No Difference Between Romney and Obama?

Escaping the Cave: Both sides employ shallow sentimentalities in their arguments thereby demeaning the intellect of both their supporters and their detractors as they attempt to garner support by manipulating emotions rather than encouraging free intellectual assent (the medical community calls this patient autonomy). What is sinister about this is the fact that we actually think we are appealing to reason when we do this. 

. . . The deeper moral issue even before you get to the abortion question is, "What is a human being?" That question and that question alone informs all our actions and interactions with other human beings (also known as ethics). Do we differ on the question of man? For there to be such a divide as the one America and the rest of the modern world are experiencing that answer is, "Yes."
