Agreed...but bayourant definitely fouled up and refused to back down when confronted with facts!

At 7:51pm bayourant started the thread.

At 7:54pm holdonnow made his first comment

It took a little while for bayourant(and a few others who were reading the thread) to actually understand that holdonnow was Mark Levin

At 8:04pm bayourant said that he might be mistaken about which person at WABC said it

At 8:13pm bayourant says he looked back at his posts and it was Mark Levin because he said in the LIVE thread while the show was being commented on that he posted that Mark Levin called the general a dirtbag and none of the people actually listening to the show at the time told him that wasn't what he said

At 8:17 bayourant says that he will go look for an archive of the show

At 8:23 Jim Robinson posts that bayourant has been banned

So bayourant had 6 minutes to try to find the archive, listen to it and realize that he had heard it wrong and come back and apologize. I don't think that bayourant was confronted with enough facts to counter what he believed that he had heard with his own ears before he was banned.

There was a lot of emotion, a lot of confusion and a lot of misunderstanding. I've stated before in this thread that after I heard the archive once I thought that Mark Levin had called the general a mudball. I had to listen to it twice, read the transcript and listen to it a third time before I understood exactly what he said. Mark Levin did not say he was tired of people throwing mudballs. He said he was tired of the mudballs and that made it really easy to misinterpret that he was calling the general a mudball.

Good points. Still, bayourant spent time he/she could have spent getting more info...instead, he/she spent it defending his/her posting, even after being told a few times who holdonnow is.

Oh well...que sera, sera.

NEXT!!
