This is a very reasonable e-mail:

I consider myself liberal, but read the Corner on National Review to get a view from the other side. One thing that I’m consistently annoyed by is its contributors’ continued assertions that liberals deify Barack Obama. During the election, Obama was certainly held up as some sort of awe-inspiring demi-God (but imagine how Republicans would feel if they had spent 8 years in the political wilderness and suddenly had a viable candidate–would it be very different?). But since the election, most liberals have become fairly even-minded about Obama (yes, many Democrats including myself have voiced concerns about the spending in the economic stimulus package). Even NPR newscasters have begun voicing complaints. At this point, the supposed deification of Obama, from my point of view, exists primarily in the heads of Republican partisans. Rather than casting those on the other side as empty-headed sheep, wouldnt it be more conducive to begin an ACTUAL dialogue? Your values might be different than mine, but I dont distrust your intentions.
