Thanks for your thoughts, and this is my take: you, and people like you, are not the subject of the author’s point. Your point is much more cogent than the authors. And you don’t seem like a blinder on straight ahead single issue voter. Lot of folks on the right internet are. I think this author is, and he was using tortured logic and a straw man argument to try and defend it and I think he failed.
My comments were directed at that mindset.
Perhaps you should have asked me what I meant by the expression before you so brusquely and cavalierly brushed my comment aside.
