I still think we'd be better off with a good lawyer as Attorney General.
And a really good lawyer writes out the best legal strategy for you to be able to do what you want to/need to do.

An internet-geocities-conspiracy nut lawyer looks at cnn releases on Iraq, and then gives you a bogus "legal" opinion of the situation.

fine, have it your way.

It's not based on the fact we can or cannot disprove your argument. It's the fact that most of your arguments are unconventional and don't take the path of least resistance if you catch my drift.

It's one thing to disprove someone's argument with facts which happens on occasion in Teh Politics forum. It's another thing to present a somewhat believable argument to the discussion and I believe you’ve failed to do this on numerous occasions. I like to think of your reasoning in the same respect as being dealt a royal flush... sure it's possible but how many times have you seen it happen?

First off, I have no idea what this means. (But trying to figure it out is a fun mental challenge!)

Second, psoper's point is valid. You try to discredit him because it is an unlikely occurence, but that is a fallacious form of reasoning.

And Guru, you are obviously a smart man. However, wading through your pompousness makes my feet hurt

How can this be true when you managed to explain it's meaning one sentence later?

"To present a somewhat believable argument to the discussion".... ???

what is that? I didnt explain anything cause I dont know what you are trying to say. I guess I might be able to break this down more effectively if I say it out loud in a Don King voice

:says it out loud as Don King but is still confused:
