Nobody is making up strawmen in this thread. But nice try at stopping the debate and once again trying your lame attempt to act like your superior. You might want to re- read the thread and actually understand what KT is saying since once again you don't get it jon.

Countries including Canada, Mexico, Singapore, and Germany sent supplies, relief personnel, troops, ships and water pumps to aid in the disaster recovery. Britain's donation of 350,000 emergency meals did not reach victims due to laws regarding mad cow disease[73]. Russia's initial offer of two jets was declined by the U.S. State Department but accepted later. The French offer was also declined and requested later.[74] Non-government organization response The American Red Cross, Salvation Army, Oxfam, Common Ground Collective, Emergency Communities, and many other charitable organizations provided housing, food, and water to the victims of the storm. These organizations also provided an infrastructure for shelters throughout Louisiana and other states that held thousands of evacuees. They were not, however, allowed into New Orleans proper by the National Guard for several days after the storm, due to safety concerns. These organizations raised $4.25 billion in donations by the public, with the Red Cross receiving over half of the donations.[75] Volunteers from amateur radio's emergency service wing, the Amateur Radio Emergency Service, provided emergency communications for federal, state and local officials. Over 1,000 volunteer operators traveled to affected areas to provide communications in areas where the communications infrastructure had been damaged or totally destroyed, relaying everything from 911 traffic to messages home.[76] In Hancock County, Mississippi, ham radio operators provided the only communications into or out of the area, and even served as 911 dispatchers.[77] United States Navy personnel unload Canadian relief supplies from a Canadian transport aircraft in Pensacola, Florida. Many corporations also contributed to relief efforts. On September 13, it was reported that corporate donations to the relief effort were $409 million, and were expected to exceed $1 billion.[78]> So your saying that isn't enough?

When in a debate tell your opponient they can't use any factual information. While you use factual informatin "against them". While you attack them by throwing personal insults in an attempt to diminish their credibility!
Originally Posted By jonvn "Gee that must be some new Democratic Party Operative rule." I wouldn't know, since I'm not a democrat. I hope the blinders you have on are comfortable for you. "When in a debate tell your opponient they can't use any factual information" Quoting editorials, or not citing sources is not supplying factual information.

Originally Posted By jonvn Which theory would that be? In any case, if you want to quote facts, quote facts. That's great. If you quote opinion pieces, that's what I am saying is of no interest. If you quote facts but do not cite sources, then that's of little interest as well.
