I have no problem with that, on either side of the aisle. I'm interested in reading things that people find persuasive.
But I will point out that your own post made no mention of the "loony as I am" subtext that you had in mind. Whereas Ty's prefaced the Saletan article with this: "I responded to this last night, but William Saletan has a piece in Slate today that captures what's disturbing about Bush's "steady convictions"."
Perhaps if he had added "to me" after disturbing it would have been more clearly what you describe but I just don't feel it was so far off.
