Does anyone here..., actually do policy or LD debate? Options

if you dont know what that is, i assume no...

I just started this year, and its pretty fun... lol bad part is that we're in the toughest league in the state, but at least that gets us prepped for state competition, my debating role models are these two seniors at our school, they're second in our entire state ^^

Too bad I suck right now though, lol anyways, has anyone dont debate in competition before? or are part of the NFL (National Forensic League, not football...)

haha so you mainly focus on student congress? we dont even have practices, our coach just says "you, you, and you, you're going to the congress competition" and they still get like 1st place in their house.. i envy those ppl

No I mainly focus on Lincoln-Douglas, I'm just better at Student Congress.

I've won Outstanding Speaker at every student congress i've been to this year (including States) except for once where i didn't make the board cause i didn't give enough speeches, and in the prelim round at states I got superior in my house but I ended up winning teh whole tourney so it worked out.

Kathleen ask Jules or whoever your school sent in Senate about my Cuba speech :). The best part is I get to give it again for a bill on Nationals.

Also, I can play the politics pretty well, at least on the District Level.

I also have many memorable lines that people often quote from my speeches:

"And they can still afford new tanks after their old ones' tracks get sticky from running over civilians."

"I envision an America where we can say, 'No Mr. Khrushchev! We will not bury you. That would be a waste of our tax dollars."

"The great philosopher ralph waldo emerson once said, "Mexico will poison us!' As you cvan see, history is more relevant today than ever."

"Fellow Senators, when teh Constitution is finally dead and buried, do we really want its tombstone to say 'We did it for the druggies'"?
