Third, what we DO know is that the message includes a request for you not to read or respond to my posts, and that you rudely continue to butt in where not welcome.
This is a public forum. Don't like people responding to your posts? Open your own forum somewhere.
You lie on a regular basis, at least if being reckless in your statements and posting false things as a result can be called lying.
Please provide a link to a thread where I posted something false. Note the "lie" you are claiming is explained below and is, in fact, not a lie.
First, that's a lie on the facts. There are threads where the theme has been to *defend* Bush against a wrong attack; and others where I've criticized a democrat, such as Obama; and others yet that don't involve the parties, but discuss some other issue - perhaps Wall Street, or maybe even history not even involving the US at all.
I stand by my claim, and note I said "it seems," which doesn't make it a statement of fact but merely a perception. Therefore it is not a lie. You are acknowledged by many as perhaps the most partisan poster on these forums and it didn't happen that way by accident.
The fact is you are hgihly deluded and can't tell what an accurate post is, IMO. You simply see Republicans attacked a lot and assume that that means the posts are wrong.
You are the highly deluded one and are now trying to position yourself to blame the Republicans if health care reform (in this case, the bill with a public option) fails to pass and are trying to play semantic games on who is to blame for what.
Your second of two points above is also a lie, insofar as it misrepresents what I said.
You claim that I *only* blame Republicans if health care fails.
First, the topic was not health care failing, but rather the public option failing.
Second, I *repeatedly* said that you can say the Democrats can be clamed for a lack of unity to get it passed.
To quote the first sentence of my earlier post:
In the sense that Democrats can be blamed for not having 100% unity, that's true.
And the last sentence:
Sure, blame the minority of Democrats who vote against the piublic option ...
So, you made the error of not understanding my post and posting a falst response, and a misrepresentation of it.
I did understand your post, but I saw through it. "Oh yeah, blame the Democrats for lack of party unity, BUT..." was the flavor of your post. And of course, the "BUT" part was your characteristic "Aha! The Republicans deserve MORE blame since more of them, as a percentage of their population in Congress, oppose it."
Had you responded to concerns with any effort to resolve them, had you demanded 'proof' earlier, I'd have responded.
Check the dates on the thread and the wording -- none of it was offensive and you had ample time to respond.
But as for lies, you can see above with your misrepresentation of my post, with your false claim about 'every' post of mine only blaming Republicans. But those are minor lies for you - the more typical larger lies can be seen in the preceding post quoted at the top, and you do not deserve any discussion on the matter.
Again, it looks like Craig needs to read up a little on what the word "seems" means. Allow me:
seems: (1) To appear to one's own opinion or mind
(2) To give the impression of being; appear
In other words, use of the word "seems" indicates you are stating something as an impression, not as a fact. Which means it cannot, by definition, be a lie. Oops, wrong again!
By the way, I am still waiting for you to refute/provide more information in the California IOU thread. I suspect you won't because I suspect you were blatantly wrong and you know it.
I don't recall anything you said in that thread, and I'm not interested because of your posting history as discussed. I likely saw your name and did not read it.
If you want to try to turn over a new leaf, send me a PM acknowleding the problem instead of denying it, with a pointer to that thread, and I'll then respond.
SURE you don't remember it. The post where you spoke about the licensing fee suspension being lifted and Gray Davis being booted for it. Of course you conveniently forgot to mention a few key facts. Look it up for yourself. The fact you didn't respond shows your true colors.
So far, this whole exhange - your responding to my post against my request, with misrepresentations, offensive and false attacks - doesn't help your case.
Nor does repeatedly being a partisan hack who posts barely readable posts help yours.
