Mitt Romney is a Liar (as a GOP Candidate)
No trolling, no semantics.
I must prove that Romney as a GOP candidate has lied at least 10 times.
R1: Acceptance
R2: Argument, CON rebuttal
R3: Rebuttals and Closing
Due to the last word advantage, CON will only have the opportunity to rebut 5 of PRO's points in R3. PRO will only be able to rebut 7 points in the final round if necessary.

(That includes the flip flopping he and Mitt both share) That being said, I would like someone to perhap...
America Is Rapidly Becoming More Like Nazi Germany

The United States of America is becoming more like Nazi Germany every single
day. Most Americans simply have never learned what life was really like back in Nazi
Germany. Under Adolf Hitler, Germany was a Big Brother totalitarian police
state that ruthlessly repressed freedom and individual liberty. Under Adolf
