Flaming Liberals

Elder uses many "they say" arguments to present the Liberal view, but he does so in a way that makes Liberals seem idiotic and slightly insane. Instead of calling them insane himself, he lets the liberals speak for themselves. He starts out with telling the opinions of proffessional liberals, and gradually works his way down to include everyone. "They say" president Bush is evil, which progresses into the liberal belief that conservatives are Nazis. Elder makes it clear that this closed mindset has gone too far when he gives the example of his barber, who blames president Bush for 9/11, and says that Washington D.C. is involved in some conspiracy to murder Americans. At this point, Elder does not even have to insult the Liberals, because they have already said enough.
