BUZZZZZZZZZZZ Well this is your classic "straw man" fallacy that UG depends upon so well. Instead of arguing Spexx's point, he creates a straw man "Socialism" to argue against. It's only Socialism because he calls it that; what Obama has done is so far short of actual Socialism that it would be unrecognizable by that term in an *serious* discussion.

3) The Republicans are there to stop Obama from doing the Socialism the voters do not want.

This is a continuance of the straw man, but it is always helpful to remind everyone that only 2 short years ago the Republicans were spending like drunken investment bankers in a strip club where the strippers were wearing guaranteed notes for thongs.

True intellectualism requires true intellectual honesty. I will recognize it in you, UG, when I see it.
