Calling Jimmy out

[Yurt]

we can only assume a fairly simple idea is over your head.

You are really loosing it aren't you? How many times does it have to be explained to you? Let me try and break this down very simple:

This thread was an invitation to the members of this board (identifiable class) to engage in a debate with the debate having certain parameters.

This thread is to be free from adhoms, free from partisan pissing matches and focused on debate about the Iraq war as defined by Jimmy's quoted post above.

You, however, broke your first rule in the sentence before this by insulting the class you wish to debate, e.g., members of this board.

Many Rightwingbots on this board have made a lotta noise about debate tho they offer very little of it.

Your supposition that your statement was general, e.g., not to an identifiable class is wrong, because you made the statement "specifically" not "generally" to the members of this board.

Thus, your broke your own rules and why you had to be called out on it before any rational debate could begin on Iraq. If you can't even keep your own rules, then the debate is without the parameters and thus all is open and fair game.

I want to debate you idiots on this board, but I don't want any name calling in this debate.

Not using it as a slur, trying to prove a point to cheesedick.

You guys are still going at this? Ugh.

I smell Loose's blood in the water, thats why.

Uh.. Bad time to point out he's not here, and hasn't been here in about 5hrs given his last post?

Talk to him via PM once.. He *can* sound kinda reasonable.. Dunno if he IS reasonable, but he can SOUND reasonable.

I understand that. But it is still something *I* find offensive, which is why I asked for the favor.

Oh and you didn't answer the nigger vs niggers question, nice dodge, or would you be willing to go downtown and try that out?

I did answer it, insults are not the same thing as adhoms.

There never was a question in the thread about whether the the phrase rightwingbots was an insult.

It wasn't directed at anyone in particular and therefore it wasn't used as an ad hom.

And you still have less credibility than me.

Mostly false. Jimmy challenged me to a debate, I accepted, he said open a thread, I did.

You are welcome to debate the topic Jimmy picked, but this useless bickering is getting kinda tedious.

Your supposition that your statement was general, e.g., not to an identifiable class is wrong, because you made the statement "specifically" not "generally" to the members of this board.

No it was made generally as in it named nobody in particular it was characterizing.

That isn't a complex point but it seems too complex for many to grasp.

You wanna debate Iraq, do it. If you just wanna bicker, you are reinforcing my original point that a lottsa noise is made but nobody steps up.

No problem Cocky as it looks like an honest answer is something I won't get from Loose and there is ONLY one honest answer.

Much appreciated, OCA.
