indeed, the suicidal squabbling among my colleagues about the politically correct procedures to keep bullies off girls and women already in big trouble -- that is to say the strategy bullshit among the prochoice people -- was the most loathsome part of the experience. the pro-life people understood strategy far better and always thoughtfully said thank you to me, and i to them, after a respectful dialogue. often it was me, saying very gently, you can represent your views better elsewhere. here, it looks to me like you're intimidating and harassing women and girls, which no person of good conscience would wish to do. i know you are a person of good conscience etc ect.
i think there's a lot of class war arrogance in the demonization of the tea baggers, and that is yet another suicidal liberal attitude.
