Post blogger Mitch Mulhall embraces a political dialogue that eschews the extremities. “The trouble with politics, which is to say ‘towing a party line,’” he blogs in comment #3, “is that it commits you to a platform of unsupportable generalities. Abortion is right, even when adoption would clearly be a better choice for every life involved. Nuclear energy is wrong, even when the two petroleum-powered automobiles in every garage make us beholden to a culture that won’t let a woman drive, let alone vote. Stem cell research is wrong, even when the prospects for effective medical treatments for victims of a host of conditions are great… The list goes on and on and on.”
