Though I disagree with him, I think this is a very well written piece that showcases a different side of the political argument. It was a pleasant surprise for me that it was written by not just any conservative but one whose name I already knew.
- a_j_b 10y agoAgreed. My one concern is that he continues to make continual reference to conservatives vs liberals (a very "us-vs-them" mentality), which is so endemic and harmful to the US political landscape. Politics is, by it's very nature, the game of compromise and by telling conservatives to put people into categories doesn't really help that. If politicians refuse to play the game of compromise then the political system becomes extremely ineffective (i.e. what we have at the moment with Republican obstructionism)
