For some reason this makes me think of the old quote "if you owe the bank 10 dollars they own you, if you owe the bank 10 million you own the bank"

I can't cop to anyhting that I don't know very much about. I know it was just a typo. Just my smart ass way of pointing it out.

When did you change your tune? It seems odd for you to say that Obamas birth certificate, and his teleprompter are topics with substance.

He was speaking SATIRICALLY and if you were unable to realize that it brings your intelligence into question. If you pay attention he used the same style and phrasing as the original poster to make the sarcastic point about murder and theivery.

The poor supreme court just had to give the responsibility of electing our leaders to corporate america. Because they sadly realized the public was no longer fit to vote.

Dude first off I want you to know I am not picking on you. It's just that I have seen your line of thinking a few too many times this week. My question is do you really think that people are so dumb that such a simple and illogical concept as the one you posted is too advanced a thought for...

Really

I guess this thread is as good as any other to point out that when you note a fallacy it is not necessary, when no longer doing so for a professor, to classify the fallacy. In fact all that does is make you look like an ass kissing student. A simple "that is not a good argument" or "maybe...

Thats interesting. I do things the exact reverse. If there is a problem big enough that I get involved, I only focus on fixing the problem. I leave it to the managers to figure out if an individual is the cause, and how to deal with them. If the same problem shows up, i'd like to say...

Mostly good answers I guess. We expect a little bickering here right. I'm not proud of it but the reason I posted was because I saw a clip that day of President Obama speaking and he actually used the words "inherited from the previous administration". For some reason at the time it...

Man, if he can call a sit down with beer meeting over a little issue with a local cop and a teacher, I do not think it is unreasonable to expect SOMETHING for this attempted "bombing" by a terrorist wannabe.

Correlation or causation, the education/earning stats are not proven to have anything other than a correlation to education. It is likely that people who are willing to call it quits at 9th grade are willing to settle for less money. The key being they are settling for, not incapable of...

Huh? Even with the translation... Huh?

I heard the broadcast on npr when they "unveiled" their list. Even the guy from politifact was embarassed. The poor NPR man could barely hide his thoughts about the list. There was absolutely no conviction in the mans voice when he announced the "lie of the year"

I trend republican, and even I can tell this healthcare bill is a win win win for the republicans. The bill itself is nothing more than a glorified seatbelt law. (well supposedly) Everyone must buy insurance, or be fined. The additional fees and taxes will more than cover the small % of...

I think there is a good chance that Amex and the other CC co are looking to get people in debt trouble. I have to imagine that they do not want to destroy their customers though. Probably just get their hooks into them and keep them forever paying, just below ruin. However, like the gun...

I have to respectfully disagree. I know several men and women with more than enough intelligence and will power to become engineers or scientist. They never even considered it. Now I do not know why they didn't consider it. But to say there is a lack of them because of the difficulty would...

Your too kind. No really don't be so nice I am not used to it. For the record I assumed that there was some sort of proof that the kidnappings occured. To return your politness, you very well may be right. When two people hate each other they will do some crazy things.

Your argument while possibly correct, is not valid. The statement I made was in regards to people reactions. If the crime was commited or not doesnt change anything I said.

Sameeh, yes I would want to know who commited the crime. But I would want to know exactly who, as in the persons name and location. Not just what country they come from so I could paint an entire nationality as an evil group of people. If this story is true, the men who did it are evil...
