Re: Comparison

Thanks for the decidedly-unSocratic response to my post. More reassurance that I'm up against a lightweight. Please read some Socrates before you throw that term around.

You're asking to be spoon-fed answers to questions you've clearly spent no time researching. Do I really need to show you how to look up a legislative record? Do I really have to explain to you what a committee is? Socrates would have laughed in your face at your challenge to spoon-feed you the answers.

My point from the beginning was never to stump for Obama, but rather to point out the flaws in a poorly-thought out list--err, I mean argument. I've done the same against so-called "Obamabots," and I will continue to do so until my dying day. Ignorance is a contagion.

And for the record, when you hammer me on "getting specific," you undermine your credibility with phrases like "she's done it," "she fought to stop them," "who is more common-man" (although I did have a good laugh at that one, read: Cindy McCain), "[obama is] pro-Saddam," "dozens of examples" (none cited), "I've seen none of that" (head in the sand?), and the completely non-sensical "He knows what private property else in the state/nation should be allowed to have?".

It truly is a delight watching someone offer arguments that completely dismantle his/her own. You do all my work for me! (Sorry I can't offer you the same treatment.)
