It is no secret that I am not a fan of George Soros and his many tentacle organizations. One of the most idiotic out there is “Think Progress”. I have actually never found writing on their site that is not seriously flawed in almost every paragraph and in many cases every sentence.

This week in his address, President Obama went after everybody’s favorite scapegoat, Big Oil. Regarding gas prices he called out speculators and got after oil companies for taking subsidies. Let it be known that these “subsidies” are tax breaks for exploration and extraction. So what’s his big solution that will send fuel prices back down quickly, just like the ocean levels, and with them prices for food, clothing and other necessities?
If you know anything about me then you know that I enjoy a good debate, with the caveat that I enjoy a good debate that is free of logical fallacies. I like to debate for several reasons such as; it might change my mind on a given topic if I am incorrect in my current position, it might help someone else change their mind on a subject (yeah right), it helps everyone involved know where the other person is coming from and I gain more knowledge when I do it. I would feel comfortable saying most people do not share my view. Most people do not enjoy having their world view questioned as I do. I like to question all views respectfully and assess their merit. Such debate and questioning usually occurs, for me, in a one on one situation. Last week I found myself in a situation with several people making points at and even attacking me while I presented fact after fact shutting them down. Needless to say I was in hog heaven.
