When You Use the Last Resort, First, What Does That Say About You?

Democrats in Self-Destruct Mode XC

It's my pleasure to call to your attention that Rerum Novarum answers that significant question today:

.... I have long had a theory in political discourse that the other side of a dispute has run out of viable arguments when they resort to not only improper ad hominems but when they take it to the stage of what I call reductio ad hitlerum where they equate their opponents to the late Nazi spawn of satan himself. And in the election for 2004 — not even with one single primary being run yet — the kooks and whackjobs at moveon.org have done just that....

Read it all, Faithful Reader, and make sure you don't miss the conclusion.
