Avanti - I agree with you.

I will admit there have been plenty of times here I’ve had to grit my teeth. It isn’t that I have any issues with right-idiocy being pointed out; it’s that it is so very painful for me to watch, and I just have a hard time jumping in and adding to it, it seems disloyal somehow. But I am grateful for the information, nonetheless, and especially to Killgore’s constant “tea party” revelations.

Hey, I get that, I see some of it on the left. i.e., although I think some of the stuff about Acorn is over the top, I’m so embarrassed by what I’ve seen, that I’m not in the mood to attempt a defense of the organization. They do some good work, perhaps discussing the corruption and mismanagement of ACORN will prompt a top to bottom house cleaning.
I feel the same way about the right. the basic concept of conservatism is sound, especially as a counter to going too liberal. Anything that weakens the right, is bad news for the country in the long run, since we need a balanced scale.
