The reason those fallacies work is because of the unspoken doctrine of overwhelming numbers. Antagonists persist with these fallacies until opponents are worn out from combating them. I knew there was an explanation for the huge disparity in the reported numbers of teabaggers- birthers-deathers-racists in DC for the demonstration. I thought the rightie-racists were simply lying but I see you looked up all the necessary logical terms to explain their bull****. Harry, you seem to be wrong about quite a few things. One of those things that you can add to your list is that I "looked up all the necessary logical terms." And another one that I haven't looked up and appears to be the fallacy of choice with you (and others) is the ignoratio elenchi. If you have any intellectual curiosity on this matter you may do a search of the term in conjunction with Aristotle's name. Ahh, but I know the terms...I don't have to look them up. I'm a liberal arts grad, after all. Wonderful! Perhaps you can help me, Harry, in determining the correctness of this syllogism: All Liberal Arts grads diligently study "logic." It was a requirement when I went to college. I'll give you the benefit of the doubt, then. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

Basically, it's making light out of assassinating a president. When would this ever be funny. You still don't "get" herring, eh? ..and the real kicker...Johnny was a career military man and now lives the high life on an overly generous Uncle Sam pension with benefits. Can you imagine the nerve of this man talking about his Comander & Chief in this manner? Disrespectful, in the least! I don't know John, but the office of president, the symbol of it needs to be respected. John is a real nasty guy. You should believe anything Harry, Donny, or Scott Dickson say about him. -- John H |

That's not what you said. sure you did. i left your words intact above. what do you wish to retract or deny? My comment was about what *you* wrote, not what I wrote. You wrote "as i said, the rich hates the middle class", but that was not what you had previously written. Your previous statement was "courtesy of the bush project to enrich the already rich by having the middle class take it in the shorts" That says nothing about hate of anyone. i'm proud to be middle class. you hate *us? i'm proud of that, too. And that's not what I said, or implied. *Your attempts to spin and create fact out of fallacy is duly noted. *It is your MO.- again, what part of 'middle class' don't you understand? I neither stated, or implied, that I hated anyone. What part of that do you not understand? At first I thought your non sequitur responses were deliberate attempts to obfuscate the issue. I'm starting to believe that your inability to follow a thread in a logical manner is intrinsic to your nature. cya You're observation is probably correct, Jack. It's maddening how the propagandists, mostly on the left of center, will employ logical fallacy after logical fallacy and consider those fallacies to be strong arguments. One can point out the ad hominem, the non sequitur, the red herring, the strawman, the hasty generalization, et al, and they'll resort to the very same fallacies. The reason those fallacies work is because of the unspoken doctrine of overwhelming numbers. Antagonists persist with these fallacies until opponents are worn out from combating them. I haven't encountered a single logically-minded 'progressive' in this forum as of yet. No, but you came up with a great oxymoron - logically-minded progressive. -- John H |

I wonder if the patent office would allow me to submit that as a new contradiction-of-terms construction? I suspect, though, a patent search would yield numerous submissions. -- Posted via NewsDemon.com - Premium Uncensored Newsgroup Service -------http://www.NewsDemon.com------ Unlimited Access, Anonymous Accounts, Uncensored Broadband Access |

Someone took a magic marker to a photo of Air Force One. There was a slew of, in poor taste, jokes and remarks about our former president. But that's different, right? |
