Rick, suit yourself, I donâ€™t really care. It is not the left, by the way, that you need to worry about, itâ€™s the center. The Left and Right share the same dilemma, they need the [insert derogatory term here] center to win elections. What I point out to both the left and right is that the partisan attacks donâ€™t play all that well with moderates, and yes I know I am a voice in the wilderness. You wont change but there is always a chance one of your readers might. By the way I was a ranter once myself so I am not claiming any moral high ground here. I realized the error of my ways after hearing a speech by Joe Lieberman on how but both sides were speaking past each other to energize their base and how he felt there we could find some common ground on the war if we could end the partisan attacks.

Quote Of The … 23rd Hour…

From Joe Klein, blogging at Time:But the smart stuff is being drowned out by a fierce, bullying, often witless tone of intolerance that has overtaken the left-wing sector of the blogosphere. Anyone who doesn’t move in lockstep with the most…

It’s an outrageously false charge by Klein to intimate this poisonous aspect of policits was invented by Rush Limbaugh. We conservatives - as I demonstrate more than amply above - have been putting up with this crap for 60 fricking years!

I’ll lead by example when the left starts telling the truth.

Yes, because the left spewed vile first that justifies the right doing it. You perfectly illustrate my point that being in the middle is like refereeing a schoolyard fight between foul mouthed juveniles. Here is a thought, try elevating the level of debate by leading by example, and not responding in kind.

Whoops! Wrong link. That was from my own research.

Now I have to dig into my history to find the right link.

Thanks for pointing it out.

> Klein is already hearing it today for daring to call the liberal blogs what they are

You’re linking to a Salon article from 1996!

The only thing “racist” in my post was Gilliard’s attack on Michael Steele. His most famous legacy being all but ignored in the leftist hagiographies of SG prior to me writing it.

Though intentionally insensitive - there was no racism on my part. Unless talking about race is now deemed borderline racist.
