jeffersondem: "Do you remember who introduced, and built an argument around, the word “suppose” in this thread?

Hint: “Still, for many decades most African-Americans voted Republican, so one must suppose we were the lesser of those two evils.”

"It took you exactly one post to repudiate your own words."

No, just one word: "suppose", that thought should have been expressed more strongly.
So can I take it, while you're straining at the "supposed" gnat, you fully accept the rest of my posts?
If so, that's fine, I'll agree, you can have "suppose" and I'll take everything else.

Deal?
Or are you still on the prod to chivvy this mess & gom into your tally-book?

“Or are you still on the prod to chivvy this mess & gom into your tally-book?”

Beautiful, clear, concise poetry. I couldn't have said it better myself.

Your education was worth every penny spent.

Another ill-advised supposition.
