Most of his Liberal arguments were lame at best. He should of made an intelligent point on the Liberal side of things to be truly clever.
But that would be unrealistic and tip the reader off that the point was not made by a leftist.
And yes, that would be an interesting experiment to try. I'll bet it would be difficult for people on both sides to step outside their shell and argue the other side intelligently.
One side is based on a rational and intelligent analysis of events and factors, and the other side is the left.
I could do it. I could make the argument for the liberal side using conservative statements.
For example:
Unemployment. I would argue, correctly, that our businesses are better off with most of the unemployed being paid to stay at home. You see, most of the unemployed actually slow everyone down at work. Thus paying them to stay home is a net increase in productivity.
