Arguments with the highest score are displayed first.
Argument replies (both in favor and in opposition) are displayed below the original argument.
To follow along, you may find it helpful to show and hide the replies displayed below each argument.
To vote for an argument, use these icons:
You have the power to cast exactly one vote (either up or down) for each argument.
Once you vote, the icon will become grayed out and the argument's score will change.
Yes, you can change your vote.
Debate scores, side scores and tag scores are automatically calculated by an algorithm that primarily takes argument scores into account.
All scores are updated in real-time.

One thing I have noticed about Liberals. They never admit the truth of the harm from their extreme ideology. They never have an apiphany and actually see how failed their ideology. They are like brainwashed cultists who can't see through their indoctrination.
They want everyone to believe that Progressive thought is working wonderfully in this nation regardless that Trump was just elected from the outright anger from Americans to the Political correct thought police in the Democrat Party.
It's strange for me. When I was a kid, the Left scolded the right for pinching free speech by calling some of it "ungodly". Now they are the ones telling us certain speech isn't allowed. It's like I'm in the twilight zone. Jimmy Carter's Liberalism could co-exist with today's Conservatives. The problem is, when the right moved a little more to the left, the left sprinted as far left as is possible and into the abyss where no one can talk rationally with these people.
Liberals were once the ones so concerned about censorship and today they have censored any mention of our Christian heritage from any public grounds.
They are the thought police censoring from College campuses any conservative speech that they deem offensive to the one.
Remember O'hare when she sued our schools for allowing communities the choice of having a prayer (with no child forced to pray) or not having a Prayer. We used to have that freedom. You see our speech is no longer allowed to offend even the one.
I crucified Bush for invading Iraq and I crucified Obama for pulling out with no plan to police Iraq. I crucify Trump every time he gets tweet happy. I'm a Conservative. We support our leaders, but we don't revere our leaders as Gods like the left does.
It always makes me laugh when ultra-conservatives talk about Obama's foreign policy. The foreign policy he inherited was that of Bush, and the Senate and House he inherited were a Republican majority. Even if he had wanted to get every single drone and troop from the middle East, the Republicans wouldn't have let the bill pass.
Bush, who I detest, didn't cause Obama to bomb 7 nations unprovoked, nor did he make him oust Kadafi or Mobarek from Egypt and Libya, opening up Islamic North Africa to migrate in mass to Europe, causing much of the immigration crisis.
No he didn't: but do you honestly think that the President is the only authority at any time, regarding military procedure?
The Senate, the House, the CIA, the Secretary of State, don't always legally require Obama's permission for every single they do. HE doesn't sign off on every drone strike, every squad operation, every event of every war in every continent the US has a military prescence. Heck, half the time Presidents aren't even aware of what the CIA are up to, nor, often, are Congress.
The Congress have more military say than the President does, and the CIA operates largely as an independent entity.
I don't blame Obama for the refugee crisis. I think if Obama had become President when Bush became President, we wouldn't have gone to Iraq and Afghanistan in the first place. In fact, his whole Presidency was largely about an attempt to clean up Bush's mess. Unfortunately, he had a Republican majority Congress to deal with.
Do you know how many bills they blocked or impeded for Obama? They impeded the healthcare act to the point where it barely resembles the original bill. They impeded the withdrawal from the Middle East to the point where the Americans are STILL there fighting.
You can't say he didn't try, man. Just look at the bills he and his establishment put forward regarding the wars in the middle East. During Bush's tenure, Democrats put forward and passed a bill to withdraw from Iraq immediately (in 2008) and Bush vetoed it. Since then, there grew a steadier Republican majority in Congress. Yet Obama got most US troops out within two years of becoming President.
Odd that the group that whines and complains sooo much about the "Crooked MSM" and those "Bad hombres" and "RADICAL ISLAMIC TERRORISM" all the time is calling other people snowflakes.
You people are a pathetic coagulation of shit on the underwear of society.
There's a difference. We stand against foreign entities that aren't our people, our responsibility, and people who want to do our nation's people harm. The left stands against half of its own people, the only people trying to protect the country from foreign enemies. That is having your nation's priorities all out of order and all messed up. If you can't help your own house, it's an abomination to help someone else's house. It's like watching your kids starve, and then turning around and feeding the homeless. It doesn't make you a good person because you fed the homeless. It makes you a pathetic parent.
I watched Obama bomb 7 nations into oblivion, oust 2 Middle Eastern leaders, and turn Iraq into the thresh-hold of hell, all while Obamacare tanked, Europe was attacked by Muslims in mass per mindless Liberal immigration politics, and the EU began to split. His accomplishments? I don't think anyone actually knows. Lot's of bad accomplishments..
Not all destruction ends in death. Nevertheless, his death toll is huge. His destruction was ousting Kadafi and Mobarek from Egypt and Libya, which caused much of the influx of Islamists overrunning Europe with migrants, and Kadafi warned that it would happen. He also pulled out of Iraq, causing the vacuum that manifested ISIS. This ended in a 100,000 person mass genocide of Christians in the Middle East. The amount of Muslims killed is beyond the pale. If Trump had Obama's record, you would crucify him.
Nobel Peace Prize-Winning Obama Has Been At War Longer than any other American President.
President Barack Obama officially became the U.S. president to have been at war the longest — longer than Lyndon Johnson, longer than Abraham Lincoln and certainly longer than George W. Bush.
The New York Times describes Obama’s status as America’s biggest warmonger president as “an improbable legacy” because he ran as an anti-war candidate back in 2008 and promised to end the wars Bush started after the Sept. 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
President Barack Obama officially became the U.S. president to have been at war the longest — longer than Lyndon Johnson, longer than Abraham Lincoln and certainly longer than George W. Bush.
So because no president lasted a full 2 terms during the Vietnam war this makes Obama the most destructive leader? I despised Obama, but that's a ridiculous argument.
Politifact is fake news. They are another Soros' liberal hack site. I've done many debates proving liberal Snopes and Politifact to have demonstrably false claims.
As I read that twice I was struck by how it's a blog and all it basically offered was a dictionary definition and a reference to a study it did not link to. So I went looking for the George Mason study and the three links I found back to it at the school all go white screen when I hit them. And then I found this Pplitifact response. http://www.politifact.com/truth-o-meter/ blog/2013/may/29/responding-george-mason-university-press-release-a/
So basically, your source sniped at them after a small sample they disagreed with and now your study might actually have been pulled offline.
I'm not going back to reread everything you ever posted to see where you debunked Politifact. Regardless, I can tell you a source beats no source any day.
