You can disagree with their views all you want, but the fact that someone has different priorities than you doesn't make them dumb and irrational and you smart and rational.
I am not one who thinks there is a problem with partisanship qua partisanship, à la Broder. At the same time, I hate the culture war and how it divides Americans who have much in common, in terms of economic issues, civil rights etc.
Yeah, there's narrowness and stupidity all around us, but there's also honest disagreements, and people just trying to live their lives. I'd like it if we could all (also talking to myself here) remember that more.
