Wow what an incredibly long 100% BS cop out.

There’s nothing wrong with me, I’m just trying to participate in logical discussions of news events. Which apparently from where you sit is an unreasonable demand. Apparently you just want to be able to say the sky is falling and have everyone nod their heads in grim agreement. Sorry bub out in the world of logic we defend our positions, we don’t whine about how the other guy is making unreasonable demands by not just accepting us as smarter.

Now we know the truth, you’re just another doom and gloomer and the very thought that someone might not take your word on everything without the slightest question is offensive. Sorry you can’t be bothered to do a simple little thing like actually give a logical reason for your statement, sorry you’re just an emotion driven guy that assumes everything is going to be horrible and considers little things like proof to be beneath you.

I’m not desperate for anything, I just want you to either bring some logic or admit you can’t. This post is a pretty good job of the later. Congratulations, you have announced top the world that logic is not a part of your position.

This is where each of us gets to express their thoughts on matters.  I expressed mine, and you have attempted to badger me into an arguement so that you can prove yours is the superior position.  Having already conceded that possibility a number of times, what would be the point of my participating in that effort.

I can no more tell you what will definately take place in the future, than you can tell me what will definatly take place in the future.  And once again, no matter how many times you seek to say it, no matter how many different ways you seek to say it, and no matter how many times you seek to insult me in the effort to prove it, rationality will never be a sure fire way to predict a future corporate board decision.  I gave you an example of a corporation that didn't use good reason.  It happens.

"Now we know the truth, you’re just another doom and gloomer and the very thought that someone might not take your word on everything without the slightest question is offensive."

I'm quite comfortable with the fact that some folks will disagree with me here.  I have said so a number of times.  That doesn't change my overall perception on this matter.

Bud, it is logical to assess that rationality is never solid proof of a future decision that is going to be made by a body that is not limited to yourself.
