It was a political post and it was meant as an insult to conservatives. To imply something differently is disingenuous at the very least. And arrogant to say it was only to open eyes. Conservatives certainly don't need a l*****t to twist philosophy or scripture to have THEIR eyes opened. So far there doesn't seem to be ANYTHING that will open a l*****t's eyes.


I agree, Rick!!

Of course, the sun doesn't rise at all. It merely comes into view. Recognizing the difference in those two ways of stating the same thing opens very different lines of consideration. Being tightly bound to any perspective is not a good thing.

Some wise person once said we should have strong opinions loosely held.


"Of course, the sun doesn't rise at all": which is why I added "sort of."

That was a wise person for most and others a wimp and possible t*****r.

Which is why I said two ways of saying the same thing. The point was, words set a mental marker in the receiver that predjudices his mental track.
