that's my problem as well.
It's like saying "I give up my right to be critical and evaluate something on its merits because it was done by someone else I was told I should trust."
NEVER give away those rights and responsibilities.
"I give up my right to be critical and evaluate something on its merits because it was done by someone else I was told I should trust."
How do they reconcile that with conservatism? Isn't conservatism (particularly it's judicial philosophy) all about independent reasoning and objective/critical thinking? This is not consevatism... it's blind followership. I strongly recommend that everyone watch "A Man for all Seasons" if they have never seen it, as I think it pertains to this situation.
