    Nope.

    Claiming that The Hobbit isn't a reliable source for 2020 election predictions isn't an example of the genetic fallacy either.

      Pfft. Everyone knows that it is the Silmarillion that's the best guide

        And now you've moved on to the straw man fallacy.

        Maybe one of these days you'll actually show what the article seer linked got wrong in its reporting. I've looked it over, and the information seems pretty solid, but feel free to show otherwise.

              You clearly don't know either of the fallacies you've quoted :)

              It's not my job to debunk fake news. If you or anyone else want to be taken seriously, don't cite known sources of the stuff.

                Right, you've got nothing.

                And for your next trick, you'll stick crayons up your nose while trying not to drool on your shirt.

                  I never claimed otherwise. I simply dismissed a story that comes from a known source of fake news and Russian propaganda.

                  After all these posts, how is it that you still don't understand that simple fact?

                  Quick! Throw out more names of logical fallacies! That'll teach me :)

                      I responded to someone else, and you decided to pick a fight. I'm afraid that's not my fault.

                        At this point, I will ask you to leave the thread until you can contribute something of substance.

                          I'll bet legal scholars will be debating this case long after we've forgot who Michael Flynn is.
                          It could and most probably will be appealed by Judge Sullivan or the Appeals court could take it up of their own accord. It could also go to the SCOTUS. Flynn was not exonerated as Trump lyingly stated, but the court simply deferred to the Decision made by the executive Branch to dismiss. I hope and expect this decision will be reversed due to the harm it will do to the rule of law.

                          The dissenting Judge said: "it is a great irony that in finding the district court to have exeeded its jurisdiction, this court so grievously oversteps its own".

                          If the corrupt Administration and the corrupt Atty Gen. should succeed in this corrupt effort to overturn the case and it is dismissed without prejudice, then it could be taken up again next year after Trump is thrown out of office.

                              This part of the article appears more significant than the rest:
