Question Insanity: What to Ask Progressives

Life has a way of overcoming a lot of those leftist lies.

One of my favorites was the one about rich kids getting out of going to Vietnam. My grandfather was raising 5 kids on an electrician’s salary and neither one of his two sons went to Vietnam. He wasn’t anti war by any means. He had done his time in WWII europe and figured that it was enough.

One son joined the national guard and the other got a college deferment.

“Why are blacks who are proud of their race and heritage praised by liberals, and whites who are proud of their race and heritage condemned by liberals as racists?”

Gosh, this game is so easy!

Blumenthal had no leg to stand on; typical of the left. It’s not the law that motivates them but their emotions. And they operate on the assumption that the bully pulpit will prevail because the intimidated will concede instead of spend millions in defense.

And, I forgot to add: His questions are priceless. In putting them to liberals like these two persons the author describes, I have this mental image of what happens to the Fembots in Austin Powers" when their logical foundations crumble:

"...name on traditional liberal value..."

Condemnation of hypocrisy? They seem to be really on board with that one...

Condemnation of hypocrisy? They seem to be really on board with that one...

From both ends. They decry it, yet live hypocritical lives, as many of these questions point out.

Is the book as good?

Check the link to the book. This is a quote from the link:

Here's a sample passage from Chapter 6:

"If some people had wings and others didn't, and the government wanted to enforce "fairness," soon no one would have wings. Because wings cannot be redistributed, they can only be broken. Likewise, a government edict cannot make people smarter or more capable, but it can impede the growth of those with the potential. Wouldn't it be fair if, in the name of equality, we scar the beautiful, cripple the athletes, lobotomize the scientists, blind the artists, and sever the hands of the musicians? Why not?"

That was an excellent take down of the Liberal Blumenthal! Saw it when it aired and was cheering Beck on!

Speaking with liberals is possible, but only with liberals who are in the middle 30%.

The author pretty much says the same: As the two women faced my questions, their knowing smiles turned to scowls. Sometimes they would backtrack and correct their previous statements; sometimes, they would angrily storm out of the room in the manner of Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg on The View with Bill O’Reilly. After a while they would return with more talking points, and then they had to answer another logical question. My friends who witnessed the scene told me later they saw the shorter bully beginning to foam at the mouth.

Speaking with the committed liberal is a waste of time. His approach is not to convince but to expose. Not all, but many in attendance will have rational beliefs, and understand just how absurd their points are from such exposure. It's not for the benefit of the liberal, but for the benefit of those confronted by them...
