...man, your all over the map!

When are you going to answer my question?

It's nice that you think I have fine plumage.

 

[Voidwar]

You mean this idiocy ? ?

Care to define "failure" in the context for which it was presented?

There can be no misunderstanding, as the statement is part of an analogy.

Failure like that. Returning a report that is innaccurate. Your question is not really worth answering, as what I meant was completely obvious in the original post.

Grasp at another straw, clown.

Don't mind if I do.

What do you have to offer that validates your conclusion her report was a "failure?" What do you base that on? Is it just your belief? Do you have any logical, reasonable premises that lead to that conclusion? Or are you just going to continue to A-void, instead of B-void?

You say I'm illiterate,

. . . and you prove me right. Allow me to demonstrate . . .

Billo quotes this passage, and focuses on the word snipe.
Notice in the construction of the sentence that "snipe", is a verb, with the agent being "you" (Billo), and the object being "my posts". So in this passage, snipe is a verb. Yet when Billo goes to try and nitpick the term, he once again trips over his own stupid. Poor Billo looks up the noun. :doh

If Billo was a bit smarter, he could, from the grammatical context, know that the word was being used as a verb, and then when looking up definitions, he might understand what the second portion is all about . . .

. . . and I continue to beat you like a drum.

Why do you believe that's the only thing that was going on? And why do you put down the word of an eyewitness, in leui of someone who gets their info off a monitor 8000 miles away?

 

[Voidwar]

And why do you put down the word of an eyewitness

:doh Read harder Billo. :doh

She is a Muslim, not an Iraqi.

Since not an Iraqi, NOT an eyewitness.

 

[Voidwar]

Why do you believe that's the only thing that was going on?

I never said it was the only thing going on.
It was going on,
thus the "Iraqi People" did not want peace,
thus the girl was wrong,
and this discussion is over.

You're going to have to find another role model.

This is too much peer pressure for me to deal with!
