You are using a personal experience or an isolated example instead of sound reasoning or compelling evidence. We know that there have been two reported system glitches with the SBA testing so far. I’ve checked with my schools.” You mean, you’ve checked with the people who have been forced into adopting something, lest they lose funding and their jobs? And they’re telling you it’s wonderful? What do you expect them to say? It is also an argument from silence, an informal logical fallacy where the conclusion is based on the absence of evidence, rather than the existence of evidence. It is also an informal logical fallacy known as “argument from repetition,” which signifies that it has been discussed extensively until nobody cares to discuss it anymore. “Much of the information that has come forward has been answered.” Answering a question inadequately does not excuse you from being asked to answer it adequately. No need to thank me, as I consider it my civic duty and haven’t yet grown “tired” of advising you holier-than-thou politicians. I’ve taken the liberty of pointing out some of the misinformation and logical fallacies in your arguments. If you are “tired” of hearing from the people who elected you to represent them, it’s time for you to resign. You are not an elected king who gets to lecture his ignorant subjects. That’s how a constitutional republic works. It is your job and your duty to listen to them, misinformed as they may be, and vote on their behalf. I, myself, am tired of listening to arrogant, misinformed politicians complain about these pesky parents and kids who can’t seem to just shut up and do as the bureaucrats are telling them to do.īut the fact that you are “tired of receiving emails” from your constituents means that you should resign immediately. But given your severely misinformed testimony, I can safely say that you’re in no position to make such a judgement. I’ve not read them, so I can’t comment on whether or not they are. You stated that you are “tired of receiving emails” that you deem to be misinformed. I just watched your fist-pounding temper tantrum during the House Education Committee hearing.
