Over at American Thinker I found a great article on talking to Liberals. It really opened my eyes because I am one who likes facts and likes to parade facts as the foundation of my opinions (not that I am as totally objective as I’d like to pretend.). I confess that this has made me more polemical* than not, which is not helpful. The article certainly helped me see the error of my ways (by giving me facts!) and outlined an alternative way of talking to people who inhabit a political space further to the Left than my own.
* A polemic is an argument that sheds more heat than light.
