See, we are talking about Truman, not pendergast. You are asserting first that Pendergast is as bad as Mugabe, which just isn't true (are they similar? perhaps similar in that they do similar types of things but I suppose Pendergast was also similar to Stalin; similarity is not equivalency) and then you make the huge l;eap from an association with pendergast to being as bad as Pendergast and thus as bad as Mugabe. If my hallmark is a refusal to see wrong, yours is a remarkable ability to work yourself up over causes that exist largely in your own mind.

Again, how is rising to prominence through a corrupt political machine accurately described as rising to prominence through "hard work and grit"?
You can't come on here and say it's hard work and grit, and then conveniently fail to acknowledge that he was part of a corrupt political machine. Sorry, I think that's inaccurate and misleading. |
