Sorry Charlie, my recollection is very good. And I owe you nothing for butting into this.

Unfortunately, flaglady47, this very thread contains proof positive that your recollection of an event which occurred only a few hours ago is quite poor. In post 2478, for example, you criticized Bush for failing to talk about "ambulance chasing lawyers that are lousing up insurance costs for everyone" during tonight's SOTU address. Then, in post 2504, You Dirty Rats quoted a line from the address in which Bush expressly spoke of the need to "protect good doctors from junk lawsuits by passing medical liability reform."

Your response? . . . crickets . . .

For this reason, I am sorely tempted to conclude that someone who can't even remember what was said a few hours ago is even more likely to be mistaken about what was said (and by whom) a few days, weeks, or months ago. So please excuse me (and Chena) for adhering to the ancient legal maxim "He who asserts must prove," with which you obviously disagree (at least when it comes to your assertions).

Meanwhile, please feel free to excoriate me (a total stranger to you until tonight) for having the audacity to suggest that you actually expend the energy required to support your claims about another FReeper's views (considered in proper context), particularly when those claims are based solely on what you say is your excellent memory. After all, it would by no means be the first time you alienated fellow FReepers on this thread tonight.

Well, I reached the end, so I'm going to bed. Night all, it's been fun.

And it probably won't be the last if I have to deal with the likes of you. Ah, but now I will leave, on second thoughts, as I am hungry, and hunger trumps pointlessly debating with those for whom the word "analysis" doesn't exist. Nitey nite, my kitchen beckons.
