More Nic theories not based in reality.

I wish.... but the reality is that you often stick your nose in others' arguments.

Just like I did here. Stick Out Tongue

There's always PM if you would like to have a private conversation. Pointing out how you are wrong isn't sticking one's nose in; it is correcting inaccuracies.

It might be if you were adding facts instead of just your opinion about whether others are right or wrong.

There's nothing but your opinion here:

Great counter to someone who has nothing constructive to contribute and has to resort to childish personal attacks!! High Five

Quote from thikthird

since when does the american way let one's own petty world views stand in the way of hoping for a better future for their children?

I already said don't send your kids to Princeton. That increases hope for a better future for them because Princeton turns out morons like Bernanke and Krugman.

And yet you've still presented nothing wrt your qualifications that lend any credibility to your judgement that these highly accomplished people are "morons."

You got anything? Where'd you get your PhD?

When someone attacks another person's kids, they have nothing to contribute and their personal attack is childish. Especially since the poster in question hadn't contributed prior to that post except to try and sell a men's beard product. This all leads me to conclude they have nothing to contribute.

Paul vs. Paul

Ron Paul vs. Paul Krugman on Bloomberg today.
http://www.bloomberg.com/video/91689761/

Quote :

Krugman: Ron Paul wants to take us back 100 years or so.

Ron Paul: Krugman wants to take us back 1000 years or so.

Quote :

Paul Krugman: “I’ve been pretty harsh on Ben Bernanke, but fraud is not one of the things I would charge him with.”

Ron Paul: “Yeah you want him to print more money FASTER!”

Krugman (with smug look on his face): “Well of course I do!”

Quote :

Paul Krugman is an absolute idiot. Almost everything he said was a lie or an untruth. Try and use gold or silver to buy something you crook and see what happens. Why are those on the Left pro-choice on nothing but abortion???

This guy is the Left's go to economic man??? LMFAO

Quote :

It's so stark a contrast, isn't it? One guy saying the earth rotates around the sun, the other saying it's held up by turtles.

LMAO. It's a term regularly used by v-neck sporting, 76 year old politicians. Kids these days ain't got jack on the real OS hipsters and their pioneering acronyms. Big Grin

But worry not, 124nic will still say it's a language fallacy. Roll Eyes (Sarcastic)

And that's far from a coincidence....

Quote from thikthird

yes, since low effort thinking promotes conservatism.

Ah yes, the fallacy of liberal "tolerance"

Remember the old saying "if by 20 you aren't liberal, you don't have a heart, but if by 40 you aren't conservative, you don't have a head"

Quote from Imerson

I don't think experience really matters for a president. My point is that you can't really use his own words from 4 years ago against him.

You think suggesting intellectuals favor liberalism for good reason is "intolerance"? Confused

Why would I remember a stupid "saying" like that?
