Actually I did not call Wirt a liberal, which might be considered
gracious as he has in the past used a round about method to call me a
Nazi, I said the tactic he employed in responding to the post was a
common tactic used by liberals.

I also never claimed to be a compassionate conservative, I have yet to
hear anyone rationally explain what that is but as near as I can tell it
is a big government Republican, I am an anti-liberal.

I have no doubt of Wirt's intelligence and have a great deal of respect
for what he has accomplished over the years. But that does not mean I
must agree with his ideas on social issues or grovel in gratitude as he
imparts his pearls of wisdom on the subject.

Obviously we both feel strongly about our points of view but I do try
not to sink to a level of personal insults or attacks. 

Comments are my own, not my employer's... Etc.
