idrankwhat 0 #278 February 21, 2007 Quote Did you really think a US Representative getting around $3,000,000.00 per year in taxpayer funded travel was irrelevant? No, I do think it's relevant. But I also think it doesn't even get off the baseline when you graph it next to the Billions in other waste. For one, I think $1.71 Billion per day in interest on the debt is more significant. edited to add: Or, the ~$70 million per day in Iraq. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course that has nothing to do with your bullshit claim that I "concealed" the source. It's funny. This thread went on for about five days and 220 posts before anyone even brought up the accuracy of the thread title. Hmm. Maybe it had to do with no one taking it at face value. You keep harping on this one and I'll keep exposing your bullshit claims. Speaking of fabrication, I'm still waiting to hear about how old your were in 1947, that you would "remember it well". What do you remember from age two? Yeah - I call BULLSHIT!!! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Oh get over yourself, Francis. What you seem so wrapped up in, is basically a single post of mine. I never stood by the validity of the title. The first time it's accuracy was questioned, I was pretty straightforward about it being made up. I think most people got the hyperbole right off the bat. Seemed like a no-brainer. But that's just me. Go read some of the newer thread titles. Has the Brady Campaign actually started "a shitstorm"? Is it really true that if you capture a rapist, you'll get extradicted? Do you know the meaning of hyperbole? On the other hand, it's SOP for you to skew the facts to present your own little reality. And when you get called, you resort to "diversionary" tactics. Do you really think that if there was solid evidence of Colin Powell attempting to coverup the My Lai massacre, it would have gone unaddressed during his various confirmations? The funny thing is frequently it's just a matter of clarification. But instead of doing that, you steadfastly hold your ground, as if your determination will change the fact that what you said was wrong. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No, but they are also not put in quotation marks. It is pretty clear that you tried to attribute a direct quote to Pelosi in the way you wrote your thread title. A quote you made up out of thin air. Do you not see the difference between what you wrote and: Pelosi wants her own jet? When you are dishonest with attributing quotes, it makes everything you write pretty suspect, specially when you couple that with the fact that you have nothing filled out in your profile. One might even think you are nothing more than a troll. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
