Liberal hero: the coward.

First, let me state here that I am going to use some very broad generalizations that probably don’t describe many or possibly most liberals. Instead, I am going to take liberal philosophies to their logical conclusions, but to do so I will probably overstate the beliefs of many liberals. But I digress. As Scott McClellan begins his opportunist book tour, (I’m sure it’s pure coincidence this book is coming out in an election year less than 6 months prior to the election) the liberals are discovering their love for this no count nobody in their non-judgemental hearts. Liberals love this stuff. This is how a liberal would write a book. A negative book about a very unpopular president just months before an election. Talk about cojones. This is what passes as political courage in this Brave New World. This is the sort of courage Bill Maher will certainly laud, which congressmen who relish every opportunity to grill oil company CEOs will certainly admire, and every aspiring suicide bomber can respect. Am I crossing the line? Perhaps. But believe this: liberals love a coward. This is the result of the belief in major liberal doctrines like relativism and pragmatism. Make no mistake, the reason liberals pander so much is not because deep down they’re cowards. The reason liberals act with cowardice is because deep down they have nothing which they hold to. When you embrace both relativism and pragmatism there really is nothing worth fighting for, so the liberal takes the easy road. This is why there are so many opportunists among the liberal elite. Scavenging is preferrable to the risk of unpopularity.
