Democrats are funnier than Republicans.

My opponent seems hell bent on turning this into a 'Who can tell a funnier joke' debate. Nevertheless, I will counter the points presented to me. "A)As a commenter pointed out, the resolution does not make clear whether we look to intentional or unintentional humor. With this in mind, it does not matter that Bush is not trying to be funny." This is true, and I concede that I did not make this clear. However, one must admire true talent in being funny over the humorous side-affects of having the IQ of a wet towel. If you are going this angle, I would expect at the very least, a list of republicans matching my own (31 examples), preferably with quotes, as they aren't comedians. "B) Comedians are not the only funny people in the world as my opponent is advocating. The fact that these quotes are not "funny" is a matter of opinion and is not a fact." There is not one instance where I say, or even allude to the idea that comedians are the ONLY funny people in the world. I have no idea where you get that from. All I am saying is that comedians are a good example of people that others find funny, for if many people did not find them funny, then they would not be employed. Comedians ARE funny because by definition, they are required to make people laugh. This is why you cannot just make up names, call them funny, and just tell me I've never heard of them. 'An entertainer who performs in a humorous manner, especially by telling jokes; Any person who is characteristically humorous or amusing ' "C) You could, but you didn't." Actually, no I couldn't because the title of the debate isn't "Who can copy and paste more comedic material". That isn't even a debate, its just googling quotes and pictures and trying to make people laugh. By your reasoning I could go into a debate about abortion and say "WELL YOU DIDN'T SAY THIS ISN'T A WHO CAN POST THE CUTEST PUPPY DOG!!! LOOK HOW CUTE IT IS I WIN!!!" "D)This is completely your opinion let the voters decide whether or not the quotes are funny." Well obviously it is my opinion because I said '(at least to me)'. But once again I'm reminding you that this isn't a debate about posting funny pictures and letting voters decide which picture is funniest. To sum up, the topic was 'Democrats are funnier than Republicans'. I have demonstrated sixteen examples of democrat/liberal comedians while my opponent has only been able to muster up a collection of quotes and pictures from one person. To vote CON means to say you find a small array of quotes to be a definitive example of Republican superiority over the Democrats in terms of humour. I might as well add another 15 comedians onto my list Nick Cannon Larry David Bernie Mac Billy Crystal Carlos Mencia Joe Rogan Drew Carey Lewis Black Steven Wright Ellen DeGeneres Kathy Griffin Andy Dick Bill Hicks Arj Barker Jeff Garlin Running through some numbers here we find that Number of comedians presented Biowza- 31 Opponent- 0 This isn't a 'who can name more comedians' debate either, but not only has my opponent not named ANYONE that the general society finds funny (ie, comedians) but he has not provided one iota of evidence suggesting that Republicans are as funny or funnier than Democrats. All that has happened is that he has decided to turn this debate into a popularity contest to see who can post funnier material, and frankly I am having none of it. So if you've actually read the entire debate, I see no way around voting PRO. Thank you.
