It was a whim. I was bored and posted in the debate. I didn't research to backup my position nor did I provide specific examples nor sources. That is an example of me just tossing something out there because I'm bored. If I'd taken a stance on a political issue, there would have been a well written essay. I'm an english major, that's what I do when I want to take a stance: write an essay. I was just bored, I believe those things though I do not have well formulated arguments at this time to defend them. Now if you'd like to convince me that my opinion is wrong, cite specific instances, give real statistics, make logical arguments (aka, write an an actual argument, not just "ur wrong, and this is why I think so") Your "stance" on the issue was no more convincing nor thought out than mine. Now your argument about bush was better done, but you still cited no sources, nor did you examine it from both angles and persuade anyone that you were correct. I was not taking a stance, and if those posts of yours were an attempt to do that...well I feel sorry for you if you plan on being an english major, politician, or a lawyer. I'm not taking a stance, I was just throwing out my opinion. I'm far to busy with overdue schoolwork to take a stance, so just accept what I posted as what it was: my opinion. It was not an argument or an attempt to convince others; it was simply my opinion. I have not formulated all the proper elements of my opinion to turn it into a "stance" as you call it. So don't say I'm a pussy just because I'm too busy to write you an essay.
(btw, this is not flame, but using words like "pussy" and "bull****" don't make you sound tough, convincing, or smart. They make you sound like an ignorant moron feebly attempting to express himself in a forceful manner.)
