Dont you think there is equal hypocrisy on the right?

Those who were all gung-ho to invade Iraq at the cost of $billions and thousands of US lives are so reticent to support a much less costly and much more limited action in Libya.

But then again, in a recent Gallup Poll, more Republicans support Obama's actions in Libya (57 approve - 31 disapprove) than Democrats (51-34)

Polls are the weakest form of statistical significance. You should know that already...

I'm not interested in debating the value of polls as one measure of public opinion, albeit less than perfect, but still a measure that conveys a picture at a point in time.

But you ignored the question.

Any person who is schooled in the examination of statistics would quickly ignore the individual who tried to hold up a poll as some form of statistical significance in an attempt to strengthen their argument. I do respect your continual attempts to sway public opinion but you shall never pass the scientific examination of the continually failed arguments. But yet you quote them as some form of valid point. And in this post you acknowledge that you are posting but yet another Straw Man attempt to advance the failed point based on a poll. Reflux you are a Goddam Fool.....

But yet you quote them as if they have some validity. And they do not.

I now do understand why Lamplighter gave up trying to engage you in a rational discussion and left this place.

The tag line for Current Events is "Help understand the world by talking about things happening in it"

IMO, your dislike for Obama is so over the top, it affects you posts, often with misinformation, exaggerations and just an unwillingness to accept that other opinions may be equally valid as yours.

But have a nice night.

Who gives a fuck about a Quitter? I don't. He is a pussy if he bailed. I have no respect for Quitters.

So you want to suck up to Obama and the Demoncratic position. Who gives a shit what you think. I accept all opinions that are reasonable and well thought out. Reflux just is not one of them.

But have a nice night.

Oh I will, and you can be assured that Obama will be a One Term President.

So how many Chapters have you managed to read in Thomas Barnett's book?
