Michael Barone is referring to the pseudo-liberals in his list of "liberals" who can't handle an argument. Too many of them refuse to listen to anything that challenges their preconceived notions. Too many try to stifle other voices.
A reminder: Being a Democrat is not the same as being a liberal. Anyone who shuts out facts and and shuts down debate is only pretending to advance the democratic process. The practice looks worst on those who claim a liberal tolerance for diversity and a dedication to enlightenment.
So cut out the narrow-mindedness. Listen harder. Get real. Get something good done.
