Damo, where is the thread.... about Job losses??
- Thread starter Jarod

Right, you've started to pretend that this is somehow what you meant with the first inaccurate post about what I said. (Again ironically considering the actual content of your first post in the thread).
Again. It is stupid to pretend that somebody here is "reporting" something, we're holding conversations based off the reports of others. (BTW - After listening again to the report from the guy in the morning he said, "If you take out the temporary jobs it is less than half of expectations...", I heard him wrong and think it is stupid to take out the expected temp jobs and then say something like that.) If you are unable to comprehend how conversations work then you should log off and start having a few with actual people.
Sure. So, when I post "We now know that there is irrefutable evidence that Bush planned the 9/11 attacks," and you call me on it, and I admit that I got that info from a consipiracy forum on DailyKos, we'll be all hunky dory.
Gotcha.
Usually it goes like this.
1. You say something like that.
2. About six people post, "Link?" or some version thereof.
3. We find out it is from Kos and say, "Okay, we'll take that with a grain of salt." or "What a hack!"
4. About a zillion posts follow where Bushites defend everything from the stupid pill bill to invading nations without a declaration of war.
It's how conversations work.
In this case I said that I had heard it on the radio and that I would check the reports later when I had time. When I got that time I did exactly that and corrected my previous statement. Amazingly, it was exactly what I said I would do. I know you don't expect that as Democrats rarely do what they say they will....

This is incredibly disingenuous. You said you heard it on the radio after I asked you twice. You did not start with "I heard that...", or "I heard on the radio that."
You posted it as a statement of fact. I will not say that again. I can't believe that you do not comprehend the difference.
Unlike a verbal conversations sometimes there is a pause between what we say to each other here, based on time constraints and actual availability. It is stupid to pretend that I am hovering all the time ready to instantly answer every post you have.
It is only hacktacularly childish people who think they are the center of the universe and believe they have "caught" you on something that pretend that is the case. More reasonable posters actually read what people say, comprehend it, then if they talk about it later do not misrepresent the conversation based on their particular bias and assumption rather than what happened. They do this so they won't be caught so embarrassingly as you were on this thread "moving the posts" on what you originally stated... (I love that irony. It's better than Iron Kids Bread!)
It's pretty funny that you keep using some derivation of the word hack. None of what I am posting is in keeping with some argument that I'm an Obama apologist or that my view is "D-colored." You, on the other hand, heard on the radio that 162,000 was "half" of 184,000, and determined that was correct and could be posted as a statement of fact.
And again - had I not called you on it TWICE, we never would have gotten the "oh, I just heard that on the radio - have to check the #" qualifier.
Truly embarassing. You're the energizer bunny on stuff like this, though...
I'll keep posting this from earlier. It is pretty much all that needs to be said.
What is it with you lately? You've got to be the hugest hacktackular idiot lately, and that's saying something. You've usurped Cypress.
There's nothing wrong with being partisan, but I know you are actually capable of understanding what people said, instead you do this.
No, you are a hack for pretending the rest of the conversation never happened and then attempting to defend yourself with this idiocy.

I'm not pretending the rest of the conversation never happened. I'm ridiculing you for thinking the rest of the conversation is at all salient to my point.
My point - once again, and hopefully for the last time - was that your initial post was a STATEMENT OF FACT. It matters not that you clarified it later on, after being called on it twice (and, which I was aware of because I responded to your clarification, also with ridicule). Again, this is how misinformation gets spread. People hear something on a right-wing radio station, or read it in a forum, or whatever, and REPEAT IT AS A STATEMENT OF FACT.
And no, Virginia - you would not have 'fessed up that you heard it on the radio if no one called you on it. It would have sat there, as a statement of fact.
Who is hacktacular? Who again?
Actually I never saw your post "correcting" me, but I did post this later after checking the information as I said I would.
And earlier I posted quotes that showed that I said I was encouraged by the numbers. There's no reason to pull a Onceler and start hacking all over Topper.
Again that is total bull, that suddenly became your "point" later after you knew I'd be able to show you the truth of the conversation and it is STILL based on a total pretense that I am somehow a news source and "report" things rather than hold conversations.
And to answer you last question in the post:

It's not total bull; you have no leg to stand on for that claim.
And you brought up how people ask for a link as soon as someone posts something with conviction, as you did, or make a statement of fact when a statement of opinion would have served them better. And how they get ridiculed when they can't produce such a link.
You do not have to be a "news source" to post things accurately - either statements of fact which ACTUALLY are facts, or statements that begin with "I heard that" or "I think I heard on the radio that."
How hard is that concept? This is truly amazing.

It was a conversation, one that you pretended didn't happen.
Just a quick FYI - when you do this kind of mimic thing, it's the same as saying "what you said the other day was true, and really got under my skin."
Just going forward...
He thrusts his fists against the posts & still insists he sees the ghosts, eh?
Yes, he does.
