Caller: "You're telling me that air conditioning is moral?!"

"You're telling me that rich people who have air conditioning are moral."

Yah, well, this is one of the finest examples of a liberal nitwit who refuses to hear ONE SINGLE THING you've said for what you've said, but tries to tie you in knots with red herring after red herring. You started to fall for it, answering his silly statements (more like accusations, really, which is why you fall for it, defending what you've said or trying to straighten the poor fool out).

If you go to youtube and look for names like Chris Matthews paired with any conservative name, the video will often be placed there to show how "Chris Matthews rakes Condoleeza Rice over the coals" and yet the video is of the liberal named in the title, doing exactly the same thing, demonstrating himself to be confused and without a case, but he twists the guest's words and restates them, thinking he's "exposing" the guest as a fool, when to anyone who is precise with thought, debate, reason, and logic, the host is the fool, and the sneering respondents are the dupes.

Obama: "On the Republican side, this is the Holy Grail, these tax cuts for the rich"

I'm sorry, I truly do not like summing up an opposing politician or even just an opposing point of view with one ugly ad hominem thrown at someone with the intent of dismissing everything that he said in the past, says now, or will say in the future.

The sad fact is that so many democrats have no such constraint whatsoever. Not all of them; for example, the delightful Juan Williams has never tried to pull this stunt. But it forms such an essential part of democrat argument that it is somewhat legitimate to lump them as a group and then address the delightful exceptions as exceptions.

This caller supplies: in their mind, it cannot be that someone who is educated, intelligent, and good can also believe any conservative position. So when discussing this stuff, this caller asks the democrat, "So which am I, mean, uneducated, unintelligent, or evil?" and says the reply always comes back as, "Oh, you're not like that, you're the exception."

Maybe we need to ask our friends that question more often.
