My first impression was that his argument compared to his very well documented world view and values was cynical and disingenuous. I wasn't saying it for effect or to offend, I used those words because there aren't a slew of good alternatives that don't involve dancing around the actual meaning. There's polite and there's treating your treating your reader like a child, I didn't want to do the latter. I felt that would be more likely to offend, and Doc takes a skeptical view of PC'ness and effete liberals, i figured he and to a lesser extent his audience could handle the directness.
"Semantics and Silly Words" was a just something to put in the title and more a comment on the subject of my post not his. What looks like malice is just OCD for alliteration.
I gotta say for a site that leans away from the delicate liberal worldview it seems odd to see my words finely parsed so as to find things to get offended about. Next thing I know someone is going to start hating on old rich, white guys. ; )
Cheers
