Debating rik is like debating the Wall street journal editorial page. He has all the talking points memorized, without even beginning to truly comprehend what those "solutions" mean.
Won't work. I already gave him a list of all the small business tax cuts that Obama signed into law, and he still keep saying that Obama hikes taxes. Just for reference, out of politifact.com -
The fact is, rik isn't ready to internalize the truth yet. He still has too much invested in the talking points he picked up, and isn't prepared to give them up. It'll happen at some point, but that takes time.
BTW, calling Obama liberal is like calling Teddy Roosevelt conservative.
