HOW TO DEBATE LIBERALS: A GUIDE FOR TODAY'S REPUBLICAN.
WHEN THEY SAY:
George W. Bush inherited a record budget surplus from Bill Clinton, and he turned it into a record deficit.

YOU REPLY:
Your buddy Saddam would like us to believe that, wouldn't he?


WHEN THEY SAY:
Bush got re-elected with the lowest margin of victory of any sitting president since Woodrow Wilson in 1916.

YOU SAY:
Why do you hate America so much?


WHEN THEY SAY:
There was a 60% voter turnout in 2004, of which Bush got 51%. That means only 30% of the eligible voters cast a ballot for Bush in 2004. That's hardly a mandate.

YOU REPLY:
Terrorist-lover!


WHEN THEY SAY:
The entire world hates Bush and wanted him out of office.

YOU REPLY:
Well, if you believe what they say in the liberal media....


WHEN THEY SAY:
The lion's share of Bush's tax cuts go to the richest 1% of Americans.

YOU REPLY:
And you gave Bin Laden a blowjob last night, didn't you, faggot?


WHEN THEY SAY:
1,100 of our soldiers have died in Iraq, thousands more have been maimed or wounded, and tens of thousands of Iraqis have been killed; and for what? There are no WMDs in Iraq!

YOU REPLY:
Who told you that? Dan Rather?


Feel free to add to this guide! It can only help our friends on the right. ;)

1. If those arguments work then it's not funny.
Is it?

2. I doubt that more than one of those responses
would pass without a serious fracass on my part.

3. Sad thing - that's not a joke...
That's how the BushTrueBelievers reply when discussing politics. The rest of the world isn't real to them. It seems it's all a big game of one-upmanship and they take the attitude that there's nothing wrong and everyone gets to go home afterwards with no changes.

5. Thought of another one....

WHEN THEY SAY:
For months, the U.S. intelligence community warned Bush that a terrorist strike would occur on our shores. Hell, the Presidential Daily Briefing of August 6, 2001 was called, "Bin Laden Determined To Attack in the United States!" Bush was asleep at the wheel, and 3,000 people died because of his incompetence.

YOU SAY:
Ooo! Look at Mr. Intellectual. He has facts and figures. I'm so-o-o impressed!
