Iowa Liberal

Iowa has some new village idiots.

Key argument over at the Coralville Courier: “You stupid liberals need to learn about reason and stop spewing your dishonest crap!”

Now if you said to yourself, “Whoa, hardcore rightwingers there…what are the chances they are irrational and dishonest in their arguments?” then you’d be on the right trail. Mike and I try pointing out, as is per usual with hardcore rightwingers, some basic elementary facts that completely annihilate their claims. We are essentially called poopyheads in return, and treated to repetition of the same thing over and over again, instead of coherent responses. Naturally, we are informed that WE aren’t listening.

This will get you somewhat far in Palin-land, but come on, guys. There are standards of reason. You can’t just make it up as you go along.

Or, rather, living wills, i.e. advance directives on end-of-life treatment.

Of course. People like these never actually believe what they’re talking about. They’re political hacks. “HAVE YOU READ THE BILL!?!?! No? Good, then we will make shit up continuously.”
