You are right. It is fun.

But it won’t last and it will probably result in further entrenchment.

Not everything fun is productive or worthwhile.

It is my opinion that engaging the average Modern Liberal is actually counter productive. You are probably having fun at the expense of someone’s emotional attachment. They will most likely resent it and harden their positions.

It is counter productive in the same way that Ann Coulter has been damaging to Conservatism. I say this even though I generally agree with her. Ann Coulter has been confrontational for the sake of the confrontation and at the expense of being persuasive.

Gee, thanks, Captain Bringdown. ;-)

I know who they are and what they are. Teasing them/confronting them with the truth is all in good fun - of course with the hope they will learn something from it.

I think it's better to keep it to yourself as much as possible, because if they ever get absolute power, they could be really dangerous. Think Gestapo. If we elect a majority of Democrats in the house, and 60 Democrats in the Senate, and a Democrat President, it might be just a few short years before we have to flee this country. Hold on, my tin foil hat needs adjustment.
