Major laughter at quoting me out of context too. Thank you so much for proving a point for me.

The line that followed explained the line he quoted. The two sentences work together to make the point that saying "stop it" to some one you have no power over is going to have no effect.

You can read the full context in post #20.

There are a certain number of posters here whose entire positions and arguments would completely crumble if they tried even just a little bit to read the full context of the opposing side's arguments or apply just a modicum of reading comprehension.

The alternative is easier, I guess.

Edit: I should also add that reading the full context would reveal at least a quarter more of posts as actually being in agreement with the opposing side.

And the first line by itself does not convey that sense of impotence? I disagree. On its own it strikes me as a most impotent and indecisive riposte.

That was the point. I did exactly what he is crying about Obama doing, except without making a joke of it. I then, clearly, made reference to the fact that what I did was just as futile as Obama trying to control the media.

Ah, then we agree.... to tell people to stop posting that which they do not like is an impotent and indecisive and withal futile statement to make.

And will you also agree that Zimmer posted my quote out of context, which you questioned, and that Obama was not actually trying to get the media to not report stuff?
