Flame » in reply to re: Davin, you have not shown where you deserve my best . . .

The point of this conflict is, Dan:

Dan wrote: "As it stands, you refuse to read my words and open any form of coherent discussion on them, so why should I try?"

Dan, I have tried and tried to get you into discussion, to get you to post sources, to get you into an informed debate on this topic. Yet your typical response to any attempt is a phrase that sounds like a variation of:

"I am right, you are wrong, deal with it" or
"its just a fact that you are wrong".

Dan spires: "I believe what I know to be so. "

Facts, Sources, Reasoned arguments to support this? Any? I dare you.

Dan Wrote: "but was instead met with a stonewall of “yourewrongyourewrongyourewrongyourewrongyourewrongyourewrong ...”, ad infinitum, along with a slurry of profanities -- albeit feeble ones at best. "

Its FLAME, Dan. Look up at the big red letters. FLAME.

Dan wrote: "and yet you still fail to show where every inch of Iraq had been dutifully searched, above and below ground, to prove that WMD does not exist."

Shit, Dan, Surely you are not so daft. This is my point: If you don't know for ABSOLUTE sure, don't go killing 10-15,000 people. Because if you are not right, its MURDER. If you do it because you believe or think these folks pose a danger, but don't know thay are a danger, then its MURDER.

Im Angry at you Dan, because folks like you dragged my country into an act of muder. I am MEAN to you, Dan, because you refuse to even exhibit any moral decency and say: "Oh my, it IS a problem that none of those pre-war claims bore out" and "Oh My, it IS a problem that we cant find any terrorists".

What I WANT from you, and why I am Screaming at you, is to get you to exhibit the decency I thought you possessed and wake up from your dreamtime moral nap.

So you have the gas to reply to me, but not the gas to get into something substantial other than the emphatic statement that you are right and I am wrong. Oh, and I was born yesterday, and all that jazz.

Sorry, but you sound like E.P. Grondine. If you want to level the term Net Crank at me, then lets size you up against our very own Patented Net Crank here on the Zone:

Grondine Spires Lafon
Makes dismissive statments
about the incorrectness of
Others, without offering
contradicting sources or
reason......................................Y Y N

Insists that only he has true
knowlede of the facts, without
either stating those facts or
exhibiting a resume that makes
such claim believable...................Y Y N

Refuses to engage in an
arguiment that employs factual
sources that are publically
displayed for all to read and
coinsider...................................Y Y N

When backed into a corner,
makes personal insults to his
opponent (ie 'born yesterday').......Y Y N

When challenged on claims
of factual knowledge, relies upon
dismissives sunch as "not worth
my time" etc to wriggle out of
having to present any factual
knowledge................................Y Y N

Calls others cranks, but refuses
to find and state reasons why......Y Y N

Best Dan.
