Dan,
"It all boils down to this - I'm right, everyone else is wrong, and anyone who disputes this is clearly a dumbfuck"

Stam,
Don't get your panties in a wad. My post was clearly a chide. However when you say that you have equal contempt for both liberals and conservatives I can only wonder if you have an understanding of the concepts, or if you are apolitical? And any thinking person, even a apolitical person would have views which could be considered more or less either liberal or conservative. Perhaps you were referring to Ideologues.
