This little pinhead just loves to ignore the subject of any thread and get into some stupid argument over semantics. I've been arguing with him for days because like many people I used the term 'default on the debt' in relation to the Republican's threats not to raise the debt ceiling.He always insists he's right about everything and constantly suggests that other members 'educate' themselves on the issue at hand.Check out his siggy.As any idiot can see, I didn't say we never 'shut down the government' before.What I clearly said was, 'we have never NOT raised the debt ceiling'.The goverment shutdowns in the 90's had absolutely nothing to do with the debt ceiling.They were budget disputes between President Clinton and Congress.This is a whole different animal.Hoist by his own petard.If you're going to go around acting like you know it all, you'd better know it all.I wonder if Goofbot will remove his siggy, or if he will continue to advertise his ignorance and dishonesty?He has never backed up an inch - ever. And he has been in dozens of flame wars over FACTS. No one bats a thousand - but some people are crooked little twerps.There's no one on this board who has not seen me eat crow. When I have been misinformed, I have confessed as much - many times. And considering my prodigious intellect and encyclopedic knowledge, it's fair to assume that I have been wrong less than ANYONE. Therefore, I would have less backtracks than anyone, IF everyone we as honest as I.Some are not. G00fgirl is among them.
