Truer words have not been spoken. Been saying the same for years. The Left is ideological and intellectually lazy.
Exactly...they are ideologically and intellectually lazy because leftism not only allows it, it requires it.
If those people on the Left had to honestly confront the obvious and apparent dichotomies in their belief system the same way that we as conservatives have to on a daily basis (and we have to address them when we find them) they would only have two choices: Change their views, or have the cognitive dissonance drive them stark raving mad.
Unfortunately, the choice #2 is the most common one, which is why many of us believe Leftism is a mental disorder.
