LOL, in case you didn’t realize, a straw man is when you selectively pick or invent an easy argument to knock down, thus ignoring the more substantive points of your foe.

Congratulations. Perhaps we can go through more examples of fallacious reasoning, once you’ve had some rest.

Why? you have been using ‘fallacious reasoning’ since we began. Perhaps once you’ve had some rest we can delve into your abuse of category error. Because I gotta say, I have rarely seen arguments defined as incorrectly as you have while expecting a solution.

You think that a vastly altered and applied foreign policy is the same as it ever was. You think that a group of incompetents in the Dems and GOP alike are executing the same policy. You think that sending food to one side of a military conflict can’t or won’t result in a hostile reaction by the other.

It’s all there in your posts. It’s your words. All of this crap is provably false with even a cursory skim through FR and an even less cursory cruise through the common sense most of us have. And when pointed out, you holler ‘strawman!’.

Nope. Again, as I said, people are free to read our posts and our points, then decide which of us belongs on the Alex Jones website. You can invoke Reagan till Obama’s white half checks it’s privilege for all I care. Wrong is wrong. Reagan wasn’t. the founders who warned us against foreign entanglements exactly like this were not wrong. You are.

You think you know better than the founders? good luck selling anyone on that one as well.

Not my problem.
