Apparently you have debated with RV long enough to know the history and tactics he relies on in his attempts to persuade. I agree!!
RV is great at assuming facts not in evidence, combining objective with subjective material, drawing conclusions based on air then piously brow beating folks that he considers ignorant Republicans who do not agree. He does not appear to be interested in sharing ideas, learning facts about situations or changing his mind.....even when proven wrong. He has proven himself to be great at "crawdadding"....indeed. (wish I could learn how to multiple quote!!):biggrin:

I don't think of RV as a liberal. I like to debate liberals. I like to debate conservatives, too. Many times I find out facts of which I was not aware, or at least hear about a different view points slanted perspectives, etc. I believe those are the kinds of things that help one to grow as a person.

Bottom line is RV is not a liberal, as he likes to define himself....RV is nothing more than a pious bully. No exchange of ideas welcomed there...agree with RV or forever be damned.
