Debating with a liberal is an exercise in talking with someone who doesn't bother to find out the facts of what they believe. Sadly, there's no current events test to vote.

and who has been attending these $30,000 a plate fundraisers for Obama? The poor?

Where did the trillion dollar stimulus go?

Who is funneling money into “green” corporations??

No, Democrats enslave the poor by giving them free stuff and promising them a future of free stuff, no work required. Republicans support getting the poor to support themselves by working.

I feel your pain. My otherwise intelligent sister says with upmost confidence “Republicans only care about rich people”. She has the whole narrative down pat. You’d think critical thinking skills would kick in but the rats make excuses that she buys into.

Liberals don’t care about or want to know facts.

It all depends on your definition of “help”. You can give a man a fish the way the Democrats do or you can teach a man to fish the way the Republicans do. If you give a man a fish, he will become dependent upon you, if you teach him to fish, he will become independent and never have to count upon you coming by all the time to feed him. As old as that is, it is more important today than it has ever been. Besides, it drives the communists crazy.

The statistics are wonderful when you take Obama’s speech about how it will take him more than 4 years to correct what was done wrong over “decades” — considering how many of those decades were controlled by democrats.

Democrats don’t care if everyone is in a soup line as long as they get to serve it.

At least your friend listens to you a bit. My sister and a couple of my friends who are de-fault libs won't hear it. Any of it. When it comes to politics their minds swim in 100% Kool-Aid. You would find more open mindedness in a meth-tweaked pit bull.

You planted some seeds. Don't crowd her too much and maybe they will sprout.

I always wonder what is this thing called “support” or “are for the poor”? What does it mean? In what way or ways? What’s the meat behind the statement?

If it’s redistribution, where does the money come from? I know, from rich people, and not only do they have enough, they don’t need any more, they don’t even need as much as they already have.

But the neurons to make this connection, sadly, are absent.

Sure they do. It’s just that Republicans support the poor with their own money, not everyone else’s.

I believe there are studies that show Republicans give much more to charity than Democrats.

Literally speaking your friend is correct. Democrats do indeed ‘support’ the poor with other peoples money. Democrats will always need poor people so they can have power, it is a religion to them.

>> In a debate with a friend who intends to vote for Obozo, I asked her:

I can think of only one reason why you would invest that kind of time...

You cannot debate idiocy.

I have had many “Bush Tax Cuts for the Rich” discussions with Libtards. The question I always ask is, “so, Tax Revenues fell because of the Bush Tax Rate Cuts?”.

Of course they ALWAYS answer in the affirmative. When I inform them that Federal Tax Revenues ROSE by 35% from 2003 (full implementation) to 2007 (when the Pelosi - Reid cabal took over), they refuse to believe it.

You cannot gain anything arguing with a DRONE. Facts mean nothing to them.

If you showed them a Video of Obama drowning Kittens, it would just give them an idea for a new hobby.

Very frustrating, isn’t it? Not a single factual argument can be made by an Obama / Democrat supporter to justify why they are voting the way they are. They are just cliche, circular arguments with no basis in reality or common sense. If the legislation is called the “Affordable Car Act” - then if you oppose it that means you are against the poor having healthcare. Whether or not the legislation would even be effective they don’t consider - it is how they “feel” about it.
