Extremes and Reality
This is a nice essay about the word games people play to demonize their opposition. A simple example... you take Michael Moore, or Roy Moore, you use him as an archetype and then apply that to 50 million people. The author puts it best.
It applies to any ideology and its detractors.

hi jjayson... yep... I check it... but sometimes I forget for a few days (actually prone to that with my regular email too)...
I'll check it.
jjayson,
I didn't see it.
I checked the "junk" folder where hotmail likes to put stuff... but didn't see it there either. Did a search, didn't find it.
Was it to "micronopoly@hotmail.com"?
ok, I got it.... didn't read it yet! I'll get back to you.
Thanks for posting this link. It was excellent reading and very thoughtfully deconstructs the absurdity of this type of rhetoric.
