I believe I did, Mystic. I think you misinterpret my take on what you said.
As I see it, that's what message boards do - express the opinions of the "court of public opinion" (of which I am a member, as are you). Making an allegation on a message board is quite different from publishing the same thing in the media. For example, I can say here that I'm convinced Bush pulled strings to get out of serving in the National Guard. CBS, The NY Times, etc. dare not say that until they have ironclad proof. That's never been disputable in my mind.
You have disagreed with me on most things and posted your disagreements without complete proof of veracity, and that's okay. That's what we're all here for. But you can bet that whoever might be looking into this "wired" allegation is trying to be darn sure they have the goods before they even breathe a breath of it to the public.

So in essence..you argue about Constitutional things but you dont practice them yourself.
Sad.
Of course thats just my opinion....I could be wrong. (Dennis Miller)

Boy, that's funny. The way you put it doesn't sound to me like I said what I thought I said, but just not to argue, let's have it your way.

Constitutional may have been a bad choice of wording...I can see how that would confuse a person. My mind was on something else when I posted...sorry.
What I should have said was that you dont like it when people post rumors about Kerry, and you flip out over it by screaming No proof! Prove it!
Yet...you are doing the same thing you hate that others do...
Of course thats just my opinion....I could be wrong. (Dennis Miller)

Postscript to the Debate: Oh, whatever was there for the first debate has been moved to a more secure location. But the coverup is not persuasive: The New York Times reports (Oct 9) that the White House first said that the pictures of the bulge might have been "doctored." When that didn't fly, campaign communications director Nicolle Devinish told the Times that the bulge was "most likely a rumpling...or a wrinkle in the fabric." White House and campaign officials also told the newspaper that Bush was not wearing a bulletproof jacket in the first debate, that there was nothing under his jacket, and that he wore no receiver.
