Amen, Filtherton. I just tried to start a discussion on one particular article and ideologues from both left and right either whined or attacked the article without reading it. That is not adult, political discourse in my opinion. Don't we need to start at a given proposition and debate it's merits with an open mind? Sounds grownup to me.
