"Every so often, I read something written by other people that I wish I had written.
For instance, Thomas Paine observed over two centuries ago: 'To argue with a man who has renounced the use and authority of reason, is like administering medicine to the dead.'
In 21 words, Paine perfectly summed up the frustration faced by a conservative every time he attempts to debate an issue with a liberal."

Like you, I wish I'd said that!!! I am going to quote Thomas Paine from now on when I HAVE to talk to a liberal!!
or, debating with the likes of John Boehner. It goes both ways (but I don't mean that in the homosexual context, because I know how that creeps you guys out.

Nice try.....but NO.
John Boehner uses facts in his discussion. Something that the Democrats run away from.
