What the Heck Was This Guy Thinking?

Illinois Nazis? I HATE Illinois Nazis.

Always the contrarian, I think the Congressman exemplifies a serious dilemma.

If someone believes in the power of words as a tool to bring about a particular change, at what point do you decide that the audience is hopeless? Missionaries don't pick their audiences from the already converted or those presentable in polite society; they just want to spread the Word, whereever and to whomever.

Couldn't this be seen as a case of reaching across a very wide aisle?

Lefties on this lefty site have a smash shot offered to them and they whiff! [snicker]

Tully -- that place was a Klan stronghold in the past, don't forget.

And don't forget: "Hoosier daddy?" (as people in, say, St. Louis, ask)

"Always the contrarian, I think the Congressman exemplifies a serious dilemma."

Fortunately for just about everyone, he's not yet a Congressman, just another wannabe who manages to qualify for the primary ballot.

Tully,

You are agreeing, then, that the Congressman wannabe poses no immediate trhreat.

He does provide, however, the germ for an interesting conversation about 'appropraite' audiences, barbers, secual partners , and bases for denouncement of politicians.

When conversations consist merely of conclusions, they cease to be thought-provoking or even interesting.
