Of course, I am just guessing because Enigma rarely makes any kind of clear point. Evidently conservatives are so far beneath him that their opinions do not warrant his consideration or comment. It's a pity that the rest of us are too biased or ignorant to understand his opinions, otherwise he might take the time.

What I think he fails to understand is the objection to government officials(especially democratic ones, being "for the people" and all) being treated like royalty. But I really wouldn't know. All I have to go on is his occasional one-liners, and one post where he responded with an actual opinion because I accused him of the same thing he is doing now.

It goes with the position.
Enigma, if you want to make succinct arguments, can't they be more like this? This argument actually has a point besides simply assuming that conservatives are stupid. A beneficial discussion could be built on it.
I've yet to meet the person who questioned their own judgements because someone called them an idiot.
