Bwahahahaha! You mean that they were NOT there, but you *thought* that
they were?

No, I mean that when one's understanding of the English language reaches
beyond the sixth grade he comes to realize there are something called
"understood" words-

OK! Now I understand.

If anybody proves that you are wrong, you will (retrospectivley) add words
to justify your position!!!!

If you are correct, then why do you need to keep snipping your own
quotation? Huh?
Here it is again.
"How shameful that the commission's attack dogs hold their sacrifices so
cheaply."

"Cheaply", in your quotation, is qualifying the verb "hold". As such, it it
obviously an adverb.

If you wish to disagree with me, then you should confine your comments to
the actual quotation that we are discussing. Your attempts to bring in other
examples are, patently pathetic, efforts to divert attention from your
initial error.
