I don't believe in liberalism, but it does bother me if people only read FR.

That does not aid in an ability to think critically about all viewpoints.

Before becoming a Freeper, I haunted a bulletin board maintained by C-Span which gradually lost posters and had only about ten or so when I left. I felt that I learned from the experience, but I don't miss it at all because I came to understand that leftist arguments are a twice-told tale.

I think at some point you have to have the courage to say, "Been there, done that, got the tee shirt."

Someone was pointing out Juan Williams floating a trial baloon on one show and, half an hour later, floating it again on another show after it had once been shot down. And I think that not atypical of leftists; they attempt to prevent judgement from being final even though their argument is a transparent grasping at straws.
