Senditin's other statement:

And from this you proved that the question was loaded? Yeah, OK.
Senditin is clearly implying that one is in favor of having Saddam in power if he opposed the war. That premise is a complete fallacy because it is very concievable (to most of us) that you can believe Saddam to be an SOB, but at the same time realize that more good could have been done by not going to war. I anticipated that you two would make that flawwed connection, as you have and as you generally do, thus I chose not to answer.
I guess D2Bets isn't as sharp as you because he fell right into the trap. Is that what your saying?
D2 seems sharp to me, but I cannot judge him because I don't him. I can speculate on why he choose to answer - perhaps he felt that Senditin's question was in good faith and would be subject to a flawwed spin of illogic by you two? Perhaps he felt he could reason with Senditin? I honestly don't know, but I suggest that if you sincerely want the answer (which you clearly don't) then you ask D2 instead of me.
On the postive side, I do appreciate your concession that it was a trap - it was the first honest thing I've read from your-delusional-self in some time.
I can just picture the next Democratic debate:
Moderator: Mr. Dean, if president would you repeal President Bush's tax cuts.
Howard Dean: That is a loaded question. I will not answer.
Viewer at home: god what an idiot.
I'm pretty sure that a qualified moderator would address the Governor as Governor Dean, but regardless I'm certain that Governor Dean's are not a reflection of my informed opinion. The man has a long history of political success as well as medical success, so I anticipate his insights and retorts would be exponentially more accurate and articulate that the majority of ours. Again, I urge you to ask Governor Dean instead of me if indeed you need his positions clarified for you. I'm sure he's dealt with slow people before, so he might be able to explain things is a more simple manner that you could better grasp.
I recommend that begin your search here -
www.deanforamerica.com - the site should contain sufficient information regarding the upcoming fund raisers in your area. Perhaps Governor Dean would entertain your inquiries after a fundraising dinner?

That was the criteria posed to you, you must answer "yes or no". Either you're incapable of following directions, you cannot comprehend simple statements, or you learned first hand that the world is not as simple as "yes or no".
