Gullibility is not an asset in politics, my FRiend.

Gullibility is not an asset in politics, my FRiend.

Thank you for walking into my trap - I knew you'd come back with some flapdoodle like that. So let me help you out "FRiend."

To have a healthy cynicism is healthy - I and almost everybody on FR has a healthy cynicism. But to be totally cynical about everything all the time is a cancerous obsession and something that only embitters those who hold to it. Seek treatment. Not only that, it takes only a small IQ to always knee jerk react. It takes a larger IQ to put things in proper perspective. Do the math dude.

Now to your other point, the notion that there are two ways and two ways only to go here - your total all out cynicism about everything, or "gullability" - is a straw argument false choice - the way liberals have to argue everything.

I am far from gullible - I have a healthy cynicism. You have an unhealthy obsession. Game, set, match.
