Wing Nuts
While I lob grenades at the left wing-nuts in my own party, liberal Republican Adam Sullivan does the same thing to the kooks on the right. Good stuff at his Karmic Inquisition blog. Start here and just scroll down.

Fisking the wing-nuts of all stripes is a valuable public service, but the fact is that they and many of their supporters will never be convinced to be reasonable.
Posted by: Ben at September 30, 2003 06:59 PMWhile fighting the wing nuts is largely futile, reasoned discourse from the saner proponents of various ideologies is valuable. The point is to take back the debate from the fringes. The best way to do that (in the blogosphere anyway) is for reasonable bloggers to point out their saner ideological counterparts.
In other words: thanks for a good link Mr. Totten.
