PDS Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 Is the point of this to show that Obama is a dreaded (but closeted) Moslim? If so, why not just come out and say it. If not, what is the actual point? Obama is making a hash of things straight up, sans consipiracy theories or hidden motives. He is doing so as a perfectly predictable Big Time Liberal, and is consistently doing the things he got elected to do. I don't see the need to gild the lilly when it comes to all the reasons he is not a good President. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francisco Ferrer Posted July 12, 2014 Share Posted July 12, 2014 PDS is correct. The case against a politician or a political candidate doesn't rest on what particular demographic group likes or dislikes him. The Guilt by Association fallacy is covered here. Ayn Rand discusses its use in her essay "'Extremism' or the Art of Smearing." Obama's opponents (of whom I am a proud member) should know better than to employ this tactic, given the fact that it has most often been used by the left. Consider the attempt last year to link the Tea Party and Nazis. Or this commercial from 1964: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you.To make sure that arguments advanced against the enemies of capitalism are strong, not weak.Have no position on dead horses other than to acknowledge they make good dog food.
