You are ducking and dodging, bobbing and weaving. You are rope-a-doping. You have lost credibility with me. I cannot help you with what ails you. Good luck to you.

“You are ducking and dodging, bobbing and weaving. You are rope-a-doping.”

That's not my style.

When I find I'm wrong I acknowledge the error and own it. For example, in post 323 I wrote: “My statement that Jefferson did not include the reference to “merciless Indian savages” in the draft DOI is wrong. Jefferson DID include it in the draft but a couple of paragraphs away from the paragraph starting, “He has waged cruel war against human nature itself . . .”

I did not initially see it in my search. I regret the error.”

It may be your fault-finding is with my wry sense of humor as when I replied (post 81)to a northern brethren with the quip: "My degree is in psycho-ceramics. That’s the study of cracked pots. I find your comments very interesting."

That was just a soft answer to a mean-spirited attack. I hope that our future discussions will be free of difficulty.
