Edited on Sun Feb-11-07 10:46 AM by Bombtrack
2 people I'm watching now are in deep disagreement but I have great respect for both. Not something I see alot on tv.

Reza Aslan and Sam Harris are the 2 I'm talking about BTW.

both Sam and Reza are very googlable. They're both very astute and articulate intellectuals, sam being the leading crusdader the logical, consistant secular movement.

4. Sam Harris: "liberals are soft on terrorism"
Edited on Sun Feb-11-07 12:04 PM by bananas
He sounds like a neo-con:
On questions of national security, I am now as wary of my fellow liberals as I am of the religious demagogues on the Christian right. This may seem like frank acquiescence to the charge that "liberals are soft on terrorism." It is, and they are.

Sam Harris article entitled "Head-in-the-Sand Liberals"
