Give me a break.....you do the exact same things you accuse me of.
 Mischaracterize?  Where?  I advocate a balanced perspective on things, and
when I do, you constantly use the straw man of "so you are saying its fraud
is ok" when I did nothing of the kind.

I didn't address your issues in the last message because they are more of
the same, and I have already addressed them (and I don't have an infinite
amount of time).  And I get tired of your habit of ridiculing anyone who
doesn't agree with you, then crying "personal attack" as soon as they argue
back.
