The Children Overboard issue develops

[King of the Hill]

SS you didn't answered the question.
Come on lad, your integrity is on the line.

:lol:
On the internet! Next time I apply for a job, I'll ask you for a reference as I'm about to concede

You mean the Commander of the HMAS Adelaide, Commander Banks?
He said no one was thrown in the water.
Do you concede this point?

I concede that this El Banko fellow said no one was thrown in the water. Never said otherwise.

 

[Jimbo]

So you do concede that no children were thrown overboard?

I'll concede that I don't care. And neither should anyone else.

Do you concede that these people showed horrific neglect of their children?

You mean Commander Banks of the HMAS Adelaide.
It sounds like you have less respect for him now.

Do you concede that no children were thrown overboard?

There's that 'I don't care' answer again. You don't care enough to make a truck load of posts on the subject.
But well done Jimbo, you have conceded that no children were thrown overboard... and to think, it only took a report from the Chief of the Defence Forces to sway your opinion.

Do you concede that these people showed horrific neglect of their children?

An emotive description.
No I don't concede that because I was not in a position to judge.

I conceded no such thing. I concede that I don't care, because how the children got into the water is irrelevant.

So what do you think about people who willingly put their children's lives at risk?

So you're back flipping? You were so close too. :lol:

I'd send them to Carmens so they'd feel at home.

You tell me. It sounds like you'd be willing to put your own kids in that sort of danger for the sake of proving a point...

If you lived in say, a province in Afghanistan ruled by the Taliban in 2001, wouldn't that be putting your child in danger?

Howard: "I regret very much that the information that is now available was not available for me to make public at the time.

After the evidence emerged, Prime minister John Howard conceded that no children were thrown overboard.

Is Howard lying?

:shock: :lol:
Gotcha.

 

[King of the Hill]

No you didnt. I dont think he's lying.

"Gotcha"
"Game, set, match"

Out of line. It's been a civil debate up until now.

My, what convincing evidence. You don't "think" he's lying. I am completely convinced. How do I subscribe to your newsletter?

Well it's called a difference of opinion.
Welcome to an internet forum, newbie.

Well it was good mate but Howard had to concede that no children were thrown overboard. He maintains that he didn't deliberately lie but instead blamed it on the information he received at the time.

 

[Jimbo]

Low blow from Jimbo, and the ref takes a point off...

Withdrawn.

 

[Anonymous]

That simple apology will suffice Jimbo. We don't hold grudges here.

So he didnt lie?
