Dr. Grump,
First of all I like your post and want you to know that. But I have a qualm with this:
"You know, the one thing that peeves me about Obama haters and neocons in general is that they live on sound bites. There is no substance to their argument. They think a throw away sentence from the likes of Beck, Rush, Hannity or O'Reilly is some intriguing insight, when all it is is a partisan, insipid few words with no hard data or research to back them up." Me
"Obama haters annd neocons." I never really understood the term neocon so I will simply admit my stupidity on that. But would like you to define "Obama hater" for me. I would not vote for the president for I think he has been a failure and we cannot take any more time with his agenda and administration than we have to. Does the make me an Obama hater? I think he is a lovely man and would welcome him and family as neighbors. Just not the leader of our country.
So I would assume I am bunched in with an entire group of people that have no substance to my arguments, use throw away sentences I've heard from conservatives with no hard data to back my thoughts or arguments.
No you didn't say this, but I am left to assume, that those who's arguments you agree with, you have no problems with their arguments and you see no faults with their limited language skills, data and and sometimes less than thought out issues, as exemplified by the OWS.
I'm just thinking that this bias you have may actually be more on target on an individual basis rather than a group of people and on both sides of the aisle..
