Other than that, is there a point of comparison here?

I can't remember the link, but at some point in the past it was posted things to look out for in Obama trolls. In the list it was mentioned that a troll will bring up the Chester Arthur case in an attempt to deflect away from Obama's lack of qualifications. That seems to me to be the case here. We need to keep the discussion on POINT which is OBAMA, not Chester Arthur.

Chester Arthur is DEAD, he is not the current President. Whatever he may have done over 100 years ago is now moot. What are we going to do? Resurrect the man, then try him, and remove him from office?? He's already removed - HE'S DEAD. As to any laws he signed, put in force etc. etc. again was over a hundred years ago, none of which, subverted our constitution in any way shape or form in contrast to what Obama has done in just 3 months.

I suggest not replying to posters who keep bringing up Chester Arthur as a means to drive the discussion away from Obama. Stay on point, which is OBAMA. Thanks.

Take note of a fact stated earlier in the thread. It doesn’t pay for people to operate and spread facts that don’t happen to be true.

The response was directly in response to that statement. And, as you and others well-know..., if you’re in the middle of a discussion with (let’s say) an opponent of the opposite political persuasion — and if you bring up a fact that is *not true* — that will derail your entire argument.

It does not pay to have inaccurate information being spread, if you’re going to “make a case”...

It’s as simple as that...
