CH,
I have said it before, and I will say it again:

TAKE YOUR WRITINGS BEYOND COMMENTARIES. YOU WRITE VERY GOOD.

BTW, I can’t delete your thread, it is already more than seven days old. Sorry!

nepalonmymind,

Finally, finally, finally, you wrote something that I completely disagree with. Thank you.

You said:

“When you write a political write up, try to come up with compelling, thought provoking points that others have not come up with so far, rather than a summary of observations that we have 'kinda' heard before.”

I was just trying to be a columnist, not a political philosopher. Did you not feel like I was trying to make this essay objective to the point of being numerical? One can say that he doesn’t agree with me, but he cannot say I am wrong about the numbers; that was the goal. I have given you all the data. Paul Krugman of The New York Times is my favorite columnist, because he often sells his point of view through data, or through chewed out analysis of data.

There are many ways to persuade people, I believe in data whenever it is available.

Thank you for reading. If you only knew how much I value your comments.
