I never called you a liar; I said I thought that you jumped to the conclusion that he was just hired. It's a natural mistake to have made in the heat of the moment when you saw him identified as a consultant, and the thought was exacerbated by Stephanopoulos' misleading remark.

When I pointed out that he had been employed by ABC back in August, you even said, "I bet they let him go and hired him back."

If I misunderstood you, I apologize. Looking back on the thread, I'm certainly not the only one who interpreted what you wrote in that way. Since you didn't mean that he was newly hired, maybe you could write the Admin Moderator and request that the headline be changed (from "Clarke Takes Position..." to, say, "Clarke Holds Position...") and also that the thread be removed from Breaking News.

I had no idea that other people could place a thread in Breaking News; I thought the poster had to do that.

I'm sorry that this seems to have gotten personal; I didn't intend for that to happen. As conservatives, I just think we have the facts on our side and so should be scrupulously accurate.

You made it personal when you characterized MY posts -- and used the words "made it up."
