Interesting to see that posted given it seems to have come out that he pretty well had to be talked out of abortion of what turned out to be his first child (I think it was the first child, apparently from yet another interview transcript)
And seeing the direction of this thread (Exactly the direction to be expected) Perhaps a good time to insert a quote I recently heard on the radio (Unfortunately I don't recall who it was or I would attribute it. "People have a habit of labouring under the misapprehension that insult is a good substitute for argument" I would add to that that people also commonly labour under the misapprehension that insult is a good amplifier of argument.
All you need to do is mention "Leftist" or "Rightist" or any of the stronger versions of the terms and your argument has fallen on it's face for me. If you need to preface your argument with reference to your perception of your perceived opponents political leanings then your argument can't be much good. To nick a phrase from a german pollie in response to Trump's recent complaint about Germans not buying enough American cars ("Build better cars") build yourself a better argument.
