113. Why won't you answer one question?

Jun 2014

I've answered dozens, and shown you to be utterly ignorant of any details in this situation. You haven't answered one question. When you answer one, I'll answer one. So for the third time. How many was it if the 67% figure is incorrect. Now, that you've been faced with the proof from President Obama that it was not merely the facility in Arizona, what will you grasp at next?

How many? The least you could admit is that you don't know. That would show you had some willingness to admit truth. Instead you cling stubbornly to the asinine question which led you to accuse me of an Anti-Obama rant because I was aware of what President Obama had said on Friday.

How many? How Many? How many? By now, everyone reading this knows that your determination to pin this solely and sqarely on the GOP is at best shallow nonsense, and at worst delusional. So how long will you keep up your determination to be viewed in such a way?

How many? I've answered every argument you've put forth. How many? If I answer this one, what will be the next objection you raise? How many? You pretend to know the answers when you haven't a clue about the question. How many?
