And an argument like the one you're making here is a legitimate one,
while a
lie like Ford is perpetuating is not.

Where was the lie? If a statement is ambiguous that doesn't make it a lie
if you
disagree with one of the possible interpretations of it.

Buddabing! (rimshot)

I think you've just put your finger on it, Gunner. So, if you can get away
with a plausible denial about the meaning of something that can be parsed
into a valid syllogism but which is presented to give a false impression,
you'll accept it as "truth," eh?

If you like that, you'll *love* reading Goebbels. You're just the kind of
student he would have appreciated. g
