Then you sure have spent a lot of time on what "this thread is not about".

That's really odd since you introduced the topic (I interrupted as another 'iteration' of what the OP has referred to in this thread)...

Actually, YOU introduced the topic:

I understand creating unsupportable positions out of thin air, attempting to distract with what was or wasn't on birth certificates, and finally wanting to move on. But please don't act like I was the one that started down this fantasy rabbit trail.

Shall we?

I'll try to respect the OP on this thread for a third and final time.

Scm53, as everyone knows, you introduced the subject of African-American population loss which I have discussed several times. The post regarding hispanic population loss was meant as an accompanying subject which is becoming obscured by this inter-personal volley between you and I which has nothing to do with the OP. As a result, this thread is going off-topic.

With all due respect, please honor the OP and keep the thread focused. I am not continuing this tit-for-tat discussion and hijack this thread. If you want to continue this other topic which you introduced, I am more than happy to discuss on another thread. Thank you.

Nice try. All I said was that the NY Times had picked up the story - without comment. Any attempt to pin this on me isn't rooted in fact.

If you didn't want to be challenged on this ridiculous notion of "white Hispanics", then you shouldn't have introduced it. Especially since this new concern for being "on topic".
