For those of you who don’t know, yet:
“Reasoned discourse” and ‘Civility” mean ‘Shut the hell up, conservatives, and let us intelligentsia, who know better than you, shove our agenda down your throat unchallenged”
Remember my dream? remember what I said about the morons of society?
The thing the left fears most is the truth. Not the minitrue that they spew day in and day out; the actual truth.
Vonnegut describes “Chrono synclastic infundibulum” in “Sirens of Titan”as “those places … where all the different kinds of truths fit together.” Vonnegut believed (there’s that word again) that the truths the left “believe” and actual truth can coexist.
They cannot. Noplace, no time. There is only truth, and not truth. The marching morons make up their own truths to serve their purposes, and disavow the real truth.
The light of day shines upon the manufactured truth of the marching morons, and dissipates them like so much fog.
That is your strongest weapon, and the one which nobody but the left can be upset that you use; the plain, unvarnished truth.
the left will call for your head, because they dislike your truth, and scream foul when it hits them. Keep at it. The light of day is the very best disinfectant.

Will they understand the truth, or take my head anyway?
Were it true, that the mere exposure to the truth would “dissipate them like so much fog”, I would rejoice.
I’ll take measure to protect mine, in any case.
it’s not the mere exposure that makes it go away, but hundreds of thousands or millions shining the spotlight of truth on the fog of lies. Witness the whole Arizona/Palin/Limbaugh thing.
I don’t have all the answers, I don’t even have all the questions. I do at least realize that the wrongheaded idiots who disagree with me manage to do something useful once in a while. Sometimes they make me think.
Anyone who tries to shut up their critics as hard as the left does, either realizes deep down that their critics are right, or hates thinking because it makes their brain hurt.
