This is how they do it!!!!

[Drummond]

Oh geez. Yes, sez me since you've just proven my point.

Actually .. you've just proven mine.

When the going gets rough, you resort not to continued debate, but put-down gimmickry instead. Rather than take my comments on as they stood, instead you went for a 'for effect' redraft which evaded them.

[fj1200]

... continued debate...

I think I've identified the problem. You considered that bit of drivel that vomited from your keyboard as debate. If you have a point please make it if you have more obfuscation then it will be mocked derisively.

Tut tut.

Points are made. You evade them, with redrafts, choppings of text, and now, just with an insult, and with an apparent promise of more of the same.

Why is it that you can't debate without all of this ?

You make stupid inconsequential points.

Promise kept.

*please note that your post was unmolested whereas I "chopped" my own text and didn't get mad at myself for doing so.

I see you've taken your redrafting-desperation tactics to the level of ludicrous comedy ?

Having posted:-


.... you went on to treat us to your 'WAGE WAR ON US' redraft, where you left off every bit of detail in Tyr's list !!!!!

Thanks for the laugh, FJ -

When I see tactics like that I know my point was made.
And he had no real refutation to offer.
Living in denial of reality so as to be able to defend the indefensible is a complex too. Only in his case it certainly appears to be one that he enjoys even as he denies its reality..-Tyr

What do you want, a medal ??

So, you've substituted one gimmick for another. Anything rather than indulge in fair, reasoned debate, eh ?

This is just too tiresome. I've better things to do with my time. Let me just give you a piece of advice: if you want to debate issues, try doing so HONESTLY. That's to say, if you get into difficulties, don't dive for the nearest gimmick of preference, such as rewrites, crossings-out, choppings of text, gratuitous insults ... all of this nonsense ... as your 'get out' tactic.

Here's a thought for you. If you're being bested in a debate, why not ADMIT it ? You will very probably find that you earn some respect in doing that.

Try it sometime.

Or if you really can't bring yourself to go that far, why not just retire from the debate in question ?

Anyway, this is going nowhere, so I'll quit the thread for now. Give my suggestion some thought.

Seriously, everyone. After spending Easter Sunday with four of our grandchildren.

I am now convinced. We should all leave fj alone to his own devices. At least..until he is potty trained. Our 2nd youngest grandson decided he would finally sit down to fill the pot. Creating an FJ image he was very, very proud of.

So..lets give fj time to adapt.

If you had been paying attention you would know that I suggested you had a "persecution complex" or some such thing, as proof I showed you to believe war was being waged on you by 15? different groups??? I believe they call that point, set, match.

What do you want, a medal ??

For smoking you in another "debate"? Sure, but you just whimpering off into the distance would be medal enough. I've never seen anyone whine as much as you.

That you refuse to admit what those 15 groups stand for and do proves you can not be a Conservative IMHO.. EVEN WERE YOU JUST A WEAK CONSERVATIVE YOU'D ADMIT MOST OF IT WAS CORRECT..
Yet you deny any of it!!! That to me leads to only one rational conclusion..
And while you deny reality you accuse me of some mental disorder.. That truly takes the cake amigo.. It truly does.. --Tyr

I'm not going to waste energy on your list when my point was your persecution complex.

fj. People like you who demonstrate dementia so vividly. Need to be left alone to your own, miserable devices. YOUR persecution complex is SHOWING.
