Vermont's empty CP

	Although , I hate to rehash old arguments from this topic, I feel
compelled and will, especially since the Vermont CP is the most substantive
issue on the net besides Chud's chronic diahrea (Adam I know a specialist
in D.C.)
	Mr. Hernandez I don't understand how you can assert that 
> "I do not believe that the counterplan "really" grants impairment."
	Hernandez's defense begins with
> "if... the counterplan solves an impairment, then there is NO impairment at
the end of the round."
Question: where does the resolution ask if we can solve?
Hernandez you have fallen in the great Debate trap, that if you use a 
few big debate words you can remove yourself from all logic. If you were
trying to convince a rational individual (outside of our
skewed, deluded, demented, world) that the news media does not impair, you
wouldn't give him ten reasons why you have this great CP that can solve the
world within an hour and 15 minutes. You would hopefully argue (GOD FORBID)
that the media does not impair and is actually a good source at educating 
people.
	Hernandez moves on, and tells us that: 
> the counterplan also indicates that the impairment is NOT bad
> because it led to the pretreatment of "bad" messages that have a
> longlasting effect.  In this case, the counterplan proves (if won) that
> the impairment was a good thing! 
	Hernandez, this poor guy on the middle of the street is going crazy,
banging his head on the nearest mailbox. Straighten his confused mind,
defend your assertion that the CP does not grant impairment, and dont feed
him all this Bull Shit that the impairment is the best thing since bottled
beer (because he really doesnt care).
	Hernandez than fires the last few bullets,
> Third, strategically, we also argued that the resolution is not a 
resolution of fact.  As a result, the counterplan carried more weight. 
	Hernandez, you just killed him!!! The absurdity of life may
have been proven in one CP by the University of Vermont. The guy on the
street does not care how strategic you are, he just wants you to explain
your assertion that the Innoculation CP does not grant impairment. 
	Hernandez closes,
> As a result, the counterplan carried more weight.
	Yes, Josh here you are right. Your CP has certainly weighted down
debate, and has made more and people get disgruntled with poor and shallow 
arguments. 

PEACE,

MARC
