Report: Obama lied about bin Laden raid

That other poster did not merely make an observation, as I had in my initial post. He sought to insult as well. "Sock puppet" is hardly a term of endearment. Was it because my initial comment in this thread was that of a drone? I don't think so. It was a considered opinion in the face of the available evidence presented thus far. When he decided to discuss apparel, why then, so did I.

Fair enough. Sock puppet isn't very flattering, but it is appropriate commentary for someone who has "soiled" his/her previous moniker in such a fashion that it required opening a new account and starting "fresh". No one here (but you) knows the reasoning behind why you did it, but it gives you relative "anonymity" to everyone else, and that is viewed as somewhat cowardly. That's probably why he said "sock puppet". What's worse, it appears to be true.

Justified or unjustified, you are taking leaps. Rather than considering and commenting on the content of my innocuous 3- or 4-sentence post, you immediately sought to determine its source. It was just a couple of sentences or so. Was it really that hard to consider the content at face?

I did not comment on your post because I agreed with it. I think the evidence supports that there was no lie in the original raid statements. That's my opinion. However, far more noteworthy for me is to know who I am speaking with. I don't plan on letting this go, just so you understand, until I know who that is.


It's okay to have your own opinion and take sides. That's what this forum is about. But please don't try to pass yourself off as an arbiter. However you may try to cloak it, what you invariably express is opinion and bias. And that's okay. Except for the cloaking part. Because a cloak is an item of apparel, and that brings us back to Square Two, my initial post being Square One.

I never claimed to be an arbiter. I have a personal interest in knowing which previous moniker is hiding behind your newly created one. My early frontrunner guess is Brass, and if that's true, this would make it your third or fourth moniker.
