Oh dear yet another left winger (or more then likely the same left winger) again posting such silliness. Let us unpack your statements in the usual fashion shall we ;)

“yes its amazing how guys like Jeff can defend an administration thats been an utterly complete and dismal failure and still deny anything is wrong.”

How threatening my rebuttals must be to your left wing group think mentality. While I do support a majority of this administrations policy goals along with the majority of the mechanics to obtain said policy goals if you had bothered to read my statements in those post you would have noticed that was not my primary focus. Contrary to your attempt to “change the subject” more then likely due to the fact that you are finding it hard to defend your positions from the criticism I have levied against them I have not “defended” any one. Rather I have pointed out the logical inconsistencies of the paltry arguments couched by left wingers upon this forum.

If I where to illustrate my support for the policies the current administration has initiated (again I do support most of them) such support would be submitted in a fashion similar to how I couched my rebuttals, resting firmly upon a solid foundation of raw data, academic training and tacit knowledge. One can readily observe examples of this approach by reading the rebuttal I posted regarding one misguided left wingers misconception regarding the major contributing factors that determine the price of gas. During said rebuttal I posted the exact formula which illustrates how much a price of gas is at the pump along with raw data and links to substantiate said rebuttal. The sad thing is that most left wingers (tragically most of my fellow Americans as well) do not take the time out to do objective research regarding the issue they claim to care so much about. I find such a trend extremely distressing.


“Hmmm It must be the rest of America thats wrong, the 81% that think America is heading in the wrong direction (last quoted at what??? 81%) and think that this president is the worst in this nations history. Not this guy though.”

Again your argument is nothing other then appeal to the majority. Just because the majority considers something to be correct does not in fact mean that such a position accurately reflects what ever subject the majority takers said position on. That said let us focus upon the accuracy of your 81 % “statistic”. I am guessing that said estimate is based on a poll? I am wondering if you even took the time to read beyond the “headline” to delve into the method of how said poll was done. Did you notice there standard error? What was the confidence interval? Aside from goggling or resorting to Wikipedia do you even know what those terms mean or how they apply to say statistics? I am guessing no. Try looking those up.

Jeff
