					<description>Daniel,

YOU believe the American Military sancitons "rape rooms"?!!!!!




No they don't.  For example the soldiers involved in the Abu Graib Photo Abuses are all serving Prison Time.
* Specialist Graner is serving 10 YEARS in PRISON for abusing prisoners! 
http://www.cdi.org/news/law/abu-ghraib-graner.cfm 



*Specialist Harman is serving 6 YEARS IN PRISON for abusing prisoners! 
http://www.tiscali.co.uk/news/newswire.php/news/reuters/2005/05/18/world/ussoldierapologizesforherabughraibabuses.html 




*Private First Class England is serving 3 YEARS IN PRISON for abusing prisoners! 
http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/9492624/ 




*Staff Sergeant Frederick is serving 8 YEARS IN PRISON for abusing prisoners!
http://www.cdi.org/news/law/abu-ghra...-frederick.cfm 



Did you know all those photos were taken in one night during a Night Shift?
The Mudville Gazette did a factually based analysis of the Abu Graib scandal:

Why do you beat your wife you un-American son-of-bitch?</description>

					<description>"Well, the first step is admitting your problem. Good job, endo, now you can proceed to step 2, recognizing you need help."

Very funny. Then I guess it's true that Republicans can't tell the difference between political dissent and violent terrorism. And are you saying that 66% of Americans are Democrats? Sounds promising for the next election...

Friendly advice - if you're going to recommend locking up a whole section of the population, stick to the old Republican guideline: make sure it's a minority.</description>

					<description>Now - you are simply lying.  And incoherently to.  I had no supposition.  Only a semi-loaded question.  Oh well.  Live with yourself.</description>

					<description>Daniel, do you not even realize I was using the loaded question &lt;i&gt;as the strawman&lt;/i&gt; argument?  I replaced your retarded supposition with another, similarly retarded position.  Now you've run off trying to flex your googling muscle and all the while I'm wondering that since you didn't respond to my question, we must assume you're currently engaged in beating your wife.

See how fun that is?</description>

					<description>Huff, huff, puff, puff. I'm not the one who confused a "strawman argument" for "the loaded question fallacy."  

And - yes - responding to my thinking about upward mobility by citing a single example presupposed that I think upward mobility is impossible.  It attributes to me a position I simply do not hold - and one which is, of course, easily refutable - and knocks that argument down - all the while ignoring my real argument (that the odds against upward mobility are so long as to be irrelevant to the issue of what constitutes reasonable taxation) No, Tex - you still haven't confronted THAT argument - but only the strawman argument you substituted in its place.  CLASSIC STRAWMAN rhetorical maneuvering (http://www.fallacyfiles.org/strawman.html).  

Worked up over nothing?  Perhaps.  But even while many on the left subscribe to wishy washy epistemological relativism, I never knew someone who practiced it so well without even knowing it.  Is it a strawman?  Is it a loaded question?  Is it a chicken?  Is it a duck?  Duh?!?  Don't know.  Guess it don't matter.</description>

					<description>It's kinda fun to watch you get all worked up over nothing.  It reminds me of my dog that suddenly notices his tail, then chases it for hours.

As to your "question" - no, I do not condone rape rooms.  Does that satisfy your tail wagging?

As for your claim that I set up a strawman on the upward mobility issue, it's obvious you don't understand the concept of strawman.  I said that it was possible for people to go from nothing to wealthy and successful, and used my own example as just one bit of proof... I realize this is probably what makes you envious enough of my law degree to constantly try and put it down.  Hey, work hard and someday you might be successful.  Until then, just stay addicted to my successful blog and keep coming back for more treats.

Sit.  Roll over.  Good boy.</description>
