I am apologizing to you, and it is genuine, for the nasty things I said to you. It's real. I'm sorry.
But please don't repeat lies like you have done here - that I worship President Bush - he is my brother in Christ. That I moved in some sort of group with Howlin, or that I left here because of her (absolutely, factually untrue). That I am stupid. Whatever else.
I understand that because you think I'm dumb, you think you can say whatever you like and not take responsibility for it, but I can't do that with you. I don't believe in situation ethics that excuse my bad behavior by blaming it on you. I'm taking full responsibility for my fault in this dopey exchange between us.
I know for a fact that you stated deliberately false information here about me, and you admitted to doing it for fun. You may say that I'm whining (that's the standard deflection of your culpability, isn't it?)- and perhaps I am, but I don't like being lied about, and it hasn't happened since I left here two years ago.
Now if we could start over, I would like to see if you are capable of a civil discussion with someone like me, who respects the integrity, courage, and character of George W. Bush. If we could go back and I would re-word my initial response to your undocumented insult of President Bush and we could discuss the issue and avoid the personal attacks, would you do it?
Are you willing to have an adult discussion with me? I am with you.
“Pelham. The things you said were not just insults. They were lies.”
Name one.
“But please don’t repeat lies like you have done here - that I worship President Bush - he is my brother in Christ.”
That’s priceless. You, who base your screen name on Dubya, pretending that you don’t hero worship Bush. You just get better with every post.
“That I moved in some sort of group with Howlin, or that I left here because of her (absolutely, factually untrue)”
Right. You didn’t leave FR for WideAwakes. It is someone else who uses your name over there. Same for Howlin and the rest of the mob with their old FR handles.
“That I am stupid. Whatever else.”
Quod erat demonstrandum.
“I know for a fact that you stated deliberately false information here about me, and you admitted to doing it for fun.”
There were no falsehoods, and you’re not that much fun. Maybe equal to a game of whack-a-mole, but that’s about it. You have a fixation on yourself that is a bit tiresome. You popped out of the woodwork when I posted that far from being at war, Bush and Obama share one great love, and that’s amnesty for illegal aliens. Obama can’t get to the left of Bush on that one because there is no room to Bush’s left. I doubt that La Raza or MALDEF or the Aztlan thugs are to Bush’s left. Let’s see you defend Bush’s border treachery if you can put off thinking about yourself for ten seconds.
