My bullshit?
>Combining them that way only makes sense if you're trying to falsely imply that Diane Allen is the "whistleblower" being talked about in the second paragraph and is therefore supposedly being dishonest for selfish reasons.
That was not my thought at all, and I disagree with your interpretation. I've tagged you as a liar.

So what was your thought? How do you disagree? What other purpose could cherrypicking two unrelated paragraphs from a long article and arranging them in a misleading way possibly serve?

If I was trying to mislead, then I would not have openly disclosed that I reversed their order! Among your other personal shortcomings, it seems you have flawed reasoning.

So what were you trying to say if you weren't trying to mislead? I suppose you're hoping that nobody reading your replies notices the fact that you keep avoiding saying what your point was in picking those specific paragraphs out of their context and reversing their order. How about instead of coming up with imagined flaws in me, you do that?

I wrote that answer to another poster (Sheppex) in the same subthread.
On the subject of "imagined" flaws, upthread you said,
>Combining them that way only makes sense if you're trying to falsely imply that Diane Allen is the "whistleblower"
The two paragraphs in question clearly say they're two different people, "Diane Allen, a retired lieutenant colonel" and in regard to the whistleblower, "dismissed from service". "Dismissed" does not equal "retired"!
At best, your charge that I was falsely implying they were the same person was flawed reasoning on your part, at worst it was an intentional lie.

I'll quote your reply to the other commenter:
>Reversing the sequential order made more sense to my mind as a reader, that's all.
That's just a dodge, and it's obvious to everyone, which is why that comment is sitting at -7 when I'm typing this. What's the "sense" it's making to you?
I'm done with this discussion. It's already obvious to everyone with eyes that you're commenting in bad faith, and I'm tired of this.

I'm not commenting in bad faith, I've been abused by you.
