The article had some issues, but largely encapsulates why I don't care for Shapiro. The man's entire argumentative style hinges on juvenile "gotcha" traps that don't represent his opposition fairly or accurately. (This is the exact same reason I can't stand the pundits on Fox, actually).

On a tangent, he's an advocate for the "socialized medicine is literally slavery" argument. I feel that, better than the article, embodies the weaknesses of Shapiro. His tendency to reduce ideas he doesnt like into irrelevant, ill-fitting, yet highly sensationalized analogies.
