Why I find it difficult to argue with Republicans about Obama the Tyrant

[rpannier]

No matter how bizarre their conspiracy theory is I find it difficult to argue with them.
1. Obama will start quartering troops in homes. (Ted Cruz. Insane-Texas)
2. Obama is helping Al Qaeda - Bachman (Lunatic-Minnesota)
3. Obama is creating internment camps for reeducation (That lunatic Author from India and Jonah Goldberg <How I wish the whale would eat that Jonah&gt
4. Obama wants to take away all our guns. (LaPierre, Ted nugent and every other gin nut crazy)
5-1000000000000000000. The list is endless

Why do I find it difficult? Because no matter how often they're wrong they fall back on these two things:
"The only reason it didn't happen was because we were on to him so he couldn't do it. But he really wanted to."
or
"He's still going to do it. He's just waiting for the right time."

I read somewhere that there are people who believe that there are UN soldiers hiding in the sewer systems waiting for the go to take over.
Yes, cuz hiding in the sewers of metropolitan areas is so necessary and so useful. As opposed to buildings or storage sites, etc.

2. You forgot to mention: Obama is purging the military to replace generals who

won't launch nukes at red states, Obama denied death gratuities to fallen soldiers' families, Obama will cull the old and sick with his death panels, and Obama is actually a member of the Muslim Brotherhood.

15. He pals around with terrorists. he's a black man from Kenya, Africa,

5. Makes no sense to argue/debate with unreasonable people.

I mean whether they present themselves as Dems, Reps, or disciples of Koot Hoomuny.

It's much better to engage with people who can teach knowledge, or others who don't profess to teach but who are, like you, seeking knowledge.

6. You can't argue with conspiracy theory.

Really, you can't. It's a fruitless effort. This is because conspiracy theory pretty much boils down to one solitary, single statement about reality:

"The absence of evidence is, itself, evidence"

8. Never try to teach pigs to sing...

It wastes your time
and annoys the pig.

16. That's the gist of it

It's so well hidden and so insidious that only a select few know about his real plans and were it not for Glen Beck, or Sean Hannity of the guy from the bathroom at the Gulp and Blow knowing about it and telling us we'd all be doomed. That you don't know is just proof at how brilliant the plan was.

7. Obama is a successful black man

that's their biggest fear

9. Stop arguing with Pubs, it is a total waste of time.

Best advice is just ignore them, let live their fantasy and let them suffer the consequences of their decisions.

I am too the point now where I really don't give a flying fuck about the Pubs and the TeaHadists and really don't give a shit what happens to them.

They want to live in places without regulations and a industrial facility blows up, oh fucking well, tough shit, if your town was destroyed that is now your problem now, YOU need to be responsible for YOUR stupid decisions.


Not a single Pub, TeaHadist or those that vote for them are any thing close to a human being, fuck em fuck em all!

10. If they can't win, they usually resort to personal attacks.

11. When somebody says something like that to you, they do you a favor.

"Don't waste your life talking to me, I'm too fucking stupid to understand anything you might say!"

13. 'The best revenge is living well.'

By that I don't mean being rich, but rich in spirit and working for the future for all of us. A fine example was the open house at the school the voters in my neighborhood approved paying a levy for a couple of years ago.

Yes, we voted to raise taxes!

It was just yesterday. It is a high school, much bigger and lighter with a lot of glass and landscaping the previous one did not have. In attendance were staff, teachers, parents, alumni and many young parents with toddlers or babies in their arms, looking at the school their children will one day attend.

You know, a public school that educates the children for the future, promotes diversity and cares about the children and follows the laws.

This is what the GOP fears. Success.

14. Here's a great article linking the John Birch mentality to current RW Obama hatred.

Reading through the literature on the hysterias of 1963, the continuity of beliefs is plain: Now, as then, there is said to be a conspiracy in the highest places to end American Constitutional rule and replace it with a Marxist dictatorship, evidenced by a plan in which your family doctor will be replaced by a federal bureaucrat—mostly for unnamable purposes, but somehow involving the gleeful killing off of the aged. There is also the conviction, in both eras, that only a handful of Congressmen and polemicists (then mostly in newspapers; now on TV) stand between honest Americans and the apocalypse, and that the man presiding over that plan is not just a dupe but personally depraved, an active collaborator with our enemies, a secret something or other, and any necessary means to bring about the end of his reign are justified and appropriate. And fifty years ago, as today, groups with these beliefs, far from being banished to the fringe of political life, were closely entangled and intertwined with Senators and Congressmen and right-wing multi-millionaires.

17. You can't argue with a Republican

They make utterly ridiculous statement with no proof and their followers are brainwashed Zombies. They uses a different logic set in which 2 + 2 = 3874.
