I don't hate him.
Don't dislike him for his politics.
Don't have a beard, nor read the Grauniad.
It's obvious in that case, that my point wasn't directed at you!
But then again your spelling of Guardian does make me suspect you're a Private Eye reader. I don't know what's worse...
Well it's also obvious from your argument that in your opinion his detractors hate him, have (presumably in your opinion) suspect politics, and read certain publications.Pogo":1kensleg said:It's obvious in that case, that my point wasn't directed at you!Neil":1kensleg said:I don't hate him.Pogo":1kensleg said:He is still very popular but because of his politics he's a target for the beardy, weirdy, guardian readers.

I very much hope you're not involved in any investigatory role in the police force, then, with that sort of suspicion...Pogo":1kensleg said:

I think you are barking up the wrong tree.
I only stated that he is- "hated by Guardian reading, beardy weirdies".
Carefully consider that sentence because I haven't said-
I stated that he is only- "hated by Guardian reading, beardy weirdies".
Now this is where you go off tangent because my statement doesn't disallow others to hate him or to dislike him or to have a slightly uncomfortable bum when he's on telly. The fact that you plainly stated that you don't hate him, don't read the guardian etc. means you are in a group I had no interest in defining.
Neither do I state that 'all' his detractors hate him. I made no mention of any one else apart from a small group of beirdy, weirdy guardian readers.
BTW The comment about Private Eye was a joke, no need to call the police or worry about anything...
:roll:
Eh? I didn't make this distinction you're asserting, either - look at what you wrote, and what I replied with.Pogo":2hvo7nvs said:
(NB: also worthing pointing out you cocked-up the quotes claiming I wrote something that actually I didn't).
You didn't make any other distinctions or allowances, and neither did I in reply, so spare me some odd accusation that I'm fitting you up.Pogo":2hvo7nvs said:
