Why should I care what the world's lefties think of our Prez? (David Brooks, a conservative? LOL!).

The same reason you should, in general, care about others besides yourself.

But I don't think it's in you to do that, actually.

That's not the question. The question was - why should I care about how the world's lefties feel about the Prez?

Generally, no, I don't spend much time worrying about how other folks feel about me. I'll leave that kind of self-indulgent navel-gazing to folks like you.

Dondillion, play along with me for a second. Here's an example of an opinion survey question: "Agree or disagree: children must be spanked sometimes or they never learn to discipline themselves."

How would you answer that one?

Being a survey, his answer is none of your business.

Wasn't talking to you, and you shouldn't speak for him.

That said, I fear that is going to be his attitude. I was asking out of out of scientific curiosity, but I fear he thought it was a some sort of setup.

Being an open forum, I'm pretty sure who you're talking to is irrelevant. In addition, I wasn't speaking for Don, but did enjoy your chastisment.

Regarding your scientific curiosity ...

"On Point" Dondillion?
