(32,640 posts)You understood the metaphor just fine. You just can't admit that you would indeed seek out experience over celebrity/ lack of experience when it came to choosing a surgeon for a procedure, and your GP would absolutely agree, and that would mean that I had a point about the value of experience in handling a serious situation. Which Pelosi has in spades, more so than rookies, no matter much a media star they may be.
The number of responses that you have gotten that state how your post came across is evidence that, intentional or not, that you were disssing Pelosi and saying that her experience was not as valuable as "new ideas" from those who have more celebrity.
What one usually does is say, "Well, I've learned something here, and clearly I didn't make my point well, thank you for pointing it out, I'll be more cognizant of that next time" instead of doubling down, which makes any claim that your post was misunderstood less, not more plausible.
You're welcome.
Now, as you said so many replies ago, "We're done."
