Liberals say we should pander to international opinion and embrace those who disagree with us, but only if it affirms the liberal mantra. These self proclaimed progressives believe a conservative mindset should always be changed for progressive purposes because the liberal hymn is so pure it need not endure constructive dialog and, God forbid, the recognition of an error in judgment.
Liberals embrace change only when their professed intellectuals exume enlightened superior knowledge. Conservatives embrace change as it affirms wisdom. The knowledge of something furnishes no answers or conclusions, only theory. The reaction to knowledge should always embrace wisdom.
It does no harm to look within.
