And as to whining about my restating other people's arguments, Ty's been doing that to me forever. If you look back through the past months, you'll see him repeatedly trying to tell me what I believe and accusing me of hiding what I actually think.

Does that make him dishonest? Hell no. He's probing. He's even gotten me to think a few times about what I am actually thinking.

It's profoundly strange to take issue with someone for pragmatically assessing politicians who lie effectively. If you can't separate recognition of a skill from the endorsement of its practice, your brain isn't working. George Goebbels and Josef Stalin were brilliant liars. Geniuses. If I say that, have I said that I support the idea of lying? No. I've said these guys are very good at doing something bad.
I was just kissing up to Flower. I’ve read none of this nonsense, would not be able to comment substantively.
