Well, it’s hard to sound intelligent in your arguments when one ignorantly makes insulting comments, but I hope the substance of my previous posts will be taken into account more than my error.
Yes, and I agree with your sentiment, seemingly on all fronts—from Frink’s responses, to conflating the bad apples with the whole bunch, to liberals thinking themselves or their arguments intellectually superior.
For myself though, I really wonder how often Republicans (or perhaps mainly those with power or influence?) use “defending the life and liberty of the child” as a banner of supposed morality when really that’s not their endgame at all. For example, it was people on the Republican side that conflated Starbucks removing winter depictions from their cups as a moral attack on Christmas.
I will be the first to admit that there is plenty of petulance on the Republican side, and I am actually pretty quick to condemn it. I don’t know how apparent I’ve made that on this forum, as I try to stay out of the political debates most of the time, but in real life, I make no bones about how I hate it when conservatives get up in arms over non-issues.
I appreciate your response.
