“...answer an argument by attributing bad motives to those who disagree with them.”
Isn’t that what you’re so angrily doing? I neither respect nor trust Sarah Palin as much as you do, and dare to express that, and you type paragraph after paragraph telling me things like “A reasonable person would know that the proper response is to give honest consideration to the position I offered.” Hafta tell ya, again, that sounds like a gauntlet a Slammie Fundie might throw down. Give up. I don’t love Sarah. I’ll probably never love Sarah. You can’t lecture me into loving Sarah. You can’t bluster and accuse me into loving Sarah. Allow me to express what I feel to be reasonable reasons for my lack of Sarah-love, and leave it at that. Don’t answer my arguments and opinions by attributing bad motives to me simply because I disagree with you. (Vulgar invective redacted) it.
“Isn’t that what you’re so angrily doing? (answer an argument by attributing bad motives)”
Absolutely not, nor am I angry. What do you hope to gain by continuing to repeat falsehoods?
You see, I have impugned your motives in addition to answering you on the merits, not instead of answering on the merits.
“telling me things like ‘A reasonable person would know that the proper response is to give honest consideration to the position I offered.” Hafta tell ya, again, that sounds like a gauntlet a Slammie Fundie might throw down.”
1. I have no idea what a “slammie fundie” might be. Is that a term in common usage over at DU or some other leftist site?
2. Telling you things? I never imagined that I would be able to get through to you. I do these things for lurkers, for the purpose of allowing people who attempt to deceive to show their true colors. And boy, you really came through there.
Signing off, now.
