” Woods described Reiner’s humanity, a very different picture of the man most of have seen over the last decade.”

Yup.
Funny how political differences especially online can foster great anger.
Old geezers like me remember “Meathead” very well and liked the character, and love "When Harry Met Sally", but when Reiner came out with vicious Trump hatred, all that went out the door. Its fine for people to belong to different political parties or there'd be no elections, but don't carry political disagreements to constantly calling your political opponent, "Hitler".

The great line of demarcation in modern poli
tics, Eric Voegelin used to point out, is not a division
between liberals on one side and totalitarians on the
other. No, on one side of that line are all those men
and women who fancy that the temporal order is the
only order, and that material needs are their only
needs, and that they may do as they like with the
human patrimony.

On the other side of that line are
all those people who recognize an enduring moral
order in the universe, a constant human nature, and
high duties toward the order spiritual and the order
temporal


Folks,

Conservatism is a way of thinking, it is not a ideological political position.

Read the above. is there anything you disagree with? Read it often, let your lips move, outline points that speak to you and give to others.

Wretched behavior, Obermann too! There’s accountability and then there is cheerleading. To have been so in the bag for the corrupt HRC that your head explodes is inexcusable.

I saw a retired E9 go so completly ballistic he alienated every one of his peers and colleagues including his now divorced wife. It was fugly.
