You don't believe there is partisan politics huh? You live in a dream world DUDE!!!!!
what? Please show me where I said that there aren't partisan politics, please! I dare you, show me one place I have EVER said that.
You know why I am so confident, cause I NEVER said that
It's funny how often I have to point out to you that you are arguing against something that I never said in the first place.
Alright, just try to think, I know it's hard, but just try to turn off Fox News, cause they aren't going to have your answer for you.
What I said was that "Dude, come on!" doesn't prove that Ronnie Earle is a partisan hack who is using the law to override the political process, which is something that anyone with the slightest grasp on logic could tell you.
Alright, here's where I'm gonna stop being condecending for a moment. I understand where you're coming from, based on two events in my life when I was certain of something because I thought "Of course it's this person who did this!", but I ended up entirely wrong.
Back when I was fifteen this girl from my church who used to babysit me, who at the time was going to Stanford disappeared. She went out for a bike ride one night in some mountains or woods, and didn't come home. We all believed she'd been abducted, and I was certain that she'd been abducted, and I was outraged at whoever did this to her, I wanted his head on a post. We found out about a month later when they found her body that she killed herself. I was wrong.
And then something happened last Winter, you may have heard about this cause it made national news, the whole Judge Lefkow thing. I've known that family my whole life, especially since their oldest daughter was my age, so we were in all of the same church groups. In case you didn't hear about this, or just don't remember it, Judge Lefkow's husband Michael and her mother (I didn't know her) were found murdered execution style in their house. I assumed, as did most, that it was clearly Matthew Hale, the leader of the white supremist group the United Church of something. He was on trial for trying to arrange her murder, so thus it made perfect sense, and it infuriated me whenever someone suggested it could possibly be someone else. It was obviously him, I mean, who the hell else would do that other than some ignorant racist who had already tried to have her killed?! It wasn't him, it turned out to be some crazy guy from Wisconsin.
So I know where you're coming from. You believe that with what you've heard and seen it's obvious that Ronnie Earle is a partisan hack, and that there's no way that the man you respect and admire, Tom Delay, actually commited any crimes.
And you have a right to believe that, but don't waste my time trying to prove it, cause you're not going to be successful. Ronnie Earle has persecuted 12 democrats and 3 republicans, and someone else saying so on this forum does not prove that those 12 democrats were all republicans in disguise. The other thing is it's a very large attack on Ronnie Earle's character to say that he's a partisan hack who is incapable of doing his job, so I'm sorry, I'm not just going to give Tom Delay the benefit of the doubt against all of the evidence when he says that Ronnie Earle is a partisan hack.
I've learned to use logic. I can say now that I have a reason to hope Delay is found guilty, if only to show you that even if you personally are certain, unless you have all of the facts, you can still be wrong.
