As our local news failed to report today: While 1,000 students at UT protested the war...49,000 did NOT.

Your assumption being that all 49,000 must support going to war. With us or against us, right? It's that easy. Well, by that logic we should vacate every elected office, since a majority of registered voters regularly fail to show up at the polls.

I'd say that was your inference, not the poster's assumption. How do you know what he or she assumed?

Need I mention that I can find all too many similar leaps of logic on leftie sites?

The other inference which could be made from this comment is that the other 49,000 don't care about the agenda that interested the 1,000.

You boys always overestimate the extent of your support.
