As usual, someone has found a much clever, MUCH shorter way of demonstrating my recent LENGTHY point regarding the deteriorating state of political discussion:
From The Volokh Conspiracy:
RED: I sure like apples.
BLUE: Apples? They're rotten. Oranges are better.
RED: Are you insane? Oranges are disasters.
BLUE: At least oranges aren't corrupt fruits that hate America.
RED: Yes they are, in fact Hitler liked oranges!
BLUE: WTF? Hitler was an apple.
(Do yourself a favor and read the whole thread - the comments are actually pretty funny in this one.)
