    "The default position of liberals who cannot debate a topic is that their opponents are liars."

    Geez, let's see...why in the world would liberals ever call conservatives liars? After all, Iraq had WMD, the Iraqi people were going to welcome US troops with flowers, the cosmos is 5000 years old, financial markets regulate themselves and don't need the government to help them when they mess up, the free market is God and government is evil, yes, why in the world would we ever call you liars?!
