FALSE CHOICE ALERT - Obama's verbal tick

Mark Steyn: Government's grasp goes global | government, global, geithner, obama, economy - Opinion - OCRegister.com: "

In their first two months, Obama and Geithner have done nothing but vaporize your wealth, and your children's future. What began as an economic crisis is now principally a political usurpation. And, to return to the president's 'false choice,' that 'chaotic and unforgiving capitalism' is exactly what we need right now. It's the quickest, cheapest, fairest, most efficient route to economic stabilization and renewal. A regimented and eternally forgiving global command economy with no moral hazard will destroy us all."

I linked to this Mark Steyn paragraph because it so succinctly states what is going on. But it also gives us the opportunity to call a FALSE CHOICE alert. Whenever you hear FALSE CHOICE in an Obama speech you know you are being served up a STRAW MAN.
