Re: [MLUG - DISCUSSION] Evil GOP Bastards (dot com)

["Christian M. Cepel" <EMAIL:PROTECTED>]

First email: 

Are they implying that Rove actually penned or said this, or is this propaganda that one of them made up in the guise of 'If I was the evil Rove, I'd say this'?   If the latter, I'm really surprised that you would cite such rhetoric in a positive light.

Second email reiterating the same question regarding honest rhetoric:

I was discussing your apparent zeal to accept a fiction (if it is) and even cite it as probable fiction but then go on to address it like it was words from his lips as though even if he didn't say it, it's close enough to what you think he has said on other things as to make no nevermind and we'll just discuss it like he really did say it.  (I mean afterall... he had to be _thinking_ it even if he didn't _say_ it, right?)

Though the question wasn't explicit, it was pretty much obvious that I was asking why you indulge in such dishonest rhetoric.

Maybe you should clarify your meaning.  I answered your question, then I 
told you that I had answered your question, then you write that I 
"continue to avoid the question."  What question are you referring to?

Mike.  When did I even imply that I know nothing about him?

        

It was this part:


      

I'm sorry... what?  Sounds like classic Rove?  Are you suggesting 
that Rove has put forth plans like this, similar, either to this or 
somehow tactically similar regarding a dissimilar subject matter?

            

Maybe you knew what he had done and were asking if I knew, but it looked 
to me more like you were expressing ignorance about his methods and 
pretending that he wasn't really like that.

I answered your questions by telling you a few things that you can now 
claim to have known all along.

Mike
