GardenerForLife - You are correct, that is a more accurate characterization of his position than what I originally said.
My general reaction: Fellow conservatives, we have so many battles to fight, we need all hands on deck. Whatever your personal taste for Ben Shapiro's style, he is one of the good guys. I think he is worth listening to frequently, if not everyday. I know people are frustrated now, but I don't think it is wise to spend our energy on these threads talking down our fellow conservatives -- especially those that are really fighting for the truth.
