And once again leave me out of it and whine about jpjoiner, the person who posted the video on youtube if you're not attributing the comparison to me.

Then you're just nitpicking again? Thanks for clarifying.

I know you're not stupid, so why do you keep pretending to be?

And once again, I didn't attribute the comparison to you. You know it, I know it, and anyone with half a brain reading this knows it. As I wrote earlier, keep making that claim. Say it enough times, and eventually -- truth be damned -- someone other than you will believe it.

Then you're just dodging the issue again. Thanks for clarifying.

Fine, and I'll say again, you should make comments like the following:

to someone else. You're not attributing it to me. Ok, I believe you. I thought you raised that point because it had something to do with the video I posted, but apparently it's just some random trivia. So you have a problem with some people comparing Obama to Hitler. That is #1, irrelevant to anything mentioned before, and #2 irrelevant to me. Again, take it to someone else, I don't care who.

But, as is typical, you dodge the main point I did make on this particular subtopic of the argument: why did YOU choose to put it in a political thread? I don't expect you to answer, or address the issues about the comparisons made by others that make it so disgusting.

Ok, so we're done with the comparison thing, and you'll take that up with someone else. I wish you luck in resolving that. I think that just leaves why I chose to put a humorous youtube video in a political thread. You've eliminated forum rule violations as your motivation for asking this, so I guess it's just a curiosity of yours.

Sure. We can do that. The issue we're now discussing is why TracyCoxx wanted to post a Hitler spoof video where it makes it look like Hitler is angry about discovering that Obama ate his dog Fluffy. Yes smc, I will do that for you. Would you prefer to split this thread into this new discussion or should we just continue along in here to discuss this issue?

Here's what I'm going to do for you, Tracy Coxx. I'm going to concede to you that you have successfully dodged discussing the core of any of the points I made. You win. Now you can boast about your Pyrrhic victory to your friends, or your mommy, or whomever. Why Pyrrhic? Because by continually denigrating discourse, posting provocative crap and then pretending there's nothing to it, and so on, you denigrate yourself.

As I wrote somewhere else on this site, you make me want to vomit. It's not your political positions. I respect the opinions that differ from mine, when they're serious. I respect people who have them, too, if they own up to them and discuss them honestly. But you only do that if you don't get challenged. Then you pull this crap, and you make me want to vomit.

[TracyCoxx]

I merely took your odd accusations and demands to their logical conclusions.

You're right in one sense - it is not a victory I would want to celebrate. Not because of the enormous cost of winning or the devastated state I now find myself in but because this petty argument you insisted on having could have ended up no other way. By becoming so indignant over trivial things like a headmaster demanding little Johnny share his joke with the rest of the class you put yourself in this position.

Might I suggest the addition of this for the site?

Of course, you can call things trivial as a means of ignoring their substance. It's what cowards do when they can't really answer in an argument. Yes, I called you a coward. Go complain to the site owner.

You're a master at ignoring the substance of the points and then trying to make it look as if you're being accused, or harassed, or whatever. I salute your "skill," which I assume must work in some parts of your life since you employ it with such aplomb here.

Whoops, I threw up on your shoes.

On the contrary I said I would go so far as split this thread or devote my time in this one to discuss your issue. In response you waved the white flag. I am still open to discuss it if you'd like. It can only get better lol.
