Alex back with another of his Conservativorama posts...

Anyone tried to make these themselves? It seems like it could be a fun project.

Alex, it's not whether or not I agree/disagree, it's this article has a clear agenda without making a well reasoned argument and I'm pretty sure you know that. It's not enlightening, informative, or neat. In fact it is corrosive to honest, well intentioned discussion. But keep defending it, it's good to know where the posters stand on things...
