Pffffft...

You presented a cogent, rational response filled with facts and sources.

Take that White Privilege bullshite out of this thread!

Team Cracker: Yes. thank you. We disagree with Team Gibberish when they said "the neeg..."um....when they were speaking about "Neeg...". Ummm.........we concede and surrender.

I want to make this clear:

I can see many debates ending like this in the future. No matter race.

Now that that's out the way, LOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOLOL

And how the frick do you win a debate on war powers by totally ignoring the concept and instead focusing on topics like "Why whitey keeping us down"

I've explained this once before on this board. Probably should have gone in more detail. So, here it is, pay attention..

In the late 1970s Prof Shanahan, of U. Texas, came up with a strategy he called The Kritik. Not a misspelling.

The strategy was to ignore the topic and draw your opponent into the area where you had superior knowledge.

Think of it this way... if a monkey played an alligator in soccer the monkey would win. But if the alligator demanded that the game be played in a river, the alligator would win.

So, the kritik debater becomes expert in one area.. like race. He studies it for 2 months. If the topic is War Powers then all the race debater has to do is compile a lot of arguments in those 2 months why race is more important than War Powers.

The opponent has not spent 2 months compiling evidence why race is NOT more important than war powers so he loses if he is going to play on that ground.... (the river of the alligator).

The judges, who are hipsters, view themselves as Tabula Rasa. IE, I shall accept any argument that is not refuted. It's a farce. It's the lazy student's way to debate.

It is promulgated by grad students who run summer shops for HS debaters at major universities. They get paid to amuse HS kids. They don't care about logical thought. They simply want to do the least amount of research and concentrate that research on what issue they care the most about. War Powers does not interest them. Race does.

Soooo...when you and I debate, I can expect to be taken down the path of exploring uses of Metamucil, Viagra, false teeth, and sock garters?

And Lawrence Welk

Do I need to provide a link? There is no way a black man knows who Lawrence Welk is.

Wrong. Don't use any. My big weakness is eye sight. Without contacts I'm blind as a bat. Also, when I drop something on the floor I always check around to see if there is anything else down there before I get up.

My mom was in love with LW. Lucy does not allow me to watch it on PBS. I do a great IRL impression of LW:

"Anda now ladies anda gentlemena...here isa our version of a popular tune for the younger people...by AC anda DC .. Hiway to Hella!!!"

They know how to play the game. When you can't make a rational argument: 1. Claim racism. 2. Let the white guilt and/or black power emotions of the judges gestate. 3. Claim your prize. I really don't care how much flak I take over this but this is a great example of how many in the black community are raised. The perpetual victim.
