Why would he do something like this?

It's a real mystery: why would and intelligent and educated man, one who clearly can read (at least when he wants to), moreover one who prides himself on his niceness, stoop to such blatant, and pointless, misrepresentation?

Back in October, Victor Reppert posted 'Why Republicans won't repeal Obamacare even if they are elected' (which is just a link to a poorly, and hypocritically (*), reasoned leftist fantasy. But, the point now is a not that fantasy, but rather Victor Reppert's sad decline into leftism.

I said:
Not to worry -- it will be repealed one way or another: either patriotic Americans will repeal it or God himself will repeal it (as an effect of allowing the USA to collapse).
VR pretended to reply:
There are numerous countries with far more socialistic forms of health care (such as out and out socialized medicine as we find in Britain, France, Canada, and Cuba). I mean shoot, there isn't even a public option, for crying out loud. Apparently the Almighty has not struck those countries down, for reasons that I am sure are known only to Ilion.
Now, as *any* man can clearly see, and as any *honest* man will readily admit, VR grossly misprepesented what I said.

Why would he do something like this?


(*) Consider just this one bit of it -- "1) Romney has no authority to issue waivers." Consider the hubris -- alleged-President Obama issues waivers right and left, but a hypothetical President Romney has no authority to issue waivers to this wholly unConstitutional "law", that Congress has no authority to enact in the first place.
