LOL FOTFLMAO

Now, think about this, and, as always, the door is open for a proper and relevant response.

Well, Mr. Woody, at least it can be said that your comments have been consistent–although consistent distortions and smoke-and-mirror huffing aren’t adding much to the dialogue. I will take a moment to point out your error again, if only because I value truth and a proper characterization of events. Your response was not at all proper–it was diversionary (hence, the common apples and oranges metaphor I’ve invoked for your assistance) and irrelevant to the topic at hand. After I called you on this, you followed up with ad homina and a disgusting comment. I then described this to disabuse you of your incorrect representation of events, which was followed by more ad homina and psycho-babble. Three common behaviors of yours have been on display, each of which you’ve demonstrated in this series of exchanges at least twice: 1) evading the topic at hand; 2) engaging in ad homina; 3) accusing descriptions of your ad homina comments as, contradictorily, ad homina. Finally, when I steered (7/28, 7:04 AM) the conversation yet again back to the original topic you’ve succeeded in obscuring with every posted comment, you continued your meta-conversation and distortion, and then pretended your comments were a “proper response”. Not even remotely, I hate to break it to you. But then I suspect you recognize that, despite your evasive and emotional protestations. It is hard to be honest, maybe, particularly when someone digs himself into such a deep hole. But in the end it’s the better way–otherwise you end up flailing about and talking in circles (witness your spiralling string of posts…).

As always, of course, the door is open to those interested in serious exchange of ideas, to respond with relevant thoughts and comments. You may find this difficult, or undesirable, but my hope is that the message will eventually sink in and you can offer something useful to the discussion.

His Wisdom be with you.

LMAO!

Arrogance on your part is not a nice trait, and there certainly is no observable basis to justify it. I’m sorry that you not once addressed my intial response to you except to attack me repeatedly (while screaming the opposite) and to ignore and than misrepresent my analysis in your psychological babble fashion. Truly, you are a broken record that never gets to the end, but maybe you enjoy hearing the same line over and over–no matter how far from the truth it might be.

You may find it entertaining to try to aggravate me, but so does my teenager at times. However, he will outgrow that.

Perhaps you can find some comfort and allies in the halls of academia or journalism rather than a site that honestly tries to consider various sides of an issue.

As for me, I will be available to discuss issues with people who are open and able to see more than what they want to believe–and, can be honest in their responses. Sorry that you and I won’t be conversing based on that criteria.

It’s been very interesting and informative to watch someone who, while so clearly unwilling to engage in productive discussion, nevertheless effortlessly adds loads of words and comments as a “response”. Here’s another helpful schemata, showing the latest progression (er, devolution):

1: Apples, red vs. green.
2: Oranges, oranges, oranges!
1: Ahem, I said apples, red vs. green.
2: Stop saying apples, apples, apples! Oranges, bananas, [obscenity], [ad homina]!
1: Uh, okaaaaaay. How [odd, potty-mouthed, evasive, angry, etc.] these reactions have been. Let’s try one more time: apples, red vs. green.
2: I’m going home. And your commenting on my name-calling is name-calling! You’re the ad homina, you’re the ad homina!
1: (Hmm, where are those bananas…)

Once again, the original ideas are there, in words, available to be responded to in a relevant fashion. You’ve made your choice–more than once–to not continue the discussion, and instead supplant it with irrelevant ad homina (to be followed by curious meta-accusations of ad homina–of the description of your original ad homina. Priceless!). The beauty is that, at any time, like the Prodigal Son you can come back to the table and actually offer a relevant comment whenever you wish–the door is open, free for you to return if and when you have something prepared to move the conversation forward. I look forward to that, though perhaps this is unwarranted optimism. But that’s just my personality.

On the other hand, your politician-like squirming has provided its own style of entertainment–albeit a guilty sort, like eating junk food that in the end has little nutrition value. But then this, too, can be an informative experience–a warning to the rest of us.

God bless.

Such feigned offense and conclusions by one who used almost every post to criticize or attempt to ridicule me is simply a laugh–but so typical of people from the left.

Perhaps you should do a little praying yourself–oh, and learn to respond to an answer with more reason that you showed.

Sounds like a rationalization to me. Anything to evade the world of ideas and constructive dialogue, it appears. True, it’s easier navigating the waters of ad homina and personal feelings. In the end, though, I’m not sure that will benefit you much.
