Really, it sounds like you're putting words in my mouth. Anyway I'm done with you...
You made the accusation against Rush, not I.
I disagreed with it based on what happened in the conversation, and Rush's basic truthfulness, and you could only defend your position with how you felt about it.........no evidence to back it up at all.
It may seem picky to you (I don't know how young or culture saturated you are), but accusing Rush of 'over acting' while pretending he didn't know what you are claiming he did know, is the same as saying that he lied.
Sorry, but accuracy matters. Words mean things.
(It wouldn't be that hard to admit you were wrong, would it?)
