Debating with liberals…still

Ok, I can’t say that this person is necessarily “liberal” but a proud Democrat to be sure. So this exchange can qualify under the heading.

This is a short exchange between two individuals from diametrically opposite sides of the political sphere. I’m referring to it here on my own blog, for my millions* of readers, to show a great example of how political debate should be in America: well-reasoned, courteous, even spirited at times, but ultimately respectful even when we disagree and aren’t likely to ever see eye to eye, such as the case here.

I don’t agree with Chris at all, but as a result of this exchange, I have to say that I like him (as much as can be expected considering I don’t really know him and don’t agree with him). I’ve had my share of heated exchanges with irrational liberals (see previous posts to that effect), and as fun as it is to really mix it up, I can’t help but prefer conversation like this.

* for the purposes of this post the term “millions” shall be construed to mean “two” or less.
