Do you have any proof that the quotes aren't valid?

Your exact words Thrawn.

Uhhh Hortland, the Coulter quotes were substatiated with references, your quotes where not.  Do you see the difference there?  Coulters were substantiated, yours were not.  Coulters were substantiated, yours were not.

Does that change the burden of proof? Does that change the burden of proof? Does that change the burden of proof?

Yes.  

The proof of the quotes existance is given with the reference.    If you don't think the references are valid you must state why.  Did you have to go to university before you supposedly became a jr judge.  Have you ever written a university paper?

I find this discussion pointless Thrawn. If you honestly believe that the burden of proof switches over when someone provides a reference for a quote, Im not really sure how to respond...lets just say that you are wrong, and leave it at that.

Consider this one:
"I am a moron"

Apparently you are of the opinion that after I posted that, the burden of proof for the statement jumps over to you...now it is you who have to prove that you never said such a thing...well, good luck.

"This thread is moronic" - Tahgut 1/28/2003

[Dowding]

Well it started badly, tailed off quite considerably through the middle and the less said about the end the better. But apart from that it was moronic...err... I mean excellent.

To quote me.

"If you don't think the references are valid you must state why."

Why don't I think that the reference is valid?  

First, I'm the one quoted and I have first had knowledge that I don't recall the conversation or the call in the first place.  

Second I highly doubt you have access information regarding my personal phone calls.  But I will concede it is possible I made the statement, then suffered amniesia or some similar even might have occured.  It's just very improbable.

Cripes, Sweden should make me a judge.

Christ almighty Hortland, this is what you are saying is a valid response to a statment.

Thrawn: The sky is blue.

Hortland: Prove it.

Thrawn: I looked outside, the sky was blue.

Hortland: I don't believe you.

Thrawn: Alrighty then.


It should be like this.

Thrawn: The sky is blue.

Hortland: Prove it.

Thrawn: I looked outside, the sky was blue.

Hortland: That could just mean the sky blue where you looked.



Check this out.

udet: Here's a Coulter quote "People like you caused us to lose that war."

Hortland: I don't believe that's a quote.

udet:  It comes MSNBC.

Hortland:  I think that's not a valid reference because it's to generic.

[Hortlund]

Wow, my first stalker.

What I was objecting to was the source. If someone says something, and gives "MSNBC" as a source, how do I proceed if I want to check that up?

They only get better as they multiply.  

Besides, I wouldnt be too proud - Democrats are equal opportunity stalkers.

I have found that bringing up the following quote usually brings Ann Coulter adoration threads to a rather abrupt end.

"My only regret with Timothy McVeigh is he did not go to the New York Times Building."

[The Observer reporter] told her to be careful.

"You’re right, after 9/11 I shouldn’t say that," she said, spotting a cab and grabbing it.

Hooray for terrorism!

Exactly, I would have no problem with by last example.

"udet: Here's a Coulter quote "People like you caused us to lose that war."

Hortland: I don't believe that's a quote.

udet: It comes MSNBC.

Hortland: I think that's not a valid reference because it's to generic."



But I would if the exchange went like this.


udet: Here's a Coulter quote "People like you caused us to lose that war."

Hortland: I don't believe that's a quote.

udet: It comes MSNBC.

Hortland: I don't believe that's a valid reference.


The last response doesn't give any sort of explanation as to why the reference isn't valid.
