16. Someone doesn't know what the word "fallacy" means

The day the Democrats took over was not January 22nd 2009, it was actually January 3rd 2007, the day the Democrats took over the House of Representatives and the Senate, at the very start of the 110th Congress.

The Democratic Party controlled a majority in both chambers for the first time since the end of the 103rd Congress in 1995.


and the Republicans were helpless -- HELPLESS -- to stop this Reign of Terror! They eliminated habeus corpus, instituted routine spying on all citizens, tortured prisoners, rewrote history....

oh wait, that all happened before the Democrats got nominal control of Congress. Under Republicans, to be specific.


For those who are listening to the liberals propagating the fallacy that everything is "Bush's Fault", think about this...

...good for you. You're able to tell when someone is using the word "fallacy" incorrectly.

(Republican fallacy deleted)

"The problems we face today exist because the people who work for a living are outnumbered by those who vote for a living."

Speaking of fallacies, the hit-correspondent provides no data to back up THIS assertion. Conservatives have this fantasy that there is an army of layabouts and do-nothings living it up on Welfare and entitlements. They never back that up, and they never mention that they're lumping YOU into that imaginary mob. Do you work for a living?

You know who doesn't work for a living? The people who paid for these takling Republican points.
