OBAMA's War on Straw Men ------------------------

“Why are folks working so hard for people not to have health insurance?”

“What’s wrong with helping young people get ahead?”

“Pursuing peace and freedom beyond our borders is not to say that every problem has a military solution.”

"I reject the view that says our problems will simply take care of themselves"

"I reject the view that says america must chose between caring for the generation who built this country and investing in the generation who will build its future."

"We do not have to chose between markets that are unfettered by even modest protections and a draconian state" (False Dichotomy)

"There are those who say my plans are too ambitious! that we should be trying to do less, not more"

"There are those who embrace the view that can be summerized in two words, Anything Goes"

"There are those who say we cannot afford to invest in science"

"There are those who incessantly warn us that Government is this sinister entity at the heart of all our problems"

"Interest in persuing peace and security beyond our boarders is not saying that every conflict has a military solution"
