Beware of the strawman

The Dope of Dopes is hosting a confab on Thursday this week to talk about "his" Dope-a-care plan. Yeah Dope-a-care, once thought to be dead and buried under mountains of distrust and disapproval of the American people after the election of Scott Brown, has been dug up. Not even an army of Hollywood's best make up artists and an ocean of cheap perfume can hide its worm eaten bloated corpse or cover the stench. But it is being rolled out again on Thursday as if it were a brand new idea.

Following the old political adage that if only 47% of Americans want you to start over and another 27% want you to do nothing, leaving you only 26% that support your position, it is a clear sign to move forward with a plan to nationalize 1/6th of the economy. So Dope-a-care - the Freddy Kruger of the Dope's first year in office - has been invited to make a sequel. After all why waste just one year trying cram a bad idea down the throat of Americans when you can waste two? It's not as if we had double digit unemployment or two wars to fight or anything else more important to do.

The Republicans had better bring their a-game through. If they don't, the Dope and his MSM lackeys will use them as window dressing and a sign of approval from the other side. Most of all they had better be aware of Arugalus Maximus Dopulus's tendency to argue against his own stupid strawman arguments. Example:

"Republicans have offered no ideas of their own (lie), so that makes all of my bad ideas the best ideas on the table." Republican have offered scores of ideas, yet the Dope and his Dope minions insist on saying that they have no plan.

"The American people want us to get something done." Actually, Sir Dopes a Lot, they do not. A huge majority of Americans prefer a new plan or no plan at all.

"We have to do something right away or we'll destroy the American economy." BS! You are doing a fine job of that right now without compounding the problem with another federal entitlement and $1.6 trillion in additional debt. Besides if something has to be done right now, why does it take three years to implement your asinine plan?

It just goes on and on with this jug eared fool. Someone on the Republican side has to be ready to stand up and say, "That's not true." Has the good Joe Wilson been invited?
