The general feeling is that it's not possible to have a rational, logical discussion with him and certainly my little exchange has borne that out.<BR/><BR/>No sense in repeating this activity: I've done it once and published the findings for all to see. If I did this again it would have to be out of boredom on an unbelievably slow week!Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10978812670312106107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19208183.post-30715730798990685792007-02-11T10:50:00.000+00:002007-02-11T10:50:00.000+00:00I agree with the young, greek.

Terry Kelly may be doing a Michael Howard impression but I have got the feeling from my own discussions with him that it is nearly impossible to have a normal discussion with him. I got bored very quickly after he jumped, hopped and avoided arguments.<BR/><BR/>An idiot in East Renfewshire - leave well alone, Will.Reactionary Snobhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13607807975154290987noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19208183.post-23433999968996389072007-02-10T13:46:00.000+00:002007-02-10T13:46:00.000+00:00Oh, the rational argument went out the window very...Oh, the rational argument went out the window very early on in proceedings, and the whole thing turned into a Paxman-esque 'Did you threaten to over-rule him?' moment. Still, if he can't answer a clear question then he's managed to blow the whole 'I don't duck questions' guff out of the water.<BR/><BR/>He won't realise that, of course, just as he doesn't realise that he actually supports some forms of discrimination, or that he's one of the bloggers he's recently sought to condemn. Luckily, everyone else who follows this will be able to realise it.<BR/><BR/>On reflection, though, I missed the most interesting thing of his last tirade, when he said that he didn't have to justify himself to me. I wonder if he holds the same attitude towards his constituents. I don't know how many readers (if any) I have in Ferguslie, or if TelKel himself has readers there. Anyone from there, feel free to drop me a line and put your two cents worth in.Willhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10978812670312106107noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19208183.post-34443496204769083152007-02-10T10:48:00.000+00:002007-02-10T10:48:00.000+00:00There's a saying about not arguing with an idiot, ...There's a saying about not arguing with an idiot, lest no-one can tell the difference.<BR/><BR/>As a smart guy, there should come a point where you stop trying to have a rational argument with this dolt.

It would be fantastic viewing. The old empty vessel would surely be up for it with his ego. It could be the first reverse party political broadcast ever shown.
