My regular debating adversary Vic has taken me to task for my blanket critiques of the GOP and the Tea Party in an email today. (as though I were a cop asking anyone with an accent for their birth certificate) Fair enough. His email:
Harry:
The latest from http://www.lincolndemocrat.com/.
“and just who is the “Tea Party?”? Some people put themselves in boxes, and some people put — or want to put — other people in boxes. Ugh.
“Republican Dogma”? Do you also have a category labeled “Democratic Dogma”? How big of you.
“and the GOP hates regulation” As if the Democratic Party doesn’t hate regulation that is contrary to its interests? What? There are no conceivable regulations that are contrary to Democratic Party interests?
Vic
Here’s my reply:
Aw Vic,
These comments of mine are like complaints about the weather. Do you expect me to add “but we can really use the rain” every time I complain that my picnic has been rained out?
Harry
