Healing Body and Heart, Cuban Style: Cuban Doctors and Artists in Haiti

"One young girl watched from her wheelchair on the sidelines, her face expressionless. One of her legs was amputated and the other was heavily bandaged. Spotting her, a woman in the troupe danced over to roll her into the middle of the group. A small circle formed around her, dancing and singing.

In the grand finale of the performance, stilt-walkers waved Cuban and Haitian flags, chanting, “Cuba! Haiti! Cuba! Haiti!” while the trumpets and drums moved the crowd in rhythm. Children snaked through the crowd in a Conga line.

At the ceremony to inaugurate the new trilateral accord, Cuban health minister Dr. José Ramón Balaguer said, “What would the world look like if all men and women lent their skills and solidarity like those of Henry Reeve? It would be a world full of peace, of love–a different world.”

Um, you don't recognize the logical fallacy you're employing, do you? Pity.

Otherwise, you'd actually present a logical and valid argument.

Considering a source is critical thinking, not a logical fallacy. But I would love to hear specifically what logical fallacy he is committing.

Poisoning the well? A negative appeal to emotion?

And dismissing a poll because it was commissioned by Fox News is neither critical thinking or a logical argument.

But you knew this...

Fox News has a history of manipulating polls.

Confronted with clear falsehood, Fox News scraps its "zero tolerance" policy | Media Matters for America

As such, its polls have no credibility.

I know you're tempting me with the Media Matters bit...lol.

And you're misrepresenting Media Matters compaint. Their complaint is against Fox News reporting of poll results. Not that the polls commissioned by Fox News has been manipulated to achieve desired results...you know, like ABCNews, NBCNews, CBSNews, et al do everytime they oversample Democrats but don't disclose that when reporting their own polling results.

Next?

What?

Huh?

You don't say...

My point being that the poster attacking the results of a poll commissioned by Fox News only because it was commissioned by Fox News is an illogical argument.

Further, misrepresenting the Media Matters article and pretending it says anything about the validity of the polls commissioned by Fos News is not only not illogical, but it's dishonest.

I wonder why the left hates big business so much.......Hell most of the CEOs are democrats and liberals like Bill Gates.....Why would you hate your own kind?

You would think they would want big business to be successful because they are the people that do the hiring....When Obama sticks big tax programs on them they are forced to lay off people........I wonder if any of these lefties were hired by someone who is poor.........

Anybody who isn't a republican sellout should dislike big business. Big business is inherently corrupt and in need of a foot up its ass.

Oh? Then why did Obama and the Democrats insert into Obamacare preferential tax treatment for Kaiser Permanente and Tufts Health which exempts each from 50% of the excise tax levied on insurance plans?

Or the nearly $900 million to Tennessee hosptials?

Obama and Democrats...Republican sellouts.

And there you go...intellectual dishonesty, much?

I see, you're the board's sole determining factor as to the credibility of sources. I guess I missed the door outside.

Bottomline...you just lost. You outted yourself as an intellectual dishonest poster with the inability to read and draft a coherent response.

Thanks for playing.

Are you playing or do you seriously not understand the pre-existing condition provisions in Obamacare, a major selling point for nearly every Dem who voted for it?

I mean, didn't the White House just pressure insurers to cover children with pre-existing conditions immediately under Obamacare despite the legislation, at best, being vague about it, and, at worst, not providing such coverage until 2014?

My goodness...was that my point?

Are all blogs 100% inaccurate and unreliable?

Yes...when I disagree with them.

The intellectually disohonesty here reeks. I post a comment. Get called out on it. I cite a couple of quick references, proving my point. But because the reference is a blog, you dismiss it immediately. That's not good faith debate. It's dishonest and illogical.

Now, would like to actually address the argument as made or will you continue to demonstrate that you are dishonest and illogical?
