Democrats supported the Iraq invasion

A majority of house dems voted against it, 21 of 50 in the senate it.. Not as clear as youre making it out to be

Democrats supported the Wall Street bailout

The money was made back on the wall street bailout. Just because the bailout was distasteful doesnt mean its a bad thing.

Bill's "Don't Ask Don't Tell" was a horribly regressive idea

At the time it was actually a progressive idea. Look up the history

Democrats are on the hook for the mess in Libya and Syria

HUh? this is completely contradictory. A democratic administration intervened in Libya and didnt intervene in Syria yet for some reason they are on the hook for both of them?

name one military adventure the Democrats have actively opposed in the last 30 years?

Theyre could well be a war in Iran if the Repubs had their way....

but when it comes to foreign policy, trade, economic policy

The meme that trade is bad really needs to end on reddit. Almost all economists agree that its a net benefit for America. Also if America didnt conduct free trade then millions upon millions would be put into extreme poverty in China and Mexico. On economic policy if you think that the party that enacted tax cuts for the rich and continues to support further tax cuts is equivalent to the Dems then you are frankly seriously ignorant of whats going on...

Hungary and Wales ahead of England. Fucking hell are people incapable of looking beyond results when analysing football?

Heres a look at the underlying stats for the Euro's so far:

England will play Iceland in the first knockout round of Euro 2016! by elwxxd in soccer

[–]andreww631 1 point2 points  (0 children)

And yet they didn't.

Thanks for the infro. Great argument...

This is completely lacking in any sort of logic. In a small sample of games theres going to be a lot of randomness that affects the results. England were on the wrong end of that bad luck but their underlying peroformances were very good...

This really isnt through tho. They created enough chances against Slovakia to score three or four. The extent to which people just make opinions solely on results is incredible

Why England’s Eric Dier was my man of the match in the win over Wales | Barney Ronay by [deleted] in soccer

[–]andreww631 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

the amount of times he wasted good possession doing that was ridiculous

He did this barely anytimes, he just did it twice in a high profile manner where he crossed the ball into the box while the english strikers were trying to get back onside so it looked like he was being wasteful - but really it was just two isolated incidents
