Chuckd, you are wasting your time. Pearls before swine.

Do you deliberately spin my words? If so, that is deceitful. I said that I don't care if YOU don't like my poor spelling, meaning I don't give a hoot what you like or dislike.

If you don't give a "hoot" what I like or dislike, then why do you respond every time I make a post?

I don't follow your logic. Two very seperate things there, chuck; my not caring if you like my spelling or not has no bearing or connection to whether I reply to you or not.

Explain, please.

Sigh.....I rest my case.

Again...I don't see your logic. What has my indifference to your disliking my spelling got to do with anything else at all, including whether I reply to other points you make?

It's a very pathetic response, ("Sigh.....I rest my case."), and one that seems to try to imply a greater knowledge of matters, but is in fact blustering bluff.....there is no logic or connection.

It is a lot better reply than typing "ditto" over and over again.

Palin fires up Nevada Tea Party

Thousands of supporters of the US conservative Tea Party movement have gathered in Nevada for a rally led by Republican politician Sarah Palin.

She urged the crowd to "fire" Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and other Democrats who backed healthcare reform in November's mid-term elections.

About 7,000 people assembled outside the tiny former mining settlement of Searchlight, Mr Reid's hometown.

They waved American flags and signs saying "Don't Tread on Me".

A nationwide bus tour intended to drum up support for the Republicans is due to follow.

MARDELL'S AMERICA

“ The second Palin-McCain rally didn't go quite as smoothly as the first ”

Mark Mardell BBC North America editor

The US House of Representatives narrowly passed the landmark healthcare reform bill earlier this week, with no Republican backing, after hours of fierce argument and debate.

The act, at the heart of President Barack Obama's political agenda, extends coverage to 32 million more Americans, and marks the biggest change to the US healthcare system in decades.

Republicans say the measures are unaffordable and represent a government takeover of the health industry.

Vulnerable seat

Mrs Palin, a former vice-presidential candidate and ex-governor of Alaska, came to Nevada a day after leading a rally in Arizona in support of her 2008 presidential running mate, John McCain, who is facing a stiff challenge from a conservative Republican in his bid for a fifth term in the Senate.

“ This election will be decided by Nevadans, not people from other states who parachuted in for one day to have a tea party ”

Senator Harry Reid

Standing on a wind-whipped makeshift stage outside the desert town of 1,000, she told the cheering crowd that Senator Reid was "gambling away" Americans' future.

"Someone needs to tell him, this is not a crapshoot [a gambling game played with dice]," she said.

The big-government, big-debt spending spree of Mr Reid, Mr Obama and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi was over, she said, adding: "You're fired!"

A string of opinion polls have suggested that Mr Reid is vulnerable in politically moderate Nevada after pushing Mr Obama's agenda in Congress, the Associated Press news agency reports.

His standing has also been hurt by Nevada's high unemployment and other economic woes.

In a statement released on Saturday, Mr Reid took a sarcastic tone: "I'm happy so many people came to see my hometown of Searchlight and spend their out-of-state money, especially in these tough economic times."

He added: "This election will be decided by Nevadans, not people from other states who parachuted in for one day to have a tea party."

The bus tour will take in 42 cities and is due to end in Washington on 15 April, the deadline for filing federal tax returns.

The Tea Party movement takes its name from the Boston Tea Party of 1773, when colonists dumped tea off English ships to protest what they considered unfair taxation by the British.

It is a lot better reply than typing "ditto" over and over again.

Another useless post to add to both our post counts.

Chuckd, you are wasting your time. Pearls before swine.

Add another one!

Pointing out the god's honest truth is never "useless".

So when are you going to start?

Mind you...pointing out to chuck that he's wasting his time was actually good advice for once. But probably not for the reason YOU think

Yep, he's wasting his time. As I said, Pearls before swine.

Palin fires up Nevada Tea Party

Man...........Like I said from the start of this thread.....

Tea Party has been so hijacked........

Why cant Palin et al just start a little joe 6 pack party or what ever

Yep, he's wasting his time. As I said, Pearls before swine.

Add another one.

If chuck is going to accuse me of just posting for the sake of post count, (a silly proposition in itself), then surely the accusation must extend to UG as well.

So...keep on posting your inane posts, UG....I'll keep responding (if I can be bothered).

You are a liar, Mr. Harcourt.

Where did I ever accuse you of "just posting for the sake of post count"?

You are a liar and a senile old fool.

You had better point out the specific lie or make a retraction.

You introduced the notion of post counts in post 1460 of the Afghanistan thread. The notion is on the table. So I said ""IF" chuck is going to ......". No accusation of you accusing me, no lie.

Once again, you fail to be able to follow thought processes through as posts in one thread can allude to ideas posted in another thread.

Here is my original post:

"An interesting observation, however. He's been a member since 23 June 2009 and has made 2684 posts, an average of 9.62 per day, most of them as supercilious as the one he just made."

Here is your claim:

In the first place, my post is not an accusation of anything, it is an observation and it states exactly that. The information is readily available by looking at your public profile and is a matter of public record.

Additionally I never criticized you for an excessive post count, I simply pointed out a fact about your post count that is in the public domain. If I accused you of anything, it would be one of making mostly supercilious posts. Now that accusation I will stand behind.

Your words claim I accused you of "just posting for the sake of post count." I never made any such accusation and I defy you to prove otherwise.

Your weak attempts to insult me by calling me senile, old man and other such niceties are really rather silly. You really should grow up a little.

Spin your words all you wish, you have lied and you are a liar.

I comcur and not even a good one.

I proved you to be a liar before, and you are showing signs of senility, and you are old..... spin my words all you wish.

I have had enough wasting time on all your efforts to discredit me.

I comcur and not even a good one.

Another liar trying to brand me.

I have also had enough of you.

I won't put you on my ignore list chuck because, when you are not trying to put me down, you write some interesting things sometimes. UG on the other hand is just an immature nutter....so he is ignored now.

Happy days! If you are telling the truth, it just might be the very first time.

Am I supposed to be pleased? Is not being ignored by a liar a cause for celebration?

Up to you, as they say.

This shouting match is defintely out of the box, but now closed to prevent any bloodshed. I strongly suggest you ignore each other or take your fued eslewhere.
