They don't come more liberal or more elite than this fellow:
Yes, this is Dr. Paul Krugman who wrote the book The Conscience of a Liberal and won the Nobel Prize in economics.
But even Dr. Krugman understands a fundamental truth or two:
And after watching a series of scandals unfold, I’ve come to the conclusion that the liberal reaction — that the hypocrisy of the moralizers undermines their cause — just doesn’t come to grips with the conservative worldview.
From their point of view the cause, the need to police what people do in bed, is, by definition, right, because it’s literally God-given. So the fact that some of those trying to police what other people do in bed are themselves doing nasty things does not reflect on the cause itself — on the contrary, it shows just how necessary more bed-snooping is.
(emphasis mine)
He concludes:
So left is left and right is right, and never the twain shall meet.
Wow! For a liberal, that is very well said!
