Hey, I was defriended by a “progressive” friend who tried to compare the Bush administration to McCarthyism. When I pointed out that the Venona papers have proved that McCarthy was actually correct and that there were a couple of hundred communist spies in the Federal government, he defriended me.

They have problems with facts. This guy didn’t even realize that the Progressive party was a collection of communists and socialists. Wow.

Ignorance is free, I suppose.

"Don't bother me with the facts. My mind is made up."
It's unwise to take positions taken based on emotion. The more left leaning a person is the more right brain and emotion dominated they are.

Indeed. See my tagline.
