If you aren't intelligent enough to follow the convo I'm not doing to dumb down all of my statements to make up for your deficiency.
Yeah you're a real good debater -- calling people idiots for not understanding your backwards logic.
At least I'm not the one saying the ones who got out and voted were only a small sample of the actual voters in some secret vote that is after the real vote.
EDIT: Was this budget vote just a test vote to see who/what people were voting for? No? Really? This was the final vote? Damn.
coach, you missed the point. Kay stated the public is OK with education expenses based on the results of the vote. I stated the voting public is, not the public as a whole. That's the debate - got it?

PERIOD.
That is the Conclusion.
This is a Pass/Fail vote.
Not a "Well, I'll vote against/for the budget, but if it's raining I won't."
How the Non-Voters feel is irrelevant. If they did not vote, they don't have a right to complain.
This ridiculous rain argument is like saying the Yankees would have beaten the Mets if they had Posada playing, so it should go as a WIN, and not a Loss.
As a friend of mine always says: "It Is What It Is."

I didn't call names, I just pointed out an obvious deficiency.
And yes, the voting public is a sample (or subsection) of the actual public. You are in waaaaay over your head.

That's YOUR debate.
Irrelevant as anything other than your belief.
What counts is THE VOTE.
Ask President Dewey about that one.
As I said in another thread, it's called Democracy.
I believe it was you (could have been someone else, so I apologize if I'm wrong) who said democracy has nothing to do with this. WRONG.

Coach, the debate is whether the vote is indicative of overall public sentiment. That's what these posts are all about. Do you follow? I'm not debating that ultimately it's the vote that counts, I'm debating whether the vote accurately reflects public sentiment. Is that spoon fed enough for you???
