(Yes, and before you go accusing me of putting words in your mouth so as to deflect the discussion once again away from the real issue, I acknowledge that this is a rhetorical device I am using.)

You really do display tremendous cowardice when it comes to debating. Perhaps you should run for public office ... you'd fit right in with most candidates of both major parties.

(And just to be clear, before you go whining to others about how you've been insulted, I characterized your debating style, not you.)
