Is Alan Keyes Making Sense?

Did you ever find out about your rumor-mongering? I thought your analysis of my analysis was great - in fact, you should have done it to begin with - yours was more succinct!

[Howlin]

What rumor is Daughter spreading?

[Amelia]

I'm not sure; that's what I'm trying to find out. She was accused of rumor-mongering above, and asked what rumor it was she was spreading. So far as I know, she hasn't gotten an answer yet.

As far as I can tell, everything she's said has been either true or clearly labeled as speculation?

[Howlin]

I just didn't want to miss any juicy gossip.

[Amelia]

You may now graduate to the FR Secession threads, otherwise known as the "Second American Civil War." [SACW]

I've seen those threads. Do I have to?

[Registered]

Just wondering, are you two one in the same?

Of course it is.

[Keyes For President]

That's what I thought.

;-)

[Amelia]

Registered, are YOU humbletheFiend and IanSherwood? That would explain all the neat posters IanSherwood used to post....like the Desert Invitational, etc.

That's what I'd like to know.

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

The post that was pulled was extremely benign; you didn't even make the initial association. Whoever flagged the Admin on that one has incredibly thin skin and no sense of humor whatsoever.

Now there's an interesting theory. What happened to IanSherwood, anyway? Funny stuff!

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Did you ever find out about your rumor-mongering?

No, I didn't. I guess the accusation was meant to just hang out there. I wouldn't know what else to think at this point.

[LarryLied]

Perhaps someone was concerned others might not see the attempted humor and believe the Yates analogy. What is this about a Keyes financial thread?

[DaughterOfAnIwoJimaVet]

Well, I guess I said something in this post that seems to have hit a nerve. Am I wrong about something? (Do you know?) Why do you suppose I've been accused of spreading rumors? I can't seem to get an answer from those who have objected.

[LarryLied]

I recall posts in 2000 about Keyes' finances. But then all the fringe candidates and parties couldn't get their financial act together. Harry Browne and Pat Buchanan came in for the most criticism. From what I hear, the Libertarian party has virtually split over it.

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I just now saw the recent posts to this thread and I'm confused. What rumors? Is that Ian guy actually Registered? What's going on?

Maybe I should have read it all but I was hoping for a quick recap.

There are NO, I repeat NO, irregularities in the finances. So please don't waste your time rummaging about in the public filings.

Please! Enough is enough!

I've just about had it with all of you.

Good night!

[VRWC For Truth]

The fact that Alan Keyes is a pompous bore is no rumor.

[Southflanknorthpawsis]

I've just about had it with all of you.

Uh.....okay but I just got here and haven't a real good idea about what is "enough".

Have any links to places where we should not rummage?
