- ###Regarding Nathanson... of COURSE no other NARAL members are going to

- ##So, you were lying when you said "They have since admitted they were
- ##lying through their teeth?", weren't you? Did you think it would
- ##help you in the debate to simply make something up?
- #
- #WHAT? Since when did I state I was lying?
-
- When you admitted that you had used the word "they" to describe
- Bernard Nathanson. I thought that most people were aware that
- "they" is plural. I see you are not. I suggest some elementary
- English classes.
-
- #If Mr. Nathanson WAS a member
- #of NARAL, which he was, then any statements he makes about their actions
- #and motives are just as credible as their own statements. For anyone
- #in NARAL to admit that even a small portion of Mr. Nathanson's statements
- #were true would be tantamount to your admitting you were kidding all along,
- #and that you were really an active Operation Rescue member.
-
- No, if eight witnesses say one thing and the ninth says another,
- people don't usually assume that the ninth is just as credible
- as the other eight. (Particularly when the ninth has stated
- publicly that he has lied in the past.)
-
- Feel free to continue to whine. You've chosen this charlatan as
- your hero, you have to live with it.
-
- ##(The whistling sound you hear is your credibility flying out
- ##the window.)
- #
- #.... pot calling the kettle black? .....
-
- No, I have some credibility in this newsgroup. Unlike you, I've
- yet to lie here.
-
- ###Let us not forget that even sources don't mean much. Statistics can
- ###be manufactured to support almost anything.
- #
- ##Are you speaking from experience?
- #
- #*shrug* Perhaps.
-
- Why be ashamed? You're only following in Nathanson's footsteps.
-
- #We can see, however, from your extensive mendacity on
- #this net, that you pioneered the skewing of facts and statistics.
-
- Somehow I doubt that you'll be any more willing to provide any
- documentation for this claim than you have for any of your
- other claims.
-
- You certainly fit the pattern of the typical pro-forcer in this
- newsgroup - you lied blatantly, denied the lie while your original
- articles were still available, and then accused someone else of
- lying. Keep it up. Laughable liars are good entertainment.
