No. I made fun of you to make a point about taking everything you read at face value.

But fuck it anyway....lets rehash it,Treasure said 95%....and than gave a laundry list of Departments she would simply dismantle( go back and check...off the top of my head most of the Treasury Dept including IRS and ATF...and while she was at it Homeland Security was being wiped out .Education,HUD and the Labor dept were scheduled to be done away with too).In my opinion what she suggested and you applauded constituted an evisceration of the Federal Government.....inconsistent with the health and the security of the Republic.
If you disagree with my interpretation of her post,fine..but for the love of god stop banging this silly point home!

I haven't been seeking one. The only thing I've been seeking (aside from a little mental exercise via intellectual brawling) is an acknowledgment that sometimes seemingly extreme positions may not be literal but merely hyperbole meant to express a more generalized sentiment and position about an issue (e.g. being of the belief that a smaller federal government would be a good thing).

I’m getting dizzy. A sure sign that we are going in circles. Time to get off the merry-go-round. I’ve said my piece and I stand by it. You can have the last word if you really want it. I’m done.

Unless, of course I change my mind.

All true Marc...although when you actually present a blueprint to achieve the supposedly hyperbolic statement.......you leave hyperbole and leave your statement open to dissection.
Not only aren't you getting an apology,now no Christmas card either!

Well your reply didnt let me down. Any chance of some decent links backing your claim ? 



After you post some backing yours.


I gave a valid link which you decided to dismiss, yet again you fail to produce anything other than your own assertion and no evidence.
