241. LOL, nice try... but I DO appreciate your candid statement

that you're fed up with people's doublespeak... that's a reasonable position to hold and I, for one, certainly would not describe someone who does that as a "good guy." So, I'll CONCEDE that point to you. You're absolutely right to feel that way... it would bug me too.

So, you were certainly within bounds to raise questions about any bad intent I might have had in using phraseology that you interpreted as "doublespeak" to denigrate Maxine Waters. You "win" that round.

BUT, when I laughed off my own mistake; acknowledged your point that my comment ( a "triple negative" ) could/should have been phrased better and, thus, could be misconstrued; but that it was NOT what I intended to say; and then proceeded to declare my sincere admiration for Maxine, THAT'S when you COULD have acknowledged that I had no bad intent.

The fact that, after this constant back and forth, you continue to stand on your technically correct grammatical analysis and STILL won't acknowledge that clearly says a lot about you. Is it REALLY that hard?!

To simply gloss over that by noting you never said I was a "bad guy" is so obviously disingenuous. To be honest though, I really don't care what you have to say anymore... almost said "I could care less." It's actually kind of AMUSING that for someone who is SO concerned about what words mean - again, RIGHTFULLY so - you CLEARLY know what I'm saying, and your refusal to acknowledge that is transparent.

So, carry on, and keep declaring your "grammatical victory" making you right to question my intentions, regardless of my explanations to the contrary.
