This blog, like so many of the blogs and youtube videos in today's society, is one of political critique and a review of society. However, in these areas, there always seems to be a vast difference, not only in the views of either side, but in the types of arguments put forth by either side. The right is usually known for the unemotional, statistical and independent arguments, while those on the left are known for the charismatic, moral and emotional arguments. These stereotypes are rooted in the fact that most people on the right live in rural counties, come from more traditional backgrounds and, quite frankly, have more facts than the left and therefore use them. The liberal left come from academia, pop-culture and their spokespeople use morality and distorted facts to assert their point, while covering their inconsistencies with flowering speech and emotional tirades. Those of whom I speak are the "intellectuals," the educated, prominent figures of affluent backgrounds. They congregate in areas where their opinion is validated by nodding heads or book sales. The fact is, this association between the two political adversaries and their stereotypes seem like an even battle of the wits: statistics vs morality, common good vs individual responsibility, etc. This is in fact not the case. For conservatism truly wins on all fronts. There is a beautiful logic to being a conservative and a true morality of it. That is what this blog seeks to validate. Many of the posts will be intellectual analysis of common liberal arguments, and analysis and rebuttal of articles showing the fallacies of the left. I hope that all readers enjoy.
Sincerely,
Philip Anderson
