John,

Let me explain it in yet different terms...

What made me start this thread in the first place was my frustration in debating a point with one other Mudcatter, who deabted until he or she also got frustrated bnecause I had made points that they could not or would not respond to so instead of responding to my repeated questions/challenges, he or she instead posted a amonomously written "War 'n Peace" length cta'n'paste written obviously by some right-wing think tank fianced by millions of dollars by other right winged people...

This would be kinda like being Mohammed Ali going into the 15th round against Joe Frazier in "the Trilla and Manilla" only to find that Joe had turned the dirty work over to a fresh fighter with fresh legs...

There is no longer any chance that I can prevail... Hey, I've probed, and I've worked hard and the other Mayudcatter, when the going got tough, merely took the coward's way out with an endless Cut'n Post of endless and mostly meaningless satistics...

I thought this was "discussion" forum... I have never send in a 2nd or a serrogate... Hey, win, loose or draw, what you see is what you get... I fight my own battles, crappy typin' an' all and I don't appreciate anyone who ahs taken shots at me to send someone else in in the 15th round...

That, as far as I am concerned, is cowardly.... And chickensh*t... An' other foul stuff

As far as I'm concerned, I like to see Joe Offer start erasin' any cut a' post that doesn't have authorship...

They are all chickesh*t irregardless of their slant...

No one is held accountable for sources...

Hey, I could get me a blog and say that:

67% of Bushite's are closet homosexuals.

39% of Buishites beat theior spouses...

92% of Bushites cheat on ther taxes...

etc, etc... Now, if I were to go on for about 4 pages of this stuff and but it on a blog and in some other site where some progressive was in the corner and hee decided to just post this 4 page anonomously written crap, hey, the Bushite would be reral staemed...

That's what I'm tryin' to point out here...

That's waht I was tryin' to point out orginally...

Maybe I should have gone thru these examples fir folks to see just how stupid the "cut 'n paste" defense is but I thought it was apparent...
