Yes, Marc, I'm simply offering up "leftist spin" when I actually offer substantive points to counter your generalities, misconceptions, and lies. You caught me! And later in the day, I'll surely head to Cambridge, hang out among the beret-wearing Marxists in Harvard Square, and shed a tear for the vanquished dreams of Peru's Shining Path. You can't recognize a moderate when you read his views.

You don't have the ability to really offer up any meaningful rebuttal to any of the points I've made. You just label me. But you really do serve a purpose when posting here, Marc. You truly illustrate what decent people and truth-seekers of all political stripes are up against: an emotionally-charged, fear-driven, highly ignorant (no offense, but so much reality-based information eludes you) group.

You're immune to facts, thoroughly in the grip of the backfire effect. But even worse, your core values aren't there. There's nothing I can offer that can counter that deficiency.

I'll leave you with one final bit of leftist spin. Your state, and mine, are in the grips of an opioid epidemic that is destroying many of our fellow citizens. If President Trump really, genuinely cared about solving this problem, would he really have put this kid in a leadership role?
