That you assign to me what you did is a non sequitur at best.

Let me guess. You are taking a logic class in high school and are testing out some of the terms?

You boasted arrogantly of your supposed superior intellect compared to many FReepers.

Well, if I thought I had superior intellect before this thread, you and several other "Freepers", so to speak, have certainly done little to disprove that.

I expected you to demonstrate that superior intellect.

Your posts and those of a few others have done far more to demonstrate my superior intellect than anything I could have said or done. Thank you.

You brought others into yours and my discussion, not me. If you have a problem with other people it's between you and them. Leave me out of it.

In fact it was you who inserted yourself into a discussion between me and another poster. I had not directed any comments to you nor did I insinuate anything derogatory about you, until you made a complete fool of yourself.

So according to you. because I make no comment to them or don't castigate them I'm carrying their water? If that's what you meant, your argument is a non sequitur. Not even guilt by association, rather, guilt by non-participation.

You really should stop using terms you think make you look smart. They only do if they have meaning in context. And yes, you are carrying their water for them. Two of us traded insults and you somehow felt it was your place to challenge me alone. You looked for a totally meaningless mistake and decided to take me on, not for the purpose of the thread, but to simply for a food fight. Never mind the numerous errors I have pointed out that you have made. You remind me of Sharpton who was "shocked" at Imus' comments while ignoring all the racial comments of those of his racial background. Your motives, just like those of Sharpton are highly suspect.

I never claimed nor implied I was intellectually superior, but you did.

It's good you don't claim any intellectual superiority. You might find it difficult to substantiate.

BTW, regarding: "I think I know some who do" -- Since there was only one person -- Mark Twain -- the correct grammar is someone who does. Thank goodness I didn't go boasting about having intellectual superiority or I'd have egg on my face.

You see, the problem with that is that you were referring to other "freepers" who share your "values" here on this thread, not Mark Twain. Your Twain quote was not linked to your statement. Either way though, it was your error, not mine.

Frankly, I've not seen such a group of bottom feeders on any thread as I have here. Several so called Freepers here somehow think they have some special insight into the concept of freedom. They don't, and all the personal attacks they launch against those who disagree will not fortify their case, but merely point them out. I'm sure you understand.

You take care.

Wow. You still don't get it. You disproved it yourself. You are right about it taking little for FReepers to disprove your asserted superior intellect.

Your posts and those of a few others have done far more to demonstrate my superior intellect than anything I could have said or done. Thank you.

Your arrogance has grown as hollow as a dry well. You've been, actually your arguments have been thoroughly trounced yet you still declare yourself the victor. Reminds me of the bloody knight in a Monty Python movie with his arms and one leg cut off continuing his challenge to his opponent, and the opponent replies: "what are you going to do, bleed on me?!"

In fact it was you who inserted yourself into a discussion between me and another poster. I had not directed any comments to you nor did I insinuate anything derogatory about you, until you made a complete fool of yourself.

Yes I engaged you in discussion but not the person you were in a discussion with. I didn't engage or challenge what you were discussing with that other poster. I engaged/challenged you on what you were proclaiming about yourself -- that you proclaimed you had superior intellect compared to many Freepers. I didn't get between you and another poster I got in your face to challenge (and laugh at) your pompous arrogance. And basically have had you eating your own words. Like most of your arguments in your and my discussion your above argument has been refuted.

Two of us traded insults and you somehow felt it was your place to challenge me alone.

I challenged you to back up you claim of superior intellect. You proclaiming your superior intellect is not an insult directed at the other poster. ...It's an assertion you made about yourself. That is what I challenged. Of course, I have already explained this to you so either you chose to ignore it or you failed to comprehend. So much for superior intellect, eh?

You looked for a totally meaningless mistake and decided to take me on, not for the purpose of the thread, but to simply for a food fight.

You set yourself up as the supposed superior intellect compared to many Freepers. In your very next post you demonstrated that was false. That, I thought, was down right hilarious, so I challenged you on it.

Read it and weep...

This is just too good not to make fun of. Talk about irony!! 

MACVSOG68: Actually, we have someone who can read and write here, and can use a tad of logic. I don't assume simply because you can log into FR that you are in possession of any of those three abilities....to any measurable degree. 65

MACVSOG68: How did Keyes get into this discussion? 68

He wrote the article we're discussing.69

MACVSOG68, how does your foot taste? Shall I reload so you can shoot yourself in your other foot.

You were quick to shoot your other foot. Continuing on to other limbs with your subsequent posts. You're just like the bloody night.
