Bill's Message of the Day
Tuesday, October 20
First, a couple of general points. There is far too much political hatred in the USA. It’s foolish. We should be far beyond the Alexander Hamilton-Aaron Burr cycle. But we’re not.
I mean, who cares if someone is conservative or liberal? That’s a civil right. The important thing is how you present yourself. If you’re an arrogant deceiver, scorn is in context. But sincere beliefs should be respected unless violence is attached to them. The Nazis were true believers. However, there’s no room for destruction in advancing your cause.
My job is to call out deceit in a fact-based way. My target in this column is New York Times columnist Tom Friedman. Sorry, Tom, but you deserve it.
