Strawman Thread

[Хahar 🤔]

Let's get this thing started:

Look for the left's response to any thread over the past five years asking if we should invade Iran.

I win?

Why the heck would a minor not be allowed to pump gas?  Heck, I pumped gas in our family car when I was like 10 - back when it used to be fun.  Now I'd rather stay in the car than get out and do it (especially when it's freezing cold).

Er, don't you listen to the global warming proponents?  They will tell you that "freezing cold" is something from the past, and if you believe you are experiencing it, then you're some kind of nut.

[Хahar 🤔]

God gave us this land, now we want to give it away to these monsters?

God given land my arse!  You know for well that land actually belongs to the Palestinians, and if anything its the Israeli government who're the monsters for being arrogant enough to deny that!

But, seeing as Israel isn't going anywhere soon, its government could have the good sense to withdraw back to the intended 1948 boundaries and accept and recognise the presence of a fully independent Palestinian state.  For one thing, Israel's Arab neighbours might be somewhat less pissed off at the aforementioned.

Kind of too easy, but:

Why is it when americans riot agianst stupid government-controlled insurance and healthcare, idiot statist liberals consider this group a mob orchestrated from insurance companies,especially when this is happening around the country, when some are democrats, when some are asking good questions(maybe a little without them yelling but other than that) ahd libs can't even ask a sincere question?

But when a black conservative from St Louise gets beat up by bunch of union mobs and when an old lady gets pushed up against a wall by more union mobs, and when a guy gets his shirt ripped open and chest cut, that's just OK, right?

If it's anything, it's these trade union jerks being orchestrated by probably liberal politicians and if not by politicians, Obama and libs politicians certainly ain't really doing anything to help out it.

SO, WHO'S THE MOB?

[Хahar 🤔]

What a bunch of neo-LIBS.  You complained for years about government monitoring the citizens (those that were suspected of potentially attacking the US or supporting those that would) and now you're all gungho.  "It's wrong unless we do it."  That's all I'm hearing from you.  I guess it's a good thing that you are showing your true colors. 

[Хahar 🤔]

No, no.  When it falls it will be the fault of 60 year old chubby women in Des Moines screaming at an official nobody has ever heard of.



...and Bush.

[Хahar 🤔]

nukes are teh evil, 100% every time, nothing will change the mind of the close minded anti-war crusader


(although some of them think Iran should have them....just for balance of course)

[Хahar 🤔]

Correct, because the left....NO...not "the left"....what do you guys want to be called anyway?  Let me start over...

Correct because the people opposite of the "right wingers" are willing to throw minorities under the bus to make the govt bigger and they don't see a problem with this.

We are all in the Klan and hate everybody that isn't a WASP, what do you expect?  You "opposite rightwingers" are supposed to be better than that.  You're the ones that think Affirmative Action isn't a racist policy.  You're the ones that thought bussing kids all over town was a good idea.  You're the ones that call any black guy to the right of you an Uncle Tom as if that's not an insult when someone as openminded as "opposite rightwingers" use it.

But hey, it's not easy to wash away a hundred and fifty years of over the top racism with 40 years of subtle, sympathetic racism.

[Хahar 🤔]

I call it like it is.

[Хahar 🤔]

I liked this thread better when we played hangman

Yeah, it was less depressing.

[Хahar 🤔]

Now lets see who comes in to defend this asshat or the PRC.

[Хahar 🤔]

All these stupid charges of racism are just getting ridiculous.  Unless you have PROOF that his comment was racist, don't claim it as such.  And I don't mean proof by his past - I mean proof as in for this circumstance.

Don't you know?  You're racist just for questioning Johnson's accusation of Wilson! 

[Хahar 🤔]

It doesn't matter what our own political leanings are, we all must remember liberals are our betters.

[Хahar 🤔]

Ahhh geez.  Color me embarassed.  But come on....it was so important I mentioned it once...in a list.  How many times did I mention Korea?  Ahh, that's not important.  I mentioned Putin once so clearly the entire reason I'm against signing is Russia.  Excellent job as usual BRTD!

[Хahar 🤔]

If this happened before the Obama presidency and it consisted of protesters pretending to be killed in a war, you'd consider it to be brilliant.

[Хahar 🤔]

Also, at least I hold my views out of principle rather than out of actual real life circumstances like you do, Mr Handout.

Also, you've done it again. Congratulations. You're the most accomplished attention whore I've ever seen.

[Хahar 🤔]

I see Winston will be ignoring realisticidealist's post that totally owned him.

Already pointed out. Based on theory.

Means bugger all.

Given that no two events are ever the same - in economics or any other aspect of history - how can any argument not be based on some sort of theory? Do you honestly think your own beliefs are grounded solely in 'fact'?

He holds his views out of principle rather than out of actual real life circumstances.

[Хahar 🤔]

No no no, it's all Israel's fault that racist Muslims (note I didn't say or suggest all or even most Muslims were racists) kill Americans because we support Israel.  It makes perfect sense.  Just like it was England's fault when racist Germans killed Americans before we entered WWII because we supported England at the time.


GODWIN'd!

[Хahar 🤔]

Very true! Noted foreign policy experts Sarah Palin and Glenn Beck agree with you.

More like noted foreign policy experts like Charles Krautheimer, Robert Kagan and Mark Steyn, among others.

But it's always just those no-do-gooders Sarah Palin and Glen Beck who notice Obama's faults.  Or those who do are just racists.

[Хahar 🤔]

Yeah, citing Krauthammer is going of the deep end.

We must always support Obama and his policies lest we go off the deep end!

[Хahar 🤔]

The idea that Libertas cares about freedom is as absurd as saying that any of the Dixiecrats who filibustered the 1964 Act cared about freedom.  It's BS, designed to not make him appear to be the racist that he is.

Yeah, just like how anybody who doesn't support Israel is antisemitic.  Hurr

On a side note, Morgan's habit of saying "Hurr" and "Durr" is incredibly grating.

[Хahar 🤔]

On a side note, Morgan's habit of saying "Hurr" and "Durr" is incredibly grating.

I assume it is Morgan, and not I, that is getting the "credit" for this?

Yeah.

[Хahar 🤔]

Free speech only applies to my viewpoint!  I think all media should be government-controlled, so that only my viewpoint can be expressed on television!

[Хahar 🤔]

I'm sorry for coming up with such a ridiculous strawman.  The Democrats would come up with far more sensible things than what I proposed, such as giving teachers' unions more generous Viagra coverage and creating American jobs by teaching Chinese prostitutes to drink responsibly.  And yes, the Republicans, especially the squeezy liberal Mike Castle/Lisa Murkowski type, often come up with equally stupid things, which is part of the reason why I'm not a blue avatar.
