I found it interesting.

1. I find him too relativist

Wouldn't quite admit that "facts have a liberal bias". Still trying to say both sides are logically consistent given their values.

When one side is denying evolution, global warming, peak oil, giving rights to clumps of cells but not to people of differing ethnicity or religion, that's not based on a value system, it's a delusion. He needs to bring in a clinical psychologist, one experienced in ridding patients of their delusions to bring his work to fruition. It's one thing to understand what motivates the right, but when they have run the country into a problem of their own making, they have to be made to let go of their values that are the direct cause of the problem -- like "deregulation".

We can't just agree to disagree, any more that we can agree with a flat tire and say "oh well, since you want to be flat, we'll have to see how the car drives with air in just three tires".
