Fair request from a reader:

Dear Jonah,
I’m pretty Liberal, but I enjoy your writing and respect your intelligence
(okay – especially the BSG bits, but the rest too!) Perhaps it’s that very
respect that causes me such irritation when you insist on posting emails
from foul-mouthed, illiterate, illiberal Liberal readers as though you’re
making an important point. As the author of an extremely minor (< 5000 hits
per day) Liberal blog, I’m here to tell you that this problem isn’t
restricted to Liberals – I receive at least a dozen hateful and poorly
written attacks every week from Conservatives who think I should be shot for
my (relatively moderate, IMO) expressed views. And yeah – they frequently
use curse words, shoddy grammar and ALL CAPS to inform me so.
I’d suggest that if a man may be fairly appraised by the quality of the
things he opposes, you’d serve yourself better by exposing only the more
accomplished of your opponents.
