You've been throwing medical articles up

I haven't "thrown up" any medical articles. For someone who says I've failed journalism 101, you prove here that you haven't passed forum posting 101. Since you are such a stickler for details, such as insisting that the Kerry statement must have quotes, it's interesting you assigned medical articles to me without even checking. You're not doing too well with forum accuracy.

And let me get this straight. According to your instructions:

1. Don't believe Kerry said it because there are no quotes.
2. Don't believe Kerry received the call on Saturday, read more into it than it says
3. Don't even believe yet that Kerry got a call from Reeve, even though there are articles that say he did.

Now that sounds tinfoil to me. No thanks.

I stand corrected. I saw your link to medicalnews.com at #271 and incorrectly connected that post to the medical articles posted by others.

You're the poster insisting that you know what Kerry said and meant based on numerous links that don't quote him.


And let me get this straight.

I will but you won't.


According to your instructions:

1. Don't believe Kerry said it because there are no quotes.

Wrong, I don't know exactly what Kerry said, and neither do you, because we don't yet have a precise quote regarding the phone message from Reeve..


2. Don't believe Kerry received the call on Saturday, read more into it than it says

Wrong, I have no idea what Kerry said about the call, and neither do you, because we don't have a quote that says what he said. We have a writer's paraphrasing of Kerry's remarks. Do you trust journalists to paraphrase accurately?


3. Don't even believe yet that Kerry got a call from Reeve, even though there are articles that say he did.

Isn't that the point of this whole thread? Whether or not Kerry actually received the call and the evidence one way or the other? I've said repeatedly that the evidence is inconclusive that he didn't. I also have allowed for the posibility that Kerry is indeed lying since he has lied before. I've said that the jury is still out. That's not only my belief, it's a fact.


Now that sounds tinfoil to me. No thanks.

LOL Failing to jump to a conclusion is tinfoil? Next!
