If it's a typo fine.  Hell, I do that all the tyme.

But if it confuses your meaning and makes you look like you don't even know what you're talking about, as in this case, just admit it and move on.  Don't try to cover for it.  That just stretches out the confusion.

is it that you can't or won't stop?

It was pretty clear.. you either can't or won't stop insulting people.. this time, you implied Howie made up his explanation(huh, a running theme with you) and said he just didn't know what he was talking about... You spend your time whining for proof of when you've insulted or demeaned people but ignore it when it's highlighted to you (twice) ..

so it must be a 'won't'...

I will gladly explain why you are incorrect.  When I pointed out that Howey had confused the 14 billion tax break for GM with the oil companies, this was his response.

Trust me. I understand everything you're trying to say. Even what you're not saying. Like the fact that losses racked up by GM before its government-funded bankruptcy can be used to offset its future tax liabilities as dictated by the Troubled Asset Relief Program, thanks to George W. Bush.

So why you blamin' Obama?

Now, does this sound like an explanation of a typo to you?  It doesn't to me.  It sounds like someone is trying to double down on their error by ducking and dodging.

Of course, I would like to get back to the issues, instead of this side street you wanted to go down, so let me reset this:

Howey, first, what exactly did I blame Obama about?

and

Howey, could you source that TARP changed tax law to allow GM to maintain that 14 billion?

Damn that socialist negro president! Giving all that money to Chrysler! We're never going to get it back!

Oops.

Quote
Paying off debt is a dream shared by most Americans, however, most of them aren't staring down $7.5 billion that's owed to the United States and Canadian governments. Chrysler accountants currently see that on the balance sheet, and we imagine that figure looks rather daunting. Lucky for them, Chrysler is set to pay it back. All of it.
 
Chrysler is preparing to announce details of a $3.5 billion bond offering. Those funds, along with $1.3 billion in cash from Fiat and a $2.5 billion term loan, will be used to pay back the two government loans.

stop right here, because everything after this point is you explaining why you insulted him.... there is no 'why'.. do not insult people, do not demean people, do not condescend towards people.

is it really that hard for you to follow?

what you said..

But if it confuses your meaning and makes you look like you don't even know what you're talking about, as in this case, just admit it and move on.  Don't try to cover for it.  That just stretches out the confusion.

insulting,cynical and dickish.. and could be said another, less snobbish way as in..

Ok it was a typo.. Fine, it had just confused me because I wasn't sure what your meaning was. I'm still not clear, can you restate your position again?

instead, you double-down on with your insults, by throwing more of them.. and then getting all patronizing with me about how you'd really like to return to issue, after you're the one who got everyone off the issue in the 1st place by being insulting.


Now, does this sound like an explanation of a typo to you?  It doesn't to me.  It sounds like someone is trying to double down on their error by ducking and dodging.

Of course, I would like to get back to the issues, instead of this side street you wanted to go down, so let me reset this:

so I ask again, is it that you can't stop this or you won't even try to stop?

seriously,  if you want to be jaded, by all means.. be  jaded just stop being cynical..  you want to say someone is too grounded in their own ideology to see the other side of the coin, fine.. have at it. Just stop backhandedly calling people's intelligence and honesty into question.

you have turned decisively antisocial and I'm not the only one telling you this.. even your 'followers' on muche have mentioned it to you.. you, yourself have noticed this about you.. remember, you  when said that you were becoming much more of an ass every time you posted on muche, and if it was enough that even you'd noticed, you must be approaching 'wrongo-like' rudeness to everyone else?

try something different for a change..

I came about THIS close to banning him for a day or so yesterday and realized again I'm not like that.

Huh. Seeing as how this thread dates back to May 19th, a date which also coincides with the last appearance of lilMike on this forum, I've got to point out that "He who insults has little room to run off in a huff whilst continuing the same ol', same ol', elsewhere.

Perhaps the tizzy fit has less to do with insults and more to do with lilMike being persistently wrong in just about every discussion?

Anyhow, mike...you're welcome back anytime you want to visit.  Wink
