I mean it’s easy to just look at someone different than you and shrug them off. And frankly I think that’s why I am not a conservative. I think conservatives too often don’t look at those different from them whether that’s in class, race, religion, or sexuality. I think that really is one of liberalism’s virtues that a liberal by and large can see a man or woman who comes from a totally different walk of life than him and at the least try to understand his story. I may not know what it’s like to be a black young man from the inner city but I like to think I am at least able to try to understand his situation. And so I am clear I am not saying conservatives are uncaring people as a whole, I just think one of conservatism’s weakness as an ideology is that it doesn’t think about those who aren’t in a different boat which is something I’ve seen with the right’ reaction to SSM and the health care decision.
