False logic...
That's all that I keep reading in people's posts about how disgusted they are in this election and the issues that were voted on. They jump to conclusions, they make baseless accusations, and they make wild assumptions; all the while lumping all of us who didn't vote for Kerry in the same category. They use false logic.
When you can't tie your argument nicely together with the subject of your argument, it is making large leaps of false logic. Logic flows in a neat and orderly fashion. A to B to C to D, etc. When you make an argument that jumps from A to D, skipping B and C, it makes you look ignorant and uninformed. That's what I read in many of the political, and religious statements being posted since the election.
Folks, think your arguments through logically, then make your comments. It will keep there from being so much animosity and bickering.

The only thing I looked up were populations and the number of states with "faithless elector" laws.
