My binary thinking? Try reading the thread again so you can see what post I was responding to and therefore what context my comment was in.
Let me try and break it down for you:
1- OP is supposed to show that Liberal has epiphany and changes political stripes.
2- First response, from a Liberal, says, in essence, "he only changed because he's obviously old and senile"
3- Second response, from a Conservative, implied that far from being old and senile and thus discredited- "intelligence comes from experience".
I simply pointed out in a round about way that 3 weeks ago the same people were making the exact OPPOSITE argument.
It's a polemic I identified and laughed at, that's all.
