You are the king of obfuscation, Larry. You turn people's comments in every
direction and ignore the core of the argument.

Of course, I already said that in the post before this (which you've
snipped). I'm not the wordmeister here, never have been or pretend I am. And
I have no problem being incorrect or inaccurate about anything and I try to
be the first to admit it. But I don't find it intellectually redeeming to
stubbornly cling to the notion that Communism shall always be failed system
in and of itself. That's something you cannot prove.

If you want to think that way, it's your own loss.

You spelled "behavior" wrong. Does that mean you don't grasp the basic
knowledge of American English spelling?

Well, you haven't really been reasonable today, that's for sure. And you
spelled "behavior" wrong again.

Oh yeah, my fault, you're supposed to be the forum moderator. Sorry, it
won't happen again, Daddy.
