to me it seems like those who over use these terms resort to categorizing people in place of thinking about the actual issue. i wonder if they realize these terms are often an inaccurate description of a person's views and assume people are incapable of objectively considering other ideas? @u.

alas, it's my opinion that those who fall back on these terms excessively are either intellectually challenged or mental midgets. for them it seems it's easier to resort to name calling/insults and arguing over opinion instead of discussing the facts for what they are. i'm not saying you should stop...i like having an easy way to identify ya'll.



Fine, I'll stop calling you a liberal. I have no problem settling on calling you a pinhead.
