It has been my experience that no one political ideology aside from sincerity and integrity, (if you can speak of sincerity and integrity in political discourse without laughing/crying,) could be definitively ascribed to this publication or any of the contributors. It has also been my personal experience that if I have a feeling that a something I want to say is going to be ravaged, it’s because I haven’t done the necessary due diligence to be able to back up my opinion. You may or may not remember, but TI did a few interesting pieces a while back about high school kids debating national security issues and debating in general, i’d paste the links, but can’t/don’t know how LOL.
