[[Your use of the "instant gratification" strawman, and now the "You're-the-same-as-the-leftists-because-both-of-you-don't-like-Bush" foolishness, are showing your lack of ability to form a cogent argument.]]

I know the truth hurts, but one only has to look at your responses to see the accuracy. Perhaps you might seek trying to achieve a cogent and lucid argument of your own before trying to level a critique. All you did was provide anecdotal and rhetorical defense of your position. A typical ploy, which is often used by the fringe left also, demonize the messenger when you can't offer up a substantive defense of your position. Perhaps an 'inquest' into your own thought process is called for, comprehension seems to be in short supply in your world of conservative elitism.

The anecdotes (i.e., isolated, selective data points about debt percentages) were all yours, pal. It was left to me to put them into a more continuous context. And talk of instant gratification is about as insipidly rhetorical as anyone could come up with.
