General Discussion
In reply to the discussion: The origin of a RW hack job that some lefties fall for.... [View all]Did you read what I wrote? I told the other poster that he/she had failed to prove a point because he/she was incapable of making an argument. I didn't talk about the substance of whether Hillary is an economic liberal or not. The entire point was to get the other poster to actually make an argument supported by evidence. He/she chose to spam the thread with unsourced lists of statements and actions that both supported and undermined his/her claim.
Would I make such a claim to a Republican? Maybe. It'd really depend on whether the evidence supported such a claim and whether that particular Republican was an idiot. I wouldn't bother with an idiot because that person can't find their butt with both hands anyway. That being said, who cares what a Republican thinks about Hillary's economic record anyway? Shit, most of them will tell you that Keynesian economic theory has failed and they hate it, but have no clue whatsoever that Bush tried one of the most Keynesian stimuli in our history with his tax cuts. Bearing that failure of knowledge in mind, I don't trouble myself with trying to educate people who can't be bothered to understand what they claim to believe.
