That equals "famously thin-skinned senator?" Of course, you've read the whole article and have followed all the other dubious hyper-links that are nothing more than non-sequitors so I probably don't need to point any more of them out. Or do I? The National Review online wouldn't resort to some dishonesty would it?

Originally Posted By DouglasDubh <He has said it, or something extremely similar, many many times.> No, I haven't. <And he knows it.> No, I don't. <He's simply using a debating technique as always, and in the process very rudely calling you a liar.> Of course, it's my fault for calling attention to the denigration and distortion of liberals posters. They should be free to do it, and conservatives should just meekly agree with whatever they say. Of course. And conservatives post on WE all the time, and the liberals are always respectful. How many lies are you willing to tell yourselves?
Originally Posted By DouglasDubh <I'll go find a half-baked liberal op-ed piece for you to skewer and we'll call it even?> If I skewer a liberal op-ed, it will be by using facts and logic, so no, we won't be even.

You are not the arbiter of what is a "lie" and what isn't, as others have pointed out.> You claimed I said something I didn't. You repeated the claim multiple times after I told you it wasn't true. You just claimed, "I always quote you verbatim". So live up to your words. Post a link to where I said what you claim I said, or admit you lie.*** DAR said this, Douglas. At least keep track of which people you are insulting and what you're accusing each of the of. Dummy.
