… Yet you accuse me of a Warnable offense.  
I deserve an explanation and an apology. And go ahead and tell us why Bloomberg made the sudden 180-degree turn.

Keep hoping for that apology, CarnalK said

Then you responded to that quote by saying

Here’s the post (slightly modified) I endorsed and thanked:

Sheeeesh. To agree with a poster, one must agree with every single adjective in the post? 😕

And, _a propos_ of the “confused” icon, I’m still waiting for you to explain his bizarre 180-degree shift? Regardless of Bloomberg’s religion, the motives you seem to ascribe to him _“Do Not Compute.”_
