I read the following sentence a number of times and it didn't seem to make complete sense to me. "If you can't see the King Bullshitter at work here and Im not that person then something is really wrong." So I thought back to my Philosophy 103 Logic class and tried applying rules of logic. Anyone that knows logic well, please correct me if I applied rules incorrectly, it was MANY years ago. The statement is basically composed of three separate conditions: From the wording of the sentence, I take this to mean that if condition A is true, AND condition B is true, then condition C is true. What complicates understanding of the statement is that the three conditions are negative to begin with. However, my understanding is that if we negate all three conditions (thus making them positive) we still come out with a true statement. By applying this logic, Jimbo could make the following statement and it would be true. Did I analyze that correctly? Your friend Bill Gore/Lieberman 2000!
