He says that “liberals allow personality, emotions and feelings to take precedence over issues, substance and policy.” And that’s what the talk show hosts are doing doing here.Ugh! I don’t listen to this guy but if I did, this would cause me to stop! This type of thing really ticks me off because it’s really insulting and it belittles your opponent’s position (poisoning the well).Tell me how these are conservative positions:He opposed tax cuts because the favored the wealthy.He limited political speech 30 days before an election.He supported amnesty for illegal aliens (yeah, it was amnesty).He refuses to drill in ANWR even though are oil money goes to states that bred terrorists.He supports federal funding of embryonic stem cell research.He proposed to limit the greenhouse gas emissions from the electricity generation, transportation, industrial, and commercial economic sectors which would have increased the cost of these services significantly.BTW, if a huge chunk of the conservative media is calling McCain a liberal, you might want to start asking yourself why. If you are the only conservative supporting him, maybe you don’t understand conservatism.(via)Update: More for Joe Scarborough. (via)
