My suspicion is that this was his/her intent all along. Sort of the political-debate version of a troll. Coming into a thread, making some comment that doesn't even attempt to be basically relevant to the topic, designed to lure rational people into a debate with someone who never intended to honestly participate in the first place. How many times have we seen it? The ad hominem attacks, irrelevant political cartoons from random internet rags, citations of easily-debunked sources, etc. Surely he can't think he's winning these debates? The only explanation is that winning isn't his intention--that his goal is to stir things up and make people angry. Well, life's too short: I vote we stop taking the bait.
