How much that distinction matters to you is your own personal evaluation

Same. Two years ago I thought Trump had zero chance. But now, with Biden getting 100% of the blame for everything from groceries to electric bills and the war in Palestine, I'm expecting enough D voters to stay home and not vote. If that happens, the orange chimp coasts to victory.And yet as we get closer to the election, I'm believing more and more that Trump will win.
What peoplethe fact that he/they would post something (anything, really) that they didn’t produce themselves is…not surprising but still a “what the **** are you doing” moment
also, people defending him on here is certainly something. Trump has done nothing but worsen and splinter the country in the last 8 years. Biden isn’t great but Trump is actively horrible
Come on man. I know you understand what a good source is. From the first line of what the Cato Institute describes itself as being it makes it plain as day that there is a strong bias towards a certain way of approaching things. Add in that the Koch brothers helped found and back it and you have something even a freshman in college wouldn’t use as a source.
Is this where I say I’m rubber and you’re glue? Because you’re using the same terrible arguing you dismissed me for.Come on man. I know you understand what a good source is.

You need the logic book much more than you need the prices book.

I would just expect more from a great legal mind that has argued in front of the PA Supreme Court on more than one occasion, than to throw out a biased Think Tank piece and act like we should learn something from it.If any of you are wondering if I do this in real life, I've cited Logic for Lawyers : A Guide to Clear Legal Thinking by the late Hon. Ruggero J. Aldisert in more than half a dozen cases, and there have been several cases where I filed briefs where I set out categorical syllogisms to show the argument. Or, in one case, used a categorical syllogism to show that the plaintiff's argument suffered from the formal fallacy of the undistributed middle. Won that case.
I suggest touching grass every so often. It’s nice.
Oh… don’t you worry your sweet little heart. I had no plans of responding to any merits (or lack thereof) of what you’re saying.I suggest touching grass every so often. It’s nice.
Telling someone to "touch grass" is also a fallacy in that it does not respond to the merits of what someone is saying.
