I am in awe of this sentence/paragraph:

You were factually incorrect on a pretty deep level.

Amazing. Simply amazing! And then this sentence/paragraph:

It really betrays a deep misunderstanding about reality, if you thought you could competently insist to me that Saddam didn't have WMDs.

Wow. Tell me. What does Thorazine taste like?

I do understand that, instead of acknowledging just how incorrect you were, you'd like to change the topic to talking about my love for Cheney or whatever. I understand why you'd need to change the topic, why don't you just confirm to me that yes you'd like to change the topic away from your massive, massive blunder and I'll gracefully move on with you

Oh yes. I would like very much to 'change the topic away from massive blunder, please do gracefullly move on with me'.

I don't know how you can still believe you're correct when I gave you half a dozen links to go and research.

Are you honestly going to stick to your guns here? You're going to insist, in the face of all evidence, that Saddam didn't have biological WMDs, chemical WMDs and a nuclear program?

Talk about "down the memory hole" - did you at one time know about Saddam's chemical weapons but have since forgotten? Everyone knew Chemical Ali except for you, apparently

Yes. There is a great deal of things you don't know or understand.

Oh look at mister massive brain over here making excuses for why he forgot Chemical Ali existed.

It's because his brain is so massive, so he didn't need to learn about mustard gas or sarin, he has a special big brain privilege where he just authoritatively say "there were no WMDs" and we all have to pretend to believe him or else he'll start crying

Okay baby, you were right, we're all amazed by your powers of perception and recall, Saddam didn't have nerve agents or a nuclear program, go back to sleep little baby and let the grown ups talk
