Greg_W Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Gee, Americans like it!! Now all you liberals don't clamor at once to somehow discredit this poll with your normal bullshit. I don't think the system could handle it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Come on, Tomcat ... for someone who claims to be stepping to the plate with plenty of mental muscle, you should know better than to trust a statistic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr_Flash_Amazing Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 DFA's way of thinking is that survey-dependent statistics can vary wildly depending on way too many factors. Did they take the survey at the Pentagon? In the midwest? How many people did it involve? Come on, man, this doesn't have to do with party-line shit, it's just basic logic.

tomcat Posted March 21, 2003 Author Share Posted March 21, 2003 Your logic is flawed .. severely. If you want to debate, go bring me one of my arguments and we can debate. I'm not sure where you're going with your surveys bud, but real logic (which goes beyond what you learned in your statistics class) transcends your utopian world and transports you into reality. Get back with me when you have this down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Necronomicon Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Americans are sheep. The wolves have told the sheep what to think. So why ask a sheep what they think when you should be talking to the wolves? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah you're right guys .. the 50+ Iraqis I saw tearing up a life size poster of Saddam Hussein with a boxcutter yesterday must have been faked -- propaganda, faulty journalism. It's funny how many Iraqi soldiers and citizens aren't protesting the war, yet our own citizens are. Enjoy your freedoms .. you paid a lot for them.

chucK Posted March 21, 2003 Share Posted March 21, 2003 Tomcat, I'm curious why you quoted my post? Did you think I was supporting DFA or condemning the poll? I was answering DFA's questions. I think a scientic poll (like was done here) of 500+ randomly sampled people is a pretty valid poll. I have no reason to believe these results are innaccurate. C'mon Tomcat! Debunk me!!!

Now how would I get out of this little predicament? Talk trash? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'mon Tomcat! Debunk me!!! No I agree with your analysis of the poll with few participants, but I think the majority opinion is similar. I am sorry to have made an example of your post.

You're pretty good with rhetoric, I gotta admit, but I have yet to see an intelligent comment out of you. Keep trying chief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What do you want me to call you guys who think opposite of me? You guys don't like being pigeonholed as 'Democrats', so I picked a more general term. Oh, do you guys favor 'progressives' now? That's a totally false moniker, since the Left has no interest in being progressive about personal liberty and freedom, only usurpation of power and denial of rights and self-determination.
