Re: no true scotch-liberal....

d: no, you said they weren't relevant since they happeneed a long time ago. and you said i was arguing in bad faith.

Yes, citing an example that you know full well is not relevant is a case of arguing in bad faith.

d: and you said any examples of liberal badness would just be obscure or tongue-in-cheek.

Yes, as unfair as it may seem to you, an obscure, tongue-in-cheeki invocation of secession among a small group of academics is not comparable to a dead-serious invocation of secession by a state governor before a cheering crowd.

d: and you accused me of babbbling.

You were.
