Default The Democrats Said, and I quote!

Actually, I did read it, because I couldn't believe Safire would have said all
the things you appeared to have claimed.

So, you did exactly what the Dems are saying Bush did - you made it sound like
you meant one thing while maintaining deniability.

So let me get that straight, are you saying that that whole thing you

attributed
to Safire you just made up?


Jeff, I wouldn't be so foolish as to point to a specific source and then
make up content for the cited material. Somebody might actually go and read
it. (Well, maybe not much of a risk in this group.)

One of the reasons the language has paragraph separations is to minimize
confusion like what you apparently experienced. New paragraph = new line of
thought.

As I indicated before, what Safire said was summarized in the first
paragraph. That's why I introduced it with "He notes." Based on what Safire
had noted, I presented my analysis in the following paragraph. Capice?
