Spinning, spinning.

Stop that or you may hurt yourself

I see you give an impassioned opus on the idea of posting opinions. Some of us have a quaint notion of backing those opinions up with facts.

WTF? How do I back up my opinion of a speech with facts? I thought he looked rattled, paused alot, and looked and sounded as if he wasn't confident. How on earth can I produce an equation to prove that opinion as fact?

As I pointed out earlier, those of us who watched the interview actually posted what was said. It was anything but "rattled" or "incoherent".

Well, that is your opinion. Hardly a fact that can be proven beyond all doubt.

You may fling out such charges, but I asked and have yet to receive an example from you that would support your "opinion".

Charges? Since when does an opinion of one's demeanor constitute CHARGES?

Yikes. Get some perspective there.

First, it wasn't a speech, it was an interview. It's very simple. You said he was "incoherent". I'm waiting for you to produce an excerpt of the transcript that demonstrates such. You know, a sentence that doesn't make sense or is unintelligable. Something that shows "incoherence".

As to our posting what was actually said, why clearly it buttresses the opinion of those of us who heard clear and plainspoken answers to the questions. Not the "rattled and incoherent" performance you allege.
