More rotten egg in his face

Brief rejoinder to Basil

By Rajpal Abeynayake

(August 20, Colombo, Sri Lanka Guardian) I don’t think I need to continue this, but this just for the record.

Bromide Basil (BB) has comprehensively conceded the argument, but flails around and converts his previous bromides into still more Basil like ones, and finally cries off.Can any sane person --- other than a knocked-out prevaricator ---- who followed this exchange not have followed the thread of my argument?

I said, simply, that Pinto is guilty of egregious distortion of facts by painting this period in the worst possible light in terms of human rights, while being in cahoots with those who committed worse human rights violations in the past.

I wrote about Pinto’s deception, and BB throws the 78 constitution at me.

I wrote back to BB about Pinto and her deception, and BB throws the 78 constitution at me again.

I say I’m not a defender of this government, leave alone the 78 constitution, and that this fact is proven because the newspaper I edit takes on the Rajapaksa regime on a routine basis. He throws the 78 constitution at me, says I claimed Sri Lanka was paradise, and that I’m ‘following the party line.’’ (!)

As far as I’m concerned, BB can’t be arguing with me.

He is arguing with somebody else, maybe his humbug alter-ego, or his bromide blood brother. Let’s let this flailing joker stew in his own juice.

As for Pinto’s “well informed lawyerly postulations’’ that nobody has challenged, wow, I’m impressed. Her benefactor is doctor Rice. The LTTE’s chief ideologue was ‘doctor’ Anton Balasingham. All these lettered BBs bozos and Pintos are (petty piddling…?) peas in a pod … and the more of these I can take the micky out of, I’d say, make my day punk.
