“One of the most commonly employed tactics in election campaigns and in the Culture War in general is name-calling. People and ideas are branded and dismissed summarily rather than being the target of reasoned argumentation. Yes, it's an ancient practice, a staple of American politics from the beginning, but venerable or not, name-calling is among the lowest substitutes for civilized discourse.
