ORIGINAL: puella I am not surprised that you would not want to do your own leg work so here ya go.. this one even has a video clip: http://thinkprogress.org/2006/06/06/inhofe-gay-marriage/ Have no fear, I have no false illusions as to any feminine allure you might be trying to ascribe to me (even if for negative use). I am just going to keep calling it like I see it, doll, so you can take that for what it's worth. Thank you for the link. However, it doesn't support your claim. First, your source is a biased source (a "progressive" website), and the video doesn't match the caption. In fact, the video is an interview with Inhofe about global warming, and contains nothing that is in the written material. *shrugs* Perhaps a simple error on the site's part. But your cite doesn't support your claim. I am particularly interested in his context, if he said such remarks. Context - like possible bias - is something you evaluate when you are trying to determine the accuracy of someone's claims. Another issue of which you should be aware: in a debate or discussion, when someone advances a claim of fact, the onus is on that person to support it, not on the person challenging it. This isn't something that I just dreamed up to make your life difficult. It is a method to ensure that people making claims have some basis to their claims. As for my "claims' of you using your feminity - well, you did it again in this post with your diminutive "doll" comment. It's the second time you've used such a term of endearment on me. Doesn't bother me, but, if I had used such terms on you, you would have been all up in arms about me (as a man) condescending to you. In other words, it's something a woman can get away with, but that a man can't. So ... yes, you are continuing to use the fact that you are a woman against me, and in support of yourself. Perhaps you don't recognize that. I do. Deal with it. FirmKY
