Whatever, already told you I was joking to make a point.

Yes, and I was clarifying to make a much more important point.

I had a belly-full of that anti-Constitution bilge about “blacks being counted as 3/5ths of a person” that was an absolute lie during the recent ‘backlash’ over the election in 2010 and the reading of the Constitution in the House of Representatives.

As such I cannot in good conscience let stand any ‘not as if they are 3/5ths of a person’ without a thorough deconstruction of the argument, even if meant completely as a joke.

My apologies. My animosity is completely 100% against that argument, not you, or your joke.
