You made a reading error, not following the argument, and so stated something not factually true. Which you admit here, after tossing in a meaningless, feelgood claim you were correct about CNN :
My response:
Yeah, I missed it in the myriad of other pointless crap. I admitted this, deal with it.
Quote:The original claim was this, as restated in #55 above: In short, your points were not simply to establish that "someone was lying"--which no one disputed or was interested in disputing--but to establish a likelihood of who was lying. This appears to be what you re calling a "lie."
Incorrect. I made the point that CNN would have been automatically believed in the past, now not so much. This basic point continues to elude you.
Quote:"Points" refers to all the chatter about massacre survivors and CNN credibility which cannot be explained if all you meant to do was claim "someone was lying."
Uh, yeah.
Quote:Same argument, mutatis mutandis, applies to the accusation you accuse Dino of. You throw out an either x/or y and accuse someone of calling one side a liar. Claim you are not taking sides yourself.
If you claim I am taking sides then, by definition you admit GM is doing the same. You can't have it both ways.
Quote:So you wade into two different threads dealing with two different topics accusing two different posters of accusing others of lying. When your method is challenged, your challenger is a "liar" too.
The only liar I accused of lying is you. As you are clearly a liar I am very comfortable with the label I have applied to yo.
