“He/she knows this silly resigned vs. thrown out is a red-herring”
A red herring? Which I am supposed to be using to distract everyone from you from the fact that Nixon’s crime was lesser than Obama’s? Well, I happen to think the situation wasn’t as serious as it was at the time and has since been made out to be, but impeachable nonetheless. However, an illegitimate president would certainly be more serious.
In other words, I agree with the original point. So why would I be using a re herring? Because it wasn’t a red herring. Just like it’s not a red herring when people correct other factual or grammatical errors which have no bearing on the larger point. Imagine, if it makes you feel better, that instead of committing a factual error in hyperbolizing a point, the original post accidentally put down the wrong historical date or failed to capitalize the first letter of a sentence.
“Then we’d be dicussing it for another 20 posts”
Why on earth would you carry on discussing whether I was male or female for another 20 posts? That’d be ridiculous.
Sure it would be ridiculous for me, but it wouldn't stop you from attempting it. Just like you're doing with this Nixon thing. So, on this topic I am going to follow my own advice and stop feeding the troll.
Have fun!
