That was not what I meant. (See how easy it is to be misunderstood and to communicate poorly.) I simply meant that you often do not respond to your readers when they reply to the issue you raised (e.g., ATV's)w/o first besieging them w/ a counterexample they must answer first...like your children playing field hockey and an imagined govt prohibition against it. Now how is that for fair play?Delaware Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13619357338844485803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-32845621178142086842009-10-24T20:18:14.201-04:002009-10-24T20:18:14.201-04:00Lots of people in American don't like the cove...<i>Lots of people in American don't like the coverage done by Al Jazeera</i><br /><br />I doubt that "lots of people" in American even have the background knowledge necessary to have an opinion on the coverage done by Jazeera.Mikonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7893272060787897238.post-4708187237135785382009-10-24T19:37:32.194-04:002009-10-24T19:37:32.194-04:00I have to admit that this is the first time I have...I have to admit that this is the first time I have ever seen the term "counter-example monger" used in a sentence.<br /><br />Good way to ignore the fact that you made up my supposed constitutional objection to the Obama administration's tactic.<br /><br />And as for <i>you won't even allow your readers to respond to your post</i> in the ROV thing, exactly where did I prevent you or anyone else from responding as you wished?<br /><br />In fact, Dana, cite a single instance in the two years of this blog in which I have ever deleted a comment that was not spam.<br /><br />Quit making stuff up.

LOL.<br /><br />As for the my so-called method of reductio ad absurdum--well, you know what they say about people who live in glass houses. You won't even allow your readers to respond to your post about the possibility of govt regulation of children using all terrain vehicles until they first answer why you shouldn't be allowed to let your children play field hockey w/o govt interference (even though that is not at issue). You are a counterexample monger. So if you don't like it coming from me--oh, well, you have it coming.Delaware Watchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13619357338844485803noreply@blogger.com
