Making stuff up again to make arguments?

You never responded to the challenge when you made this claim yesterday:

http://www.debatepolitics.com/489742-post16.html

Where did the CBO say that? Or is this more of the classic NP "make up facts to support a BS argument" tactic?

Predicted response: 1) no response, or 2) "look it up yourself"

I think Pride cut-n-ran.

What? You think I need your permission? Screw you slick! I don’t need your permission to do a DAMN thing.
I especially don’t need it to point out your BS!
I can’t help it if you don’t like the truth.

Only if I have permission to reply to the one you'll post after this one :rofl :2razz:

Advise to TheHarshTruth : Dont pick and choose who you'll debate on a public forum. It'll make you look like you're one step bellow Michael Moore films. Engaging in debate is the best way to become good at it.

HEAR HEAR! With the utmost respect I have for Cherokee I'd like to take this glorious moment in conservative/liberal and independent relations to shine a lime light into the insightful and as always interesting posts provided by the highly decorated and always loyal soldier. His contributions to Debate Politics are quintessential to the growth of a community such as this one. *Raises up his drink* - Cheers!

Well I meant it more as a joke, I've been watching Wil & Grace too much and I love Karen. I want to be just like her. I think she'd tell you that the two of you should go find a room.
 
Sorry, I meant to use the word “much” instead of “most”. Do you still need proof?

Well considering the fact that we had entered into a European civil war about 30 years before it is not unimaginable that we would not want to enter one again, but once we did enter the war there was massive support amongst the American populace.

Notice I said any war “since wwii”. This time it's your mistake.

Well in that case you're still wrong there was much more protests against the war in Vietnam.

Uh yeah, it's not hard to tell which way the wind is blowing when your dad is a man of influence with the money and tutors to make you president. Even so I always thought it strange how he was so quick to kiss up saying things like 'ich bin ein berliner”.

An American President supporting West Berlin during the height of the cold war is suprising to you?


I believe that “hoax”. Much like I care to believe our current president got into the a cushy spot away from enemy fire because his father was head of the CIA. I also think he went AWOL when he couldn't pass his drug tests even though that meant he had to give up his certification. Like how many pilots willing lose their certification rather than take a drug test? How many go AWOL. Oh, I guess there's no proof other than nobody has records for him and nobody remembers him. See, I pick and choose what makes the most sense to me. I have this little test. Is the person in question able to write his own history? If the answer is yes then I discount the “official” history and look for what is most plausible.

What does one have to do with the other, first of all Dan Rather is full sh!t his "evidence," is a proven forgery, second of all I understand that you choose to believe what you want to believe, because facts are stupid things, while the facts may change your opinion will never change no matter what the facts are.





Yes, my figure is from John Hopkins. It's considered the most accurate count to date by impartial observers throughout the world.

No it's not the figure is a joke and anyone who cites it is a laughing stock, anyone with access to the logic center of their brain can comprehend that a figure of 1 in 40 Iraqi's having been killed in three years is ****ing ludicrous, not to mention that their number is very different from the UNDP which used a comprable methodology only over a much better distributed and larger sample population.

Of course the Bush regime calls it totally bogus. And yes I do blame all of the deaths, probably numbering close to a million now, on us invading Iraq unfairly.

Close to a million, so are you saying that 1 in 27 Iraqi's have died since 2003? You have now lost all credibility that you might have had.

If we hadn't they would still be alive. I blame Bush for the millions of misplaced homeless there too. If we hadn't invaded Iraq al-qaida would not have surged in popularity through out the world. If we had not invaded Saddam would still be killing al-qaida on site because they threatened his rule. If we had not invaded Iraq then Iran would still be stale mated against Iraq. If we hadn't invaded our country wouldn't be on the verge of bankruptcy now. All of these problems are totally the fault of George Bush. We need to open our eyes, much like the Germans needed to open their eyes, and stop Bush. And I wish you would finally open your eyes too TOT.

I get it, the U.S. is responsible for the actions of the terrorists now too, we sure are a pretty convenient scapegoat. Furthermore; are you asserting that you would prefer Saddam to be in power still? Is that your position?
