What is not true is your strawman argument accusing Rochard of claiming that the Republicans invested 5 years to bring this case to the SC...no one here even argued that...which is why I corrected you on it.
i'm going to help you out again, since you like fancy concepts like strawman. the debate position you should have taken was that i took rochard's comment out of context.

he claimed

"This is a classic example of what's wrong with our government - Instead of fixing the problem, the Republican party decided to invest five years of fighting this. They should have improved the flaws in this law to fix it, not fight to remove it."

this, as it is used here, has nothing to do with the thread, the topic or even the actually SC decision.

not a strawman fallacy but the fallacy of quoting out of text.

next, neither of us know wtf he meant. for all we know, he very well may think the republicans brought this to the courts.

you're welcome.
