He’s got you there, **Arty**. You said “sentiment”. Right there it is. Case closed, he wins. A gotchaya is a gotchaya.

Your sentiment, huh?  
[/QUOTE]  
It sure was.

Did you notice what I was talking about?

I was responding to **Aquila Be** ’s statement that “Beauchamp just wants to walk away from the whole mess.”

So your claim that I too assumed that he’d recanted, so he had to be lying at one time or the other, was bullshit.

You know what? I’m tired of your making up stuff, twisting my words, and all that. Justify yourself how you will, but you’ll have to justify yourself to someone else.

Right, and I allowed in my very first post that the Army might be strongarming him. That was enough for you to say that I accused Beauchamp of lying without providing any context to that at all.

It’s enough for a lesser man to start calling people names. 😉
