That sentence stood out to me, too. Perfectly describes wimpy liberals everywhere.

I found this article fairly compelling, but I wouldn't have wanted to write it myself. Claiming that people who disagree with you are somehow psychologically flawed is a nasty trait of the Liberal Left that good men should not seek to imitate. Arguments are won not by screaming "homophobe" and silly phrases like that, but by treating your opponents with respect and assuming that they think they have good reasons for believing something. When you show their reasoning to be unsound, you win arguments. I have never seen anyone win an argument by making out that disagreeing with him must mean you are nuts.
