THE MAN WHO DOESN'T KNOW WHEN TO SHUT UP
GawainsGhost Said: There is only one way to respond rationally to irrationality. IGNORE it.
Well... I agree, but then I don't.
Rick will not convince Shaw of his own ignorance. That, I agree, is completly pointless. You have obviously had your share of attempting to debate leftists and have come to the same conclusion as I, that it is a total waste of time. They live in a parallel universe where right is wrong and wrong is right, and nothing can get through.
BUT, Rick as an audience, and there are a bunch of so-called moderate "swing vote" people out there who don't pay much attention to politics except at election time. There also may be a lot of Democrats who are not comfortable with Shaw's irrationality.
So I guess my point is, Rick is not speaking to you. He's speaking to the fence-sitters, and his contribution of pointing out the ignorance can make a difference.

Re: sknabt
I noticed a trend lately in comment sections of lefties claiming to be former conservatives. I guess they think this makes their opinion more legitimate. Nice try, but adults do not revert to being children.

US OUT OF THE UN! (YOU'RE KIDDING, RIGHT?)
Rick,
You've been in my bookmarks for at least a year or so but I only recently realized the extent of your genius and began reading daily. "mutually assured pretending" (MAP) is a fabulous phrase, not only to describe the UN, but many other human relationship disfunctions. Marriage, education, politics, etc. I think there's a whole book there! You and ShrinkWrapped should team up to write it.
