And notice how you reacted to the prospect of a serious implementation of the "criticize ideas, not people" expectation: "Get out of the fray. Let the rest of us duke it out in the uncivilized ways that we choose." Your prefer…

YOU invited me into this thread, reformed. YOU DID! I didn't go hunting for miscreant posts. I found your post because YOU intentionally put an ampersand in front of my user name so th…

FYI...
- I do not currently, have never, and don't ever expect to feel "beaten," defeated, owned, overwhelmed, or in any other way bested by you.

Again your post suggests that you get it! I DO criticize behavior, but I DON'T criticize people.
And remember, this ENTIRE exchange started in Brett Kavanaugh, Rachel Mitchell and Republican's "Dirty-Tricks" Report Comment by Bill_Coley October 2018

You all but make my case for me, reformed. You claim to have "demonstrated extensive knowledge on this case." That means you think you have extensive "knowledge" about the case, but CM finds your "
(Quote)CM critiqued your "knowledge" of a "situation and its unworkings." Criticism of your "knowledge" is NOT criticism of your "intellect" because "intellect" is,
(Quote)With all due respect, CM - and I hope you'll receive this in the spirit I intend it - I encourage you to "(move) forward" without the assistance of posts such as your most recent one.
While I certainly appreciate the ironic tim…
(Quote)I have a lot on my plate today, so I HAVE to move to other things, but I'll take time for a correction of your assertion of fact on the letter Dr Ford wrote. Contrary to your assertion that "the letter wasn't to Feinstein at all," in f…
(Quote)What's the subject of CM's critique, reformed? "Your knowledge of this situation and its underworkings." Your "knowledge" is a thing, an entity, something about you; it's not you.
The subject of ad hominem attacks are people, n…
(Quote)While you're at it, reformed, please also make a note that prominent among the outcomes generated by your decision to spend your post alleging that I don't value truth-telling was that you avoided/evaded/disregarded/failed even to ment…
(Quote)The subject of your post, reformed, was me. Your core claim was that I don't value truth-telling.
The subject of my post was the sentence that communicated your claim. My core claim was that your sentence was an example of beat…
(Quote)What's the core declaration of that sentence? What's its point? That I don't value truth-telling. The Clinton supporter clause serves only as "evidence" for your core declaration.
So what's the subject of your post's core decla…

(Quote)I value truth-telling highly. I expect truth-telling from Supreme Court nominees as much or more than I expect it from other government officials. I am greatly troubled when a Supreme Court nominee lies under oath. If he or she lies un…
(Quote)If he testified that he learned of the Ramirez allegations when they were published in the New Yorker, but ACTUALLY learned about them before the New Yorker story - perhaps WELL before the New Yorker story - will you c…
(Quote)The issue I raise here is perjury. If he knew about the Ramirez allegations BEFORE the New Yorker story, as the NBC News story clearly suggests is possible, then he lied under oath to the Committee. If he lied to the committee under oa…
(Quote)I STILL don't understand the hangup.
You've acknowledged there was a directive on Friday of last week.
The NY Times reports that a "new" directive was issued on Sunday.
Your ONLY objection to the conclusion that…
(Quote)I had been reading an article in Politico. Sorry for the incorrect reference.
I don't understand the hangup. You acknowledge that a directive was issued on Friday. The Times says a "new" directive was issued within the last 24-…
(Quote)The Politico article TO WHICH YOU LINKED says there was a directive issued on Friday of last week. The NY Times article says the White House issued a "new directive" within "the last 24 hours." In my view, those two reports mean the di…
(Quote)Blasey Ford testified before the Judiciary Committee on Thursday of last week, which means the directive - "ORIGINAL" or otherwise - came on Friday of last week, and NOT "22 hours ago."
In addition, as you know from reading the…
(Quote)I don't know what "original" means, but according to multiple White House sources, at first, the FBI was allowed to speak with four witnesses, a group that did NOT include Julie Swetnick (the third on-the-record accuser), Dr Blasey For…
(Quote)Given that the Times' story broke in the 2pm hour today, east coast time, the White House must have distributed the new directive either in the last quarter of the weekend (noon-midnight on Sunday) or in the first half of Monday.
…(Quote)There is NO corroboration from ANY source to-date, at least as far as I know, of ANY of his definitions. If his school had a "different definition" of those words, then his classmates should be saying so. From what I've read, his class…
For reformed, Wolfgang, and any other Kavanaugh supporters. Please address this question directly:
If the FBI investigation shows that Kavanaugh lied when to the Judiciary Committee he defined his yearbook's reference to "Devil's Triangle…

(Quote)This odd statement is a bit like the question, "When did you stop beating your wife?" in that it's hard to respond to. The basic response, however, is that she's not being used. She's told her story under oath to Congress, and will soo…
(Quote)I wonder: Have you EVER found a sexual assault survivor's story credible? Have you ever actually BELIEVED a sexual assault survivor's story?
