WHO ARE YOU CALLING A MODERATE?
Because you've turned comments back on I'm going to assume you have some interest in feedback to your site. I found this site only a few weeks ago because of my interest in the presidential election. I don't normally read blogs, political or otherwise. I read a couple of your entries and was impressed. Your writing and arguments were well thought out and made me think. I bookmarked the site and continued to read.
Unfortunately, the last couple of weeks has been a disappointment. Not because of what you have written about McCain, Palin or Noonan but because of your reaction to the criticism of those writings. The well thought-out arguments I was impressed by have been replaced by angry, defensive ranting. Example: "So, I would say to my knuckledragging friends; you can take your litmus tests, your conservative measuring stick to determine the “purity” of my conservatism, your crazy conspiracy theories, your anti-science, anti-intellectual, anti-elitist bullsh*t and stick it up your ass." You're better than this puerile response.
Or maybe you aren't. Since I'm new here, perhaps when I first read your blog I caught you during one of your thoughtful periods and you're in one of your ranting periods now.
I'm just about full on political talk at the moment. I'll check back sometime after the election to see if the thoughtful Rick has returned. In the meantime, here's some tried and true internet advice to help you get through: Don't feed the trolls.
