This is an excellent discussion surrounding the "debate" between Alex Jones and Piers Morgan

Logic Saves Lives Part 9 – Alex Jones vs. Piers Morgan

…vs. Reason, Manners, Composure, Meaningful Communication and Philosophy

Logic is about understanding reality in a non-contradictory way and how can we see things for what they are.

Metaphysical Laws
1.Identity
2.Causality
3.Non-Contradiction

Topic: Tony Myers (TragedyAndHope.com) and I discuss what is troubling us about Alex Jones, Piers Morgan, and the current gun control debate.

Are you laughing at the presentation or the comparison of AJ ranting to Sam Kinison in Back to School?

Laughing at the start of the presentation with the Vietnam veteran acting like Alex Jones.

If you've never listened to the School Sucks Podcast I recommend checking out this episode if you have the time and interest:

171: Logic Saves Lives Part 6 – Reality Time For Bill Maher

Topic: Today’s show is a personal exercise to help me let go of a long-standing resentment against comedian and political commentator Bill Maher. Cory, Osborne and I analyze several clips from his HBO show, Real Time With Bill Maher, primarily focusing on two fallacies: composition and division. Many tangents result!

Lately I've developed an interest in learning about logical fallacies to spot out contradictions not only in the political arena, but in my personal life as well.
Here's a couple of good resources:

The next day after the show, Alex declared himself the leader of the liberty movement: “I never wanted to be the real leader of the liberty movement. Ron Paul is more of a statesman, but he’s 76, 77 now. What is he 76? Look up his age. And unfortunately, for all intents and purposes, I am the leader.”

alex jones = EGO
newt gingrich = EGO
howard stern = EGO
piers morgan = EGO

listen to, and he just laid out
why he lit into rand over mitt
this summer. he just said his
ground rules. rand needs to
build up his own movement?

Some good points....then they started droning on and on for over an hour and put me to sleep. But hey, different strokes for different folks I guess.
