I make up my own mind based on the facts as I see them. sure ge has made mistakes in the past as we all have

"Mistakes"? More like several documented, proven lies in this very thread, not to mention numerous instances of taking my posts completely out of context to make it look like I was saying something I was not.

For example, in 499 he says I show a disdain for "intellectual property" with the connotation that I don't think patent and copyright should exist. He then posts a snippet of an earlier post where I said "'Intellectual Property' is a fiction and the term shouldn't be used."

Now read 502 (not by me) and 503 to see the context, which is that I am against the term "intellectual property" since it can result in confusion. Copyright, patent, trademark and trade secrets all operate under very different laws and concepts and therefore shouldn't be lumped together. In fact, that post was a response to confusion created by the term "IP."

Then look at 523 where I catch him doing it again. And again at 526. He of course never retracts any of it, never comes clean. He just gets caught in a lie and moves onto the next one.

Only a truly dishonest person can support such blatant, repeated, unrepentant dishonesty.

Obviously, since you keep trying to claim you support Intellectual Property when you're clearly on record against it. You just claimed in your last post that Intellectual Property isn't even "property" LOL.

You can try to play word games all you want, but based on your history and my memory of those posts I would probably see it the same way GE does. You are either playing a game of gotcha "I didn't say that exactly as you paraphrased", but the meaning and interpretation is there for most to see it that way. If you don't like your posts being misinterpretted try to write them more clearly to leave less room for interpretation.

The problem with this thread is you forget that you have a history of posts that others remember. People on CONSERVATIVE forums are generally pretty smart and they can remember your past posts that show your opinions/beliefs. Then when you post new items they are read in context of your history.

You suffer from the samething that swordmaker suffers from...you claim one thing, but when called on it you say I Never said that exactly. Which means your first statement is meaningless as it no longer is relevant to the discusion thread/question.
