Texas Rainmaker

On March 27Th, 2009 the Texas Rainmaker blog, criticizes the national government for not aiding the the families affected by the recent flooding in Fargo, South Dakota. But his argument for this criticism is very fallacious and goes as far to say that the reason the government doesn't help is that Barack Obama hates white people. The author asks a series of rhetorical questions, that effectively ask where are the liberals while this problem is occurring, and then goes on to say that the citizens "busting their asses in sub-freezing temperatures to help themselves". The error with this argument is if the citizens are helping themselves then where are the conservatives that are part of our national government and why aren't they helping. The other major fallacy in his argument is that later in the comments he boldly states, "Personal responsibility… A concept lost on liberals" (meaning the people affected should do it), which totally contradicts his initial bashing of the liberal government when he claims it is not helping. He even makes me remember election time when he states "How come in 2 weeks, you will never hear about the Fargo flooding ever again?", because throughout Barack Obama's campaign the conservatives were constantly criticizing the media sources for being too "easy" on him. Overall this authors work was very fallacious in my opinion, did not have a lot of supporting evidence and more so did not make sense at all because it was poorly organized and written. Obama does not hate white people, I guarantee it.
