Is there a forum rule I missed that says everything has to be about YOUR point? How does YOUR point relate to "Rep. Rangel Seeks to Reinstate the Draft" anyway? Sauce for the goose...



Is there a forum rule I missed that prohibits user from calling bullshit on bullshit posts?

I have no problem with thread drift. It's a normal part of casual interactions. .



Apparently you do. When a thread drifts from what YOU want it it be about, you start whining and complaining of BS posts. You make comments about income taxes and that's OK, but when someone comments on sales taxes it's BS. When you comment on medical research it's OK, but when someone comments on the medical system as a whole it's BS.
...

The only sure way to survive a canopy collision is not to have one.

I believe you're talking about my posting information about Federal Income Taxes, in response to another post about taxes. From there, a number of posts were made aboutFederal Income Taxes.

I took offense when you falsely accused me of excluding "state income and sales taxes". It was an offensive, dishonest ploy.

Adding tangential issues to the discussion is completely different (IMO) than accusing someone of excluding them.

Commenting on medical systems as a whole is fine. Making assertions about them to sidestep a tangential topic is BS.

That is a personal attack and not supported by the facts.

The discussion on taxes started with crwtom's post which just mentioned taxes. YOU, NCclimber, narrowed it to federal income tax, and in the very next post I just brought it back to taxes (with no qualifier). In order to make your point you had to exclude all taxes except one, and I was not dishonest for pointing it out.

Your next post was basically a generic statement about taxes. It wasn't until you made a second, third and fourth post, not to mention a lot of posts from others, that you claimed (in a fifth post) I excluded other taxes.

If you think my parameters are too narrow, bring it up on the front end, instead of coming back much later and accusing me of excluding something.

That said, I'd like to apologize for accusing you of dishonesty. I have no more proof of that, than anyone else has proof of my "excluding" anything from the post in question.
