Kellie: I resent the implication that I alone derailed these
comments. I had a lot of help.
Sure. If everyone had simply ignored your reference to the lying
story about Clinton causing disruption at LAX in order to get a
haircut, you wouldn't have successfully derailed the thread: we
could have carried on discussing the ways in which Bush has abused
power.
Instead, several people pointed out to you, carefully and clearly,
that the story you cited was not true. It was the combination of
your initial citation of a lying story about Clinton with your
stubborn refusal to accept that the story you had heard was a lie,
that derailed the thread. Trying to blame the people who were
trying to give you the facts is not nice.
My main point in posting was that Bush isn't the only president
who has done stupid things to the public. And because Teresa
compared Bush's actions with those of Chirac and Clinton, I felt
the need to make that point.
But if this was your point, you derailed it yourself, by making a
reference to a Clinton incident that never happened the way you
described it.
