"Why Are Liberals So Condescending?"


Last week I shared with you,
“Seven Flaws in the way Liberals Think.”

 

This week, I recommend, “Why Are Liberals So Condescending?”

Here’s an excerpt:

American liberals, to a degree far surpassing conservatives, appear committed to the proposition that their views are correct, self-evident, and based on fact and reason, while conservative positions are not just wrong but illegitimate, ideological and unworthy of serious consideration. Indeed, all the appeals to bipartisanship notwithstanding, President Obama and other leading liberal voices have joined in a chorus of intellectual condescension. It's an odd time for liberals to feel smug. But even with Democratic fortunes on the wane, leading liberals insist that they have almost nothing to learn from conservatives.”

Here's the entire piece filled with exceptional, intellectual historical context.
