, though I do use shorthand sometimes. Good Clintonism, though.

Aw c'mon jhild. "What a maroon" was used countless times by Bugs Bunny in describing his foils. It's a 'funny' way to say moron. Go after Warner Bros. if you will.
