1. You now say "You didn't say 'telling the publsher.'" But I originally wrote "did he tell them something like 'my family came from Kenya'" and you yourself turned that into
You claimed Obama "told" this information to a so-called "flunky"
and
in this construction from your earlier post, "flunky" is part of "them."
So first you claim I said he told the flunky because he told the publisher, and now you claim I didn't say he told the publisher. Forgive me if I don't try to make sense of that.
2. You write "the rest of your point is meaningless because there was no 'flunky.'" But the woman who says she made the fact-checking error says she was "an agency assistant at the time." Now you're claiming not just that she's lying when she says it was a fact-checking error, but that she doesn't even really exist at all!
And that's as far into your hall of mirrors as I intend to go.
Wow, this is complete nonsense. All you’re doing is talking in circles and trying to put words in my mouth. I didn’t say the woman who claimed a “fact checking error” was lying. I said that by calling it a fact checking error, it means that she accepted the facts as they were given to her by someone else, and according to their procedures, that would have been from the author, which was Obama. I take her at her word. She might be covering for Obama, but I didn’t say she was lying. Obama wrote his bio. She said she didn’t check his facts. But she wouldn’t have any reason to do so. Most people would not make a mistake about their place of birth when they write their own bios. There should be no reason for her to go back and check the fact. And even if she did, there’s no evidence to show that fact would have been changed in 1991.
