Union Tool Demonstrates Standard Progressive Debate Techniques. . . .

According to Gregory of Yardale at moonbattery.com:

1. Blame Bush for Obama's failures. ("Bush's tax cuts caused the deficits, not Obama's 30% increase in spending.")

2. Attempt to change the subject instead of answering the question. ("Let's not talk about the failure of the deficit spending to create jobs, let's talk about the {public sector} jobs that weren't destroyed.")

3. When all else fails, call your opponent names. ("How dare you demand a direct answer to a question instead of my talking points, you're an a-hole!")
