“Just going by what you said.”

1. No you are putting the worst possible interpretation on what I said.

2. I said I had been calling him weak since I saw the picture, not that viewing one picture was the totality of my information.

Just because he won’t trash an opponent doesn’t mean he won’t stand up for himself. Have you heard the guy speak and respond to stupid questions? Check out his convo with that Juno actress or any other time he gets “confronted” on the campaign trail. Sen. Cruz makes his opponents look like fools when he gives an answer.

OTOH, nearly all of Reagan’s cabinet members and well-known staffers have turned out to be RINOs.

Don’t bust my chops here. I asked you a question and when you answered, I took you literally at your word. I don’t play silly guessing games.

Say what you mean if you want to be understood.

I don’t have to check out anything - I follow Ted’s campaign just as closely as I do Trumps. Look, I diss Trump on occasion too - so, it isn’t anything personal. Read my tagline.

“I took you literally at your word.”

Nonsense. You insulted me, taking an unreasonably bad interpretation of what I said as your excuse.

“I don’t play silly guessing games.”

Really? You certainly play silly games. This one was described as follows by another poster here:

“I can explain (some alleged contradiction) quite easily. I see it here on FR all the time. Somebody latches onto a simple misinterpretation of a statement because it gives that person the perfect venue to strut and preen in defense of his own ecclesiastical/political/moral existence. Thus has Satan snuck in to the discussion all unnoticed. The saints—I believe it was a hated Jesuit as a matter of fact—have taught us that in a dispute, the disputing parties have a duty to attach the most innocent and least malicious motives and explanations to the other’s statements. It is part of the virtue of charity. It is what anyone would want from you, and it is plain common sense.

Now, there’s a recipe for elevating the level of discourse in the blink of an eye.”

He was right, of course, but there are just so many people and so little time...

OK, you just want to pick a fight. So far you have said nothing but provocative nonsense.

Bye.

“OK, you just want to pick a fight.”

I want to pick a fight?

*I* want to pick a fight?

You are the one who picked a fight with me. What, are you used to getting away with that kind of behavior because you are a female?

“Bye.”

I watch you waddle away, madam, with purest joy.
