So? Ideologues bad, thinking people good? That's what I get although I don't necessarily agree with who or what is categorized as an "Ideologue".

Why is there no justice for the 58,000 + names on the Viet Nam Wall?



Why is there no justice for to the millions,
who served with honor in Viet Nam?

When will the Right Wing Main Stream Media demand
that Hanoi Kerry apologize to the names on the Wall
And to Viet Nam Vets who served with honor?
Why are we still "war criminals" and Hanoi Kerry is a "hero"?
When will the GOP controlled Senate set the record straight?

US GOP controlled Senate

AND

Main Stream Right Wing Media

Hang your heads in shame!

When you wake up in the morning,
and look in the mirror,
before you go to the US Senate,
or to the TV or Radio studios,
know that you did nothing to remove this traitor.

Well REAL Americans know what you did NOT do!

U.S. Constitution Amendment XIV

Section 3. No person shall be a Senator or Representative in Congress,
or elector of President and Vice President,
or hold any office, civil or military, under the United States,
or under any state, who, having previously taken an oath, as a member of Congress,
or as an officer of the United States,
or as a member of any state legislature,
or as an executive or judicial officer of any state,
to support the Constitution of the United States,
shall have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the same,
or given aid or comfort to the enemies thereof.
But Congress may by a vote of two-thirds of each House, remove such disability.

What about his opinion (and I am paraphrasing) if there are no facts that can change your mind then you are an ideologue.

I began to think, what facts could be found to change my opinions on what topics?

Good read.

However, I find the author's description of an Ideologue much more applicable to the current mindset of the Democratic Party than anything near Rush Limbaugh, et al. The Liberal attitude is the very embodiment of strident, inflexible dogmatism. Just try to rationally discuss the Bush administration's war policy with the average anti-war protester, and it will become clear.

I think the author would like modern conservatives to be unthinking, immovable blocks of rationalist dogma, but it just ain't so.
