I just love that little guy! Thanks for brightening my day!
Ithaca,
I will say that you are very smooth with presenting "facts" that make your side in an issue look good. You seem to be very good at including just enough "real facts" to cover the BS side of your arguments. Not hammerin ya, just pointing out what I think is obvious to alot who spend time arguing with you here.
That's why he's good at debate. Throw out enough rope and someone will make a fool of themself, which, for the most part invalidates their arguement since everyone focuses on the fopaw.
Someone has been pounding for source data for a while... Not just random quotes or copied reprints, factual source data... Something with some credibility.. I mean, you wouldn't quote the KKK on matters of minority rights, would you??
Well, much of the time here we're in a debate and I don't get into it to lose. If anyone wants to contradict what I post they're always free to. I do supply lots of backup and many that disagree with me don't supply anything to counterbalance it. I wish they'd try harder.
I know it's a lot harder to defend a point of view when you're wrong, so I understand why some posters spend more time attacking me than trying to prove their claims.
And I work hard at starting topics and keeping them going mostly because I'm hoping I'll learn something, or at least someone will learn something.
So if anyone doesn't like my topics why don't they ignore them and start more of their own? Too much work?
I'd much rather see my critics start lots of interesting topics and stimulate reams of discussion.
Have at it and quit whining, mike and Ten Bears!
How about showing us what you can do for a year or two?
