JuanCarlos,
This response is my last. I’ve no inclination to argue with a stump, as I’m sure you have none either. I’ll give my response and the last word is yours.
Redneckrepairs said, “ Bush has done a lot of bad things , sometimes citeing the best of reasons in his term of office i agree. One thing he seems to have done tho is evident since we have not had a follow up attack in America since 9/11 . Under his leadership We have re established some kind of security for Americans at home”. I think it is quite clear that this poster is saying the president’s actions have minimized (or eliminated) the terrorists ability to harm America or kill Americans. Your rebuttal to that was, “There were over eight years between the two "major" attacks on the WTC. It has been less than six since the last. We didn't "re-establish" anything...terrorist attacks, particularly foreign terrorist attacks on US soil, were not particularly common prior to 9/11”. You are clearly implying that because eight years passed between the WTC attacks and only six years have passed since the last one, Redneckrepair’s comments are invalid.
I said it twice and I’ll say it a third time: you used a single correct fact, ignoring the entirety of the situation to attempt to make a point. I find that misleading. There have been more than a few additional attempts by al Qaeda to attack us subsequent to 9/11, a couple of which have even been discussed on this very web site. None of these attempts have been successful. Their only successes once we decided to play “cowboy’s and terrorists” has been against other nations or relatively minor attacks against American interests overseas. Starting in the 90’s there had not been a period of 6 years without a major attack against America until after 9/11/2001.
As I said at the beginning of this post, I’m through discussing this with you. The last word is yours, use it how you will.

Fine. You think that if what you said is taken in context of what the post you were referring to said, it becomes correct. I disagree, but rather than take my word for it, let’s see what was written, shall we?

What insults are we trading here? So far I’ve said you were misleading, though I specifically allowed for the possibility that it was unintentional. In return, every post you’ve directed at me has been insulting. So no, I’ve got no interest in taking anything to PM with you.
