    I would guess not necessarily. I don't think there are any commentators in the US who are as far left as he is.

      That could very well be true (it is my impression that goes for quite many people in here). But does that answer the question?

        The comment was pure snark. It wasn't meant to be taken literally. That is why I think you are weird. You seem to either take everything too literally, or do so on purpose as debate strategy by way of nitpicking.

          If wanting a real answer is a strategy then feel free to call it strategy. And you would miss me if I was not here .

            You want a real answer to a snarky comment? That's weird. You do know what "snarky" means? A snide, cutting remark. He wasn't being literal.

              He was avoiding a good point by making that comment. I would like him to give a serious answer but feel free to think that is weird. :-)

                I suppose if he had said, "Yer Mamma wears combat boots" you would want him to provide her boot size and photos.

                  Well, yeah, there's that.
                  The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

                    OK, let's try this again. What commentators? Which states? What's the proof that "it makes zero difference"?

                      A "snarky" comment can still be about a real issue and therefore its legitimate to expect a "real answer".

                        As you can see, I asked for a clarification, Tinkerbell.

                        A "real statement" should contain facts, not just goofus allegations.

                          Can you provide evidence that this is true and legitimate? Provide cites and sources please.
