The Idea That If You Don’t Like

I Don't Think The Folks In The Low-tax States Really Want To Go Into A Fairness Discussion. Residents Of Connecticut And New York Would Love To Remind Them How Much They Pay In Federal Taxes To Support Programs For Mississippi And South Dakota.

We Always Need To Remember That Behind Almost Every Great Moment In History, There Are Heroic People Doing Really Boring And Frustrating Things For A Prolonged Period Of Time.

There Are Competing Studies On How Much Crime Drops Or Doesn't Drop When There Are Strict Rules On Gun Possession And Sale. I Don't Think There's Any Question That New York City's Very Tough Laws Have Reduced Violence.

Now My Poor Hometown Is Being Castigated As The Center Of An Irs Scandal. Humble Workers At The Cincinnati Office Targeted Tea Party Groups And Other Conservative Organizations For Special Scrutiny When Those Groups Applied For Tax-exempt Status. There's No Conceivable Excuse For That. It Was Deeply, Deeply Wrong.

There Have Been Tons Of Politicians Who Were Slow To Accept Equal Rights When It Meant Changes In The Established Social Order. Many Eventually Came Around, Admitted They Were Wrong, And Were Forgiven. But The Ones Who Actively Choose Hate-mongering Don't Ever Get A Pass.
