Need some quick help refuting a rethugian
Him: "Explain and figure 15,000 new IRS agents, 32 new czars (along with their supportive staff), 159 NEW offices, agencies and programs created under Obamacare, and the list could go on, but I'm tired of typing."
According to Wiki, the 32 new czars is right. His spiel is that govt. spending is through the roof under Obama.
Help.
Thx.

I thought spending was good, at least that was the argument last week.

4. Oh please, those numbers are not accurate.
Besides if their were that many new IRS agents it would be to retrieve the American peoples stolen money handed out in the masses under G.W.
So let me get this straight, by not taxing people at a higher rate that is somehow theft?
So if you don't donate your $5 every time the grovel bot pops up, are you stealing $5 from $kimmer?
Another example, if your pot dealer lowers his prices are you now stealing from him?
And how in the hell is a tax cut a handout? The govt is not giving the rich any money when taxes are cut, they are simply not taking as much from them. You idiots act like the govt is taking money from the treasury and bestowing it upon the rich, when the reverse is true, the govt is taking money from the rich and us not so rich taxpayers and handing it over to you. That is a handout.

Right now, we're having a 2 month long running "feud" on Facebook about globull warming.

I put the probability of DUmmy DUppers being a mole at around 80%. But whether he's a mole or a moonbat,
the proper term is "rethuglican". There is no "rethugian".
It reminds me of nutcase nadin a couple of days ago mentioning a meltdown at "Fiuki".

When the answer you get from teh google, isn't what you want,
run to teh wikki.
Goonads stand by for teh sources of expert expertise.

And yet again another member of the group who proclaims themselves the smartest people in the world has to run to DU in order to respond to a Republican. It's really sad and does not support DU's claim of vast intelligence.
For you lurking DUers out there this is exactly why you need to accept me as your candidate. If elected I will start each and every day by providing talking points to answer the facts and figures presented by conservatives so you no longer have to look like an idiot by uselessly rushing to DU for an answer. Naturally the talking points that I will provide will NOT refute the facts and figures because...well...they are FACTS and figures, but that doesn't matter because the Jackass Party has no use for facts and figures. What does matter is that the talking points I'll provide to you will sound interesting.
An example:
Question: "Explain and figure 15,000 new IRS agents, 32 new czars (along with their supportive staff), 159 NEW offices, agencies and programs created under Obamacare, and the list could go on, but I'm tired of typing."
Answer: It's quite simple really. The quantification of the duality of the governmental shift is designed to curtail the vacuum effect of the employment quotient and therefore will provide release. Only a simpleton would not recognize this. As for your being tired of typing, thankfully the keeper of the unicorns works tirelessly in an attempt to suppress the distress that has been brought about by the previous shrubbery in the oval office.
Now you have the answer to provide to your friend the rethugian. Granted, the answer doesn't make sense, but that's the wonderful thing about the Jackass Party. The Jackass Party actually prefers things that do not make sense.
No need to thank me. Just give me your vote.

Yeah, it is odd that all the smartest people in the room always have to run off to ask how to refute something some "dumb" righty said. :panic:

That's why you rarely see them here.
They never get banned, they just tuck their tails, and run.

Just google "15,000 new IRS agents", DUmmy Duppers. That's all the research you and your fellow DUmmies need.

^5, Flippy. You reminded me of my college days.

Thanks dd.
I actually didn't get to do much BSing in college. The professors were sort of hard-asses. Not much sense of humor. My senior year in high school though was different. I had two constants. The first was that every test that the Medical Biology teacher gave would be an essay test. The second was that every test the Western Civilization teacher gave would be an easy multiple choice exam. Both teachers never used a book to teach. They just started and finished the class at the chalkboard talking and writing. Given the natures of the tests I took notes and paid close attention in Medical Biology while I enjoyed life in Western Civilization. The day before any test in Western Civ I'd borrow some girls notes, photo-copy them in the library, and glance over them the night before a test. This all served me well until one day when it seemed as if the Western Civ teacher had taken some lessons from the Medical Biology teacher. I sat down in Western Civ class to take my nice and easy multiple choice exam and was instead given a test that read: please give a short essay in answer to each the questions below.
Despite it all I did pretty well until I got the question that asked "Who were the Fuggers." I didn't remember seeing anything about Fuggers in the girl's notes. I didn't remember hearing the teacher mention anything about Fuggers in class. As it stood I didn't have a clue who the Fuggers were, but the teacher was a good guy. Considering he was such a good guy I figured it was my duty to give him an answer. The next day when he was handing out the graded tests he stopped at my desk and just looked at me. He shook his head as he handed me my test and said, "Never in my life have I more wanted to give credit for an answer, but I just couldn't do it. Good job anyway."
I'll never forget that answer. It went something like this:
The Fuggers were a group of people in times past who fugged. Fuggers made up a large part of society as fugging was a very interesting and pleasurable undertaking. Fuggers could often be found fugging in alleys, fugging in houses, fugging just about everywhere. Some Fuggers charged to fugged. Other Fuggers fugged just for the sake of fugging. Fugging became so widespread that you would sometimes find entire families who fuggers. In those cases you would have a father fugger, a brother fugger, a sister fugger, and even a mother fugger.
By the way, I did find out who the Fuggers were and learned that my answer was indeed just a bit incorrect.

Them Fuggers were rich.....Obama would have loved them.
You know Obama sees himself as Robin Hood...Oh yeah, robbing the rich and giving it to the poor....after him and Moose-Shall take their cut of course.

Ok, I get my own money back that was handed out.........................................whut? :thatsright:

I remember giving an answer of that sort on a test in an undergrad soc class many years ago, not as clever as yours though.
The question was to explain Merton's Canon, which I later found was just a sociologist's parochial rephrasing of Occam's Razor, but I couldn't remember it from (What I had done of) the reading at the time and had probably missed whatever day the lecture discussed it. So I wrote that it was a 16" coast defense gun, protecting the approaches to the Panama Canal during the Second World War. The prof got enough of a chuckle out of it to mention it in the lecture after the test. Did okay in the class, ultimately.

If those 15,000 new IRS employees were all in enforcement, they would likely pay for themselves by nailing tax cheats like Vinnie, but you know they aren't.
For the most part, they'll be affirmative-action employees in the new Muslim Outreach Division.
