"The fundamental problem of the political Left seems to be that the real world does not fit their preconceptions. Therefore they see the real world as what is wrong, and what needs to be changed, since apparently their preconceptions cannot be wrong."
Thomas Sowell
I've come back to read this quote a couple of times today, for I keep thinking of more examples that illustrate how true this is. One can't even discuss practical issues with someone who believes in the preconceptions of the left, for they dismiss any arguments. We have seen this repeatedly with the AGW crowd, for example; they simply cannot seriously address the fact that the facts don't support the theory.
