nt - he absolutely can be critical of a singular event.

My response to him indicated that seems to only express that event as the totality of Washington as a politician; it doesn't imply his criticism in this case is inaccurate.

The fallacy is (and you do this often too) is to speak only of a singular action from a man and then paint that as the character of the man in entirety.

Isolating one thing and ignoring everything else is intentionally misleading.

Is Washington's political ideology summed up by or dominated by that singular event?

Did he ever do anything else that demonstrates otherwise?

I'd think so, given the need to use this example over and over and over.
