Your ev...Let's see if this can be explained to you. <BR/><BR/>Your evidence that Edwards is guilty of having told his staffer to do this is non other than your own bias against Edwards, which isn't evidence. <BR/><BR/>It was stated that a staffer acted independently. That the staffer may have had the impression from the conversation (which, if you actually read evidence that might contradict your beliefs, you know of) between Edwards and his wife, is not withstanding the lack of evidence that a direct order was given, and no one has claimed that it was. Believe what you want about the situation, it is irrelevant.<BR/><BR/>Edwards never, so far as I know, threw around his name, a staffer did. You cannot defacto blame leadership for every instance.<BR/><BR/>Furthermore, your entire commentary on Edwards is a red herring. Edwards is not a member of news journalism, not even a commentator in an official capacity. Edward behavior, or that of one of his staffers, represents an anecdotal bit of evidence that not all persons, liberal or not, behave with propriety, but it is not evidence, let alone proof, of inconsistency in fairness and balance on the liberal side. But I am not here to present all liberals as fair. <BR/><BR/>Your argument is a distraction.<BR/><BR/>You're stubborn and embarrasing defense of it, aside from the correction of my errors, an insult to reason.<BR/><BR/>You have violated more levels of fair discourse than my admitted errors ever have.<BR/><BR/>You only want to hear yourself speak.<BR/><BR/>Now, are you quite done being a dimwit? I for one am tired of reading your imbecilic rebuttals, as most of them are.WFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10892786804092675170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18027804.post-1164168310642227292006-11-21T23:05:00.000-05:002006-11-21T23:05:00.000-05:00"As far as I know, you aren't allowed to reserve P..."As far as I know, you aren't allowed to reserve PS#s at Wal Mart."<BR/><BR/>WHY do you think he threw around his NAME being an ex-SENATOR and ex-PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE?????<BR/><BR/>Give me a break!

Nothing you say is supported logically, you just defaultly choose the direct opposite of your already ludicrous arguments. And not all Democrats are liberals.

Besides which, I think I agreed that my vague reference to some people is inferior to your evidence of him as a moderate.<BR/><BR/>Btw, this might surprise you, but I actually felt sympathy for people that were calling Tom Delay guilty of crimes for which we was not convicted based on his supposed bullying behavior. <BR/><BR/>For an example someone can attest to, ask Claus how willing I was to accuse Bush of knowingly lying.WFGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10892786804092675170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18027804.post-1163997094616405622006-11-19T23:31:00.000-05:002006-11-19T23:31:00.000-05:00eff,You stating that Edwards is a moderate is enou...eff,<BR/><BR/>You stating that Edwards is a moderate is enough of a stretch of truth than even your typos or slip of what state he is from. The fact that you would even begin to cover for him by saying he really wasnt a democrat that he was more moderate has NOTHING to do with what he did! He is a democrat and he used his hypocritical ways to get something by using his position. You would not allow that behavior to go by without tarring and feathering a republican who might try that. So by you stating he was more moderate says you think that behavior is ok as long as its one of your own. <BR/><BR/>Democrats dont see bad behavior on the part of democrats, only when Republicans do it. Very hypocritical I must say. <BR/><BR/><BR/>I should reply to Michelles posts. Michelle thinks a blog spot is truth and uses them as links to such.

I'm up in the Senate most Tuesdays when they're in session. The first time I ever met you was when you walked on the stage tonight." [Dick Cheney, Vice Presidential Debate, 10/5/04]<BR/><BR/>FACT: Cheney Had Met Edwards on At Least Three Prior Occasions<BR/><BR/>"On Feb. 1, 2001, the vice president thanked Edwards by name at a Senate prayer breakfast and sat beside him during the event." [AP, 10/6/04]<BR/><BR/>"On April 8, 2001, Cheney and Edwards shook hands when they met off-camera during a taping of NBC's ‘Meet the Press,’ moderator Tim Russert said Wednesday on ‘Today.’" [AP, 10/6/04]<BR/><BR/>"On Jan. 8, 2003, the two met when the first-term North Carolina senator accompanied Elizabeth Dole to her swearing-in by Cheney as a North Carolina senator." [AP, 10/6/04]<BR/> <BR/>At least Edwards didn't shoot someone in the face to get the Playstation 3. If this story about Edwards is correct it is very hypocritical of him. Yet, that does not excuse the lies of our elected and appointed officials in this administration. Nor is it excuseable to say all leftyz or righties lie.

You know damn well I was referring to YOUR comparison of John Edwards and your attempt to explain the political leanings of South Carolina, to which he isn't a Senator. You on the other hand have lost all credibility on any subject ever discussed on this entire blog, simply because you can't be trusted to not lie."<BR/><BR/>I made an error, I didn't check my facts. I honestly thought he thought he was a S. Carolina Senator. If that's a lie, it wasn't malicious. However, I will concede that your contention that he is more accurately associated with the left because he was a running mate of Kerry's is superior to my reference to there existing opinions that he is a moderate. I have conceded to my errors. You don't care about that, you just want to be a bully. You also regularly parse and distort arguments, and half ass answer rebuttals, so where you get off lecturing people on factual errors is beyond me. But I shouldn't expect much from an immoral, paranoid psychopath, should I?<BR/><BR/> "This is one more example of leftyz using lies and disinformation to further their sick twisted agenda. You tried to justify Edwards actions by comparing him to the general political views of the voters in SC. You then pretended to know all about SC voters and attempted to explain how they felt and thought. Now that you know SC voters have nothing to do with Edwards, you're trying to escape with even more lies and avoid the issue" <BR/><BR/>You are a moron or need help bad. I haven't further lied, as you call it. I admitted I was wrong. You're seriously brain damaged. I made major factual and logical errors. What else do you want. I have admitted that you are largely correct. What is wrong with you?<BR/><BR/>"altogether. You sir are BUSTED for being the idiot fraud you are. Nothing that comes out of your postings can be trusted as fact in the future. You remind me of zombiemaster, who will be trying to explain himself away about his remarks towards the SI phtographer. One day he's posting how the site is funny as shit, the next day he's threatening them with violence. I'm sure your lies will continue and I'll be here to expose you for what you are. That's just what you leftyz love to do. Lie to the people." <BR/><BR/>You haven't the evidence to assert that, and you know it. My credibility is fine. You aren't qualified to judge it.
