146. You are defining my perception of attack, and you not hearing what I said.
I said, I didn't know if what Cindy had said even WAS an attack.

Telling the truth isn't attacking someone.

But attacking is more like getting up and going to war. It's walking up and verbally smearing a mess on someone. Telling the truth isn't an attack.

Cindy saying that about Bush wasn't attacking him.

I define attack as a slam without a factual basis or something that is said with such force that the force is the only thing that can be remembered.

If I were a resturant worker and took a plate of spagetti and slammed it in your face while I nicely said, "Enjoy your meal" it's still and attack.

If I were that same resturant worker and laid your plate down soundly and said, "People in Louisianna are starving and you are eating out you pig, Brown," then I'd be pushing it a little, but it's closer to telling the truth than a direct attack.
