No, common sense is admirable. Insulting people because they do not agree exactly with your view is behavior not likely to inspire joy. It’s the type of attitude I associate with snarky, smarmy, Democrats. Obviously, they’re not the only ones who think a disagreement means don’t persuade the person just tell them they’re stupid or evil.

OK, though I was a Reagan state chair in 1976 when he challenged useless Ford, I must be a snarky, smarmy, Demonrat just because I have no tolerance for a thoroughly useless pro-abort, pro-perversion, anti-gun, tax hiking (on folks of ordinary means to relieve the beleaguered privileged class) envirowhacko, bland, boring, snobby, elitist putz like Romney.

Hmmmm, snarky, smarmy Demonrat!

It's a good thing you don't insult people. Don'tcha just hate it when people do?

There is this thing about charity. Real charity does not require us to tell people the myths they prefer to believe about themselves. Real charity requires candor and honesty. If people insist on being stupid or evil, it is a kindness to tell them so rather than to pretend otherwise to comfort them.

I keep forgetting to point out that if you like being libre, then you had better join the effort to stop Romney and any other privileged establishment pimp because if he is not stopped, then Obozo gets four more years. Just a bit more charity as I defined above.
