Proving a negative

Tom Brosz — 3/5/2004 4:05:19 AM (archived)

I don't know. Doesn't the fact that you are apparently out in the sticks, setting up a solar power system with a local water supply, and are extremely paranoid about your real name and e-mail address, lead a reasonable mind to think you may be a drug dealer? Can you prove you aren't? ;)

I can think of many reasons why Bush and others don't want to expose every aspect of the anti-terror process to the public. And if anything at all is withheld, they will be treated exactly the same as if they'd never released anything. And you know damn well you and the Democrats don't give a shit about the "truth." Like with the records on the National Guard flap, the Left is just fishing for places to find political weapons. They've come up pretty dry so far.

- A feeble bluff by democrats with a very hand (n/t) - ebnelson - 3/7/2004 1:53:01 AM
  - Was that intended to be a meaningful statement? Or did you just have your random noise generator turned on... (n/t) - Davin L. - 3/7/2004 3:54:38 AM
    - >sigh< 'very' weak hand. thanks for paying attention. (n/t) - ebnelson - 3/8/2004 5:19:57 AM

  - You're exactly right Justin. The ad was a strawman ad, and the Kerry folks unwhitingly walked right into the trap. - Scott Evil - 3/5/2004 7:12:55 PM
    - Exercise for student: Get a basic text on rhetoric or logic and look up Strawman, then look up red herring (n/t) - Davin L. - 3/5/2004 8:41:39 PM

        And if you COULD follow my logic, you'd have even more fun! - Odin - 3/8/2004 2:32:36 AM
        
        Odin, even people who agree with you can't follow your logic. - Scott Evil - 3/8/2004 6:01:36 PM
