The only way liberals can win the debate (new Huffington Post tactic)

The Huffington Post is trying out a new tactic in order to stifle political debate and silence the other side. Unlike other similar leftie attempts, it doesn't involve violence or coersion. In fact, those who choose to remain silent will do so voluntarily.

For the preview of this tactic, see this HuffPo post. Note that that author is just 14 years old. What sort of a-hole is going to tell a 14-year-old that he's completely wrong? Just how bad would someone look if they did that?

There is no other conclusion I can come to other than that the HuffPost is doing this intentionally in order to stifle debate.

Yes, you are correct: this is about the relatively non-controversial topic of Dodgers baseball. However, expect them to broaden this technique to other, more controversial fields.

And, note that the poster's last name is "Reiner". Does anyone know any washed-up actors with that same name?

Gosh, do you think he could be related to someone? Further, note that one of the contributors there is Stephen Kaus, who happens to be the brother of another Kaus.

Visiting the HuffPost is giving me an uncomfortable feeling that I've just barged into someone's living room. In Brentwood, of course.
