    that charge has a histoy, in Germany in the 1920s and early 1930s it was called 'reducto ad mussolineum' and used to attack those who compared the leaders of the Nazi Party to the Italian Dictator. There was a similar situation in China of the 1930s and early 1940s when any Chinese or Americans who compared Mao and his agrarian reformers to the leadership of the USSR, those critics were charged with 'reducto ad stalineum." Some times the charges are warranted.

    Which means being indecisive to the point where even more Americans will get killed, ransoming, more terrible healthcare legislation and promising minorities everything under the moon but only delivering more welfare dependency.

    Yep.

    • Conventional antipsychotics: Also called neuroleptics, these have been used to treat mental disorders since the mid-1950s. They work by blocking dopamine receptors in the brain. Dopamine is a neurotransmitter believed to be involved in the development of delusions. Conventional antipsychotics include Thorazine, Loxapine, Prolixin, Haldol, Navane, Stelazine, Trilafon, and Mellaril.
    • Atypical antipsychotics: These newer drugs appear to be effective in treating the symptoms of delusional disorder with fewer movement-related side effects than the older typical antipsychotics. They work by blocking dopamine and serotonin receptors in the brain. Serotonin is another neurotransmitter believed to be involved in delusional disorder. These drugs include Risperdal, Clozaril, Seroquel, Geodon, and Zyprexa.
    • Other medications: Tranquilizers and antidepressants might also be used to treat anxiety or mood symptoms if they occur in combination with delusional disorder. Tranquilizers might be used if the person has a very high level of anxiety or problems sleeping. Antidepressants might be used to treat depression, which often occurs in people with delusional disorder
    People with severe symptoms or who are at risk of hurting themselves or others might need to be hospitalized until the condition is stabilized.

    Would these be the preferred medications for an individual involved in attempting to rationalize voting for a corrupt, serial lying, money-launderer for president of a (once) free republic?

    Neither obama nor Mr. Bush has a 'body count list', just the Clintons.

    There is little anyone on here can say that might sway your support for Clinton. Realizing that, if you wish to vote for the most corrupt person to ever seek office, then so be it.

    few Americans are dying in foreign wars, millions of more Americans are given coverage in a program which of course you want to deny them, I am not aware of any moon that Obama. It was not a ransom payment.

    It absolutely was. As of today, the US pays ransoms to terrorist countries no differently than victims pay "protection" from mafioso. That's where we are today.

    So you're sqying that this money we have supposedly owed Iran for almost 40 years,through the terms of six presidents (including 95% of Obama's) is suddenly deemed necessary to return on the exact same date Iran returns our hostages?

    I won't even get into asking why the plane with the hostages wasn't allowed to take off from Iran until the Iranians confirmed that their plane, loaded with pallets of cash, had embarked on its joirney home. The excuse given that the money couldn't have been wired because Iran isn't part of the international banking system is a lie. Iran does business with countries we do business and is capable of receiving wire transmissions via third parties. Such transactions go on zillions of times in the course of international business every single day.

    We pay ransoms now; the cat's out of the bag. Next time a hate filled pack of wikd Muslims determines it needs cash, extortion of Uncle Sam will be seen as an option. As a result, lives will be inperil.

    It absolutely was a ransom payment. That $400 million was frozen when the shah was overthrown ( it was spent by his regime), and then was released by Bill Clinton and used to settle lawsuits against Iran by Americans who were burned by the regime change. In other words, Bill Clinton used the Shah's money to settle debts that the Ayatollahs refused to pay Americans that were owed money.

    The $400 million forwarded to Iran was taken out of the U.S. treasury....U.S. tax dollars.

    Stop being an apologist for brazen corruption.

    AFP: U.S. Agreed To Repay $400 Million Plus Interest To Iranian Government Over Disputed Arms Sale. On January 17, the United States government agreed to repay $400 million plus approximately $1.3 billion in accumulated interest to the Iranian government to resolve a disputed arms sale between the two nations that occurred “prior to the break in diplomatic ties” during the 1979 Iranian revolution. According to reporting from Agence France-Presse (AFP) and other news agencies, the payment resolved a deadlock at the Iran-U.S. Claims Tribunal that had stood since the tribunal’s inception in 1981, and represented “a broader clearing of the decks between the old foes” just one day after the signing of an historic nuclear agreement. AFP reported at the time that the Obama administration’s political opponents were already attempting to scandalize the arrangement:

    This wasn't the "US government" agreeing to anything. This was a unilateral decision by Obama that he won't answer for. Look at all these money transfers for 999,999,999.99. You seem like an intelligent person. You know damn well that this is a shady business he's engaged in. It was ransom. It was taxpayer money. It was illegal.

    Frankly, I'm okay with trusting much of what comes from his camp, in part BECAUSE he has no love for the US. It's hardly unreasonable to imagine nationalism creating a blind spot.

    I've never heard of "reductio ad mussolinium." I'd like a citation or some form of credibility to back that up. As for 'reductio ad stalinum', that came as a variation of 'reductio ad hitlerum', so I'm not sure why it's relevant.

    As to your charge that "some times [sic], the charges are warrented," it doesn't matter. Trying to make your point by simply comparing someone to Hitler, since people rightly have such a negative view of Hitler's atrocities, is a logical fallacy. Always. So no, logical fallacies are not ever warranted.

    Donald Trump is a glorified trust fund baby who has failed at almost everything he's done, and the one thing he's succeeded in doing was gift-wrapped for him (okay, I'm not counting The Apprentice televisions show). All that to say that there is PLENTY of ammunition for hitting Trump without resorting to logical fallacies.

    I'd agree to give a little back, too, if it meant I could bilk trillions from people.

    Andrew Ziem , the co-founder and creator of BleachBit, the software program allegedly used by Hillary Clinton’s team to permanently wipe emails, revealed during an interview on the FOX Business Network’s Varney & Co., that even though the emails are permanently deleted from Clinton’s server, the possibility of those e-mails living on third-party servers still exists.


    Why go to that extent to erase yoga emails?

    Gosh a ruddies, Trump is at a point when he can be stopped, now when he is a candidate, before he rises to power. Hitler was a similar point, running for President. He was using many of the same type attacks and appeals that Trump is using. It is not a logical fallacy.
