There is a 3rd option when dealing with liberals...it can be summed up in two words--scorched Earth.
I coined the term "ideological bigotry" to describe a hatred of people simply for being conservatives or republicans. The word "bigot" stings, and should be used very carefully. Being liberal does not automatically make one a bigot. However, when I hear ideological bigotry, I simply tell them what they are, and watch them stammer. They are so used to dishing it out, but decking the bully between the eyes, etc, etc.
Also, when they bring up Hitler I say, "Hitler tried to kill my dad." That shuts them up quickly.
I am polite, but not delicate. I am a battering ram, and it works.
I am contacting conservative bloggers around the country since I am one as
well. I hope this email is not an intrusion.
