As part of the Blog Focus Feature, I couldn’t resist posting this from Reaganite Republican.
A Plague of Incurious, Liberal Know-it-Alls
Does it ever occur to them that there might be a reason for the things other people do?
Richard Pecore has an illuminating and insightful piece in America Thinker today- sure applies to my personal journey and long-evolving political philosophy, and I’m sure some of this will sound mightily familiar to you…some excerpts (highlights mine):
Liberals feel compelled to tell us they know better, without ever asking a question. They do so without giving a second thought to why Conservatives might disagree or believe as we do. They do so without investigating whether our belief system might even be a better fit for them.
Having digested their entire belief system based upon liberal schooling and maintained their slanted viewpoint with liberal media, the idea that their own ideas could be misguided has never occurred to them. Their liberal mindset precludes that possibility because their entire ego is tied up in it. If their ideas are wrong then they are wrong and their words have no value. Questioning their own value system therefore, usually elicits anger or violence from them.

I believe that future generations should have the same opportunities that myself, and those that came before me, had. My parents taught me that I could do anything I wanted to do. I don’t want to have to tell my daughter, “You can do whatever the government tells you to do.” We are at a crossroads in this country; are we going to be free, or are we going to be slaves to the nanny state. I choose freedom.

Thank you kindly, Matt
You know- a lot of that sounded familiar to me, too… I don’t know why someone wouldn’t examine both sides unless they think reality and self awareness won’t serve there purposes for some reason.
Stubborness = Stupidity
over the long run, anyway…
