Understood, but the adjectives aren't needed to make your point and how is anyone supposed to know where the "looney" line starts in your thinking? I feel the same way in referring to the right with derogatory labels. They only serve to further divide us as a people, and for me, make it less likely I'll continue reading, or worse take a good point seriously.
