The Conservative and Liberal Brain

[Don Corleone]

Well, Antiochus, perhaps you have a point. Personally, I've always had an issue with the "I don't agree with this, of course, but here it is... <insert disparaging article here>" style of posting that occurs from time to time in the Backroom.

Lemur normally posts at a much higher quality, and my comments of course were not meant to be taken literally. But if I came in and posted something ridiculous like....

"Well, of course, I don't support this 100%. There's some truths, but I find it stereotypes too much to be true. Even so, for discussions sake <link to article claiming that Sherpas are in fact a sub-human race>"...

Don't you think Nepalese backroom visitors might take issue not only with the article, but with me personally? Do you think my milque-toast disavowal prior to the link would soften the sting to them?

Holy cow! A conservative that knows that Sherpas live in Nepal.... call the museum, there's a rare specimen to be gathered... (and one that knows what museums are! Who'd have thought it?!)
