I understand fully how "it can work for us." But, if carried to the extreme, the rigid practice of black-on-black or female-on-female debate in the media would serve to solidify stereotypes and taboos that silence white and male voices on the issues of abortion and racism. The emerging issues of fathers/husbands looking to veto abortion of their own children or white victims of racism looking to face their enemies are just beginning to get traction.

What do you call a conservative who has fully mastered the tactics of Saul Alinsky? A liberal.

Uh, no.

A conservative who has fully adopted Alinsky's tactics is morally indistinguishable from a leftist -- for him the ends justify the means.

A conservative who understands Alinsky and can selectively use his tactics with integrity is a formidably effective activist.

My impression is you took Matt's statement out of context. Therefore, because you were not privey to ALLLLLL he had to say, the statement seemed out of line to you. I heard all the statementS about the subject, and I agree with MATT!!
