Sava: Okay, I just quit... quite frankly you wanna hear about how shitty my day has been? I had to sit outside infront of school, calling one taxi company that never showed up. I sat out for two hours. I didn't have any other numbers to call. I almost broke my back trying to get this heavy arm chair up to my room. I am not in a good mood for false rhetoric.

So when prominent Republicans like Armey and Schlaffly are criticizing Bush and Ashcroft, you think that's just made up?

This is the part where you provide support for this assertion. Otherwise, it's just a bald-faced assertion. You can't expect anyone to take you seriously when you knee-jerk disagree with something without providing evidence for why it is wrong.

Saying it's from a liberal source isn't refuting the content of the article.

Now stop Fezzing and start citing!

So you are claiming that the article is FACTUALLY incorrect simply because it disagree with your sensibilities?

Well Che, it appears as though your thread is getting Fezzed, so I will try to see what a real response will do.

No doubt many on the right have problems with many of the actions Bush has taken. Certainly detaining Padilla indefinitely without charging him is one of the worst examples. However, keep in mind that in previous wars we have seen far greater abuses of civil liberties. And so far it seems most of their worst actions have been taken against suspected terrorists-- after all you and your far-lefty peoples are still able to rant on these forums. The sad thing is support for these kinds of authoritarian action seem bipartisan, the Dems did vote for the PATRIOT act after all so I don't think withdrawing support for Bush would do anything. The main reason I still support Bush though is because I want to see a ban on partial birth abortion and have pro-life justices appointed to the supreme court. Also, I feel an agressive foreign policy is nessecary in dealing with the opponents- we have to crush threats before they come at us, we can't wait for disasters to strike.

I don't think defection against Bush will be serious. In the 2002 election Bush got very strong support and turnout from his conservative base.

Oh, and Fez, if you don't have anything add besides "that article is a load of crap", don't add anything at all.

Why the **** should I refute this source with another source? That makes my own belief system look weak, I shouldn't be required to post a source to disprove something that already is uncredible.

Are you on drugs?! that's hysterical! So your belief system will "look weak" by providing factual support for your arguments? What kind of zany alternate reality do you inhabit?

Fez, seriously--it's making empty assertions without supporting them that make your belief system look weak. It makes it look like you base your opinions on nothing but whims. If you made an effort to back up your position, people would think your opinions are actually based on reason and would therefore respect them more.

Everyone on poly already thinks your belief system is silly, so clearly your method of empty assertions isn't working. Maybe time to try a different tactic?

Actually, Fez, the opposite is true. You are required to provide evidence for your assertions in order to back them up. No one is required to accept anything you say, just because you say so. That is why you are BAM. All you do is assert. You do not provide evidence.

Damnit, Fez. If you want to argue something then argue it. They provided evidence, and you haven't. You done nothing but spam out a bunch of unsupported statements. Debating requires a back and forth, not just one side providing evidence and the other side saying, "That's a load of crap."
