Facts not only do not matter to liberals, but they willfully reject them. Knowledge often requires action. Liberals do not want to know, for example, what Obama means by “change;” for if they knew, they would be required to act contrary to their baser, sensual nature.

Knowledge of the facts not only requires action, but often obedience. And that’s the true rub for liberals. “For him who knows to do right but does it not, to him it is sin.”

[T]he country does not deserve to be put in the hands of a glib and cocky know-it-all, who has accomplished absolutely nothing beyond the advancement of his own career with rhetoric, and who has for years allied himself with a succession of people who have openly expressed their hatred of America.
