I want to marry Auntie Pinko... |
|
...or at least have her love child.
"Incidentally, this goes just as strongly for the lefties who say the word 'conservative' dripping with ignorant contempt. Conservatism is a perfectly valid - and valuable - ideology that makes an important contribution to a thoughtful public debate and the evolution of public policy. No good purpose is served by reducing these perfectly useful and neutral words to the status of name-calling."
This is something I've been saying forever. Most of the time I get laughed at, derided, and otherwise told that I am foolish and stupid. I am so glad to see someone else, with a "louder voice" saying this. So often AP give a nice well reasoned, moderate toned, liberal perspective that is absent of reactionary rhetoric and partisan bull. I wish we had more voices like hers on our side, adn at least one of them running for office.

I'd dearly love to sit down with her over a cuppa tea!

2. Auntie Pinko is already married |
|
or at least has a steady significant other.
No, I'm not Auntie Pinko, but I'm 99% sure that I know who is--an oldtime poster who hardly ever shows up under her screen name anymore.

3. *major big stuck out lip pout* |

Darn! Now I'm really bummed.
;-)
Seriously though, it isn't often you can find a liberal writer who, when you take them to your conservative opposition, they say "yes, that's a very good point".
