Oh, i'm extremely logical. I do electronic engineering and computer programing. If my logic doesn't work, neither does my projects.
And just because your fellow FReepers disagree with your beliefs doesnt mean they are trolls, closet liberals, or agents of Obama.
And this is the part that I find hard to understand. I take it for granted that it is true, because I see so many people who are arguing on behalf of Obama's legitimacy that in commentary on other issues display a solid conservative position. Why they chose to defend him is simply bizarre to me.
If you and the rest of the birthers had been right, Im sure that pretty much everyone youve come into conflict with here would have supported you wholeheartedly.
Not at all. People had been taught wrong for so many years, that they simply can't conceive of it being any other way. People simply overlook the fact that their definition is silly and serves no purpose, allowing such absurdities as "Anchor Babies", non-citizen Indians, Non-Citizen slaves, and Ignoring thousands of British Loyalists born after the Revolution yet considered British Subjects by both the Americans and the British.
"Taking something for granted" means assuming it.
Your assumption is wrong.
And your understanding of the entire situation is wrong.
I can't recall having seen a single person here defend Obama.
I have seen people defend the truth.
I have seen people defend the Constitution.
I have seen people defend the law.
And I have seen people defend reality.
If you don't defend the truth, the Constitution, and the law, even when you may not particularly like what they say, and even when you may not particularly like their implications, then you are not defending the truth, the Constitution, and the law at all.
You are only defending what you would like those things to be.
