You can ask a rhetorical question
and you can ask someone a question
but you cannot ask someone a rhetorical question
for when you ask a rhetorical question you don't want and/or expect an
answer, as in,
"What's up with that?"
You can ask a person, "What do you think is up with that?" but then it ain't
rhetorical for you expect an answer.

| (...) Can I ask you a rhetorical question, while still staying with the Hitler subject? Hitler was a vegetarian. Does that prove anything about vegetarians? Fredrik (23 years ago, 21-Jan-02, to lugnet.off-topic.debate)
