jeffersondem: "Integrate that into your fictive storyline."

You could easily tell us the truth, or even invent your own story line, so your refusal to do so suggests truth would not strengthen your arguments.
Consider, most Lost Causers are happy to tell us of the suffering their ancestors endured.
Suffering makes it personal, passionate & legitimate for them, regardless of what historical facts, logic & legalese they believe.

But jeffersondem's only real passion seems to be against our Founders for their, ahem, "unpleasantness" of 1776.

Duly noted.

IDC where demojeff hails from or what rock he crawled out from under. His/her “arguments” are specious, inane, or utterly absurd. They serve not to clarify or enlighten but to muddy the waters. Not worth anyone’s time.

“You could easily tell us the truth, or even invent your own story line, so your refusal to do so suggests truth would not strengthen your arguments.”

You have said - just to cite an example - about the word “chivvied”: “Who uses words like that? NOT AMERICANS, EVER.” (Emphasis added)

And yet everyone on this board has seen the great American hero figure John Wayne use the word on the big screen. And tens of millions of Americans have witnessed its use by the iconic American.

You have been given repeated opportunities to extricate yourself gracefully, but you continue to spread an ill-advised story that is the opposite of the truth. Opposite of the truth.

That is an interesting comment. May we see your data on that?
