Political Left & Political Right Wage a Modern-Day Civil War For America's Soul

I can say I have more conservative than liberal values, but I do have some values that would be considered liberal. I agree wholeheartedly that their is a rift in America right now between Liberal ideology and conservative ideology. A rift which is fed by the mentality that you are either all in, or you are out. The media certainly hasn't helped in bridging the rift. It has served more to feed the rift than anything else. I disagree with the comparison between liberals and conservatives when it comes to the Bill of Rights. I think both sides have a tendency to look at it as natural law, until they disagree with how it is being used. That needs to be the first bridge to mending the rift. It has to be reconciled that the Bill of Rights is either Natural Law that cannot and more importantly should not be subject to arbitrary interpretation and repeal, or it is not, and they are subject to the whims of populism. Personally I would prefer to be uncomfortable, and have them protected as opposed to being comfortable and having rights subject to half assed interpretation.
Overall it is an interesting article.
