politically speaking

I am starting to resent the lack of any discussion amongst the pundits. I listened to Stephanie Miller on AirAmerica radio this morning for awhile and I am convinced that I would be unable to have a conversation with her.
Her sidekick (don't know his name) laughed at the President for saying that Democrats were "genetically disposed" to something, tax increases, I think. He said that it should be "pre-disposed" and isn't George Bush an idiot for not knowing the proper grammatical usage! Ha-Ha-Ha!!!.
Well, of course, Mr. Sidekick obviously doesn't know much about grammar. "disposed" means 'Having or showing a tendency or likelihood' (Houghton-Miflin Thesaurus). "Pre-disposed" then, means having a prior tendency. "Genetically disposed" means having a genetic tendency or likelihood. "Genetically pre-disposed" means having a prior genetic tendency. What is prior to a genetic tendency? It's a redundant adjective. Tortured use of the language.
But the truth is that I could not care less about his misuse of the English language. It was his superior attitude that he knew the answer and President Bush was just an idiot who was beneath contempt.
I wondered whether I, as a conservative, could have any kind of conversation or discussion with Miller and/or sidekick. I thought not. If I want to discuss abortion rights with them, I am confident that they would just accuse me of being a right wing fanatic nut job for thinking that abortion might not be the best way to deal with an unwanted pregnancy. I don't feel like I could call them and talk to them about it. Their positions are as dogmatic and religious as any on the right.
