As for your reference to my ignorance... I find it interesting that you resort to insults instead of resorting to logic. That indicates that you have a real problem articulating your views. And that implies ignorance.
Anyway, I'm tired of this nonsense. You seem intent on proving just how brilliant you are and I couldn't care less whether you're a genius or a twit. So, I have no intention of engaging in this nonsense any further.
For some reason you took issue with me making the point that I see no purpose in discussing Jennings' views and calling them treasonous on the day of his death. He had a family who are mourning his death. I see no point in adding to their pain.
We can debate our disagreements with Peter Jennings' positions later. But the man just passed away. I took the same position when Pres Reagan, bless his heart, passed away.
So...it's been just a thrill trading barbs with you, but I think I better move on to something a little more important....like trimming my nose hairs.
S: “I have never tried to enforce my views on anyone.”
W: Please recall your own words: “That's just cold-blooded. The man died and untimely and suffering death. The least we could do is show a little class and offer prayers of comfort to his family and a prayer for the soul of a man who defied the odds after dropping out of high school to become one of America's best known TV news anchors. No matter what you think of his politics, I see no purpose in sniping at someone that has just passed away. Frankly, it says more about the person making the comment than it does about the person that passed away.” Sounds to me like you are making a darn good try to enforce your views on me and many other posters.
S: “Taking issue with someone certainly is not an attempt to "enforce" my views.”
W: It is when you condemn and reprove by saying “That's just cold-blooded.” and then recommend actions like “The least we could do is show a little class and offer prayers of comfort to his family and a prayer for the soul of a man who defied the odds after dropping out of high school to become one of America's best known TV news anchors.” Again, I think you really need to pay more attention to what you say and spend less time moralizing to others.
S: “As for your reference to my ignorance... I find it interesting that you resort to insults instead of resorting to logic.”
W: Looking over the lapse in your memory over your own statements and sanctimony that drips from your posts, I really don’t consider anything I’ve posted to you to be anything close to the arrows from pious pulpit you lecture from, friend.
S: “That indicates that you have a real problem articulating your views. And that implies ignorance. “
W: I have zero problems articulating my views. The problem lies in reading and understanding them in context. To my thinking, that is the gist of our exchange.
S: “Anyway, I'm tired of this nonsense. You seem intent on proving just how brilliant you are and I couldn't care less whether you're a genius or a twit. So, I have no intention of engaging in this nonsense any further.”
W: Of course. There is always time to slap down those you consider morally deficient, but never a moment to engage in solid discourse or defend your words.
S: “For some reason you took issue with me making the point that I see no purpose in discussing Jennings' views and calling them treasonous on the day of his death. He had a family who are mourning his death. I see no point in adding to their pain.”
W: For some reason you took issue with me making the point that it is important to place the man in proper context as a treasonous tool of the left. Nothing said on this forum or thread will add one iota to his eternal status or his survivor’s pain. Don’t forget, you took it upon yourself to correct me – not the other way around.
S: “We can debate our disagreements with Peter Jennings' positions later. But the man just passed away.”
W: I doubt we’d be able to discuss Jennings later because you clearly do not understand the gravity of the man’s legacy now or the misguided emotion of eulogizing a treasonous puppet.
S: “So...it's been just a thrill trading barbs with you, but I think I better move on to something a little more important....like trimming my nose hairs.”
W: I think your limited range of vision will be an excellent aid in trimming your nose hairs.
