37. An example that was wrong.

"You are the one spewing the conspiracy theories."

If it was such a conspiracy, why did the Congress object to counting a state's electoral votes for the first time since 1876?

You have no answer for this.

"As for strawman, look up the definition, I don't think you know what it means."

I'll get right on that, after you look up words like "leaders" and "electing".

"Your personal attack was clear."

Then alert on this supposed "personal attack" and let a Jury decide. Or are you afraid they'll let my comments stand, because there were no personal attacks?

You just can't admit that your examples were incorrect, so now you're flailing around and trying every trick in the book to try to distract from that fact.
So they are not insane. Why do they keep electing leaders who are? Comrade Grumpy Mar 2012 #1

So the Congress objecting to counting Ohio's electoral votes in 2004 was a "crap conspiracy"? Alexander Mar 2012 #33
