Do Liberals Really Care About The ‘Human Condition’?

Jay Nordlinger over at the Corner offers this:
I’m grateful to both Walter Cronkite and Barbara Walters for something: They admitted, yes, the media are liberal, and a good thing, too. It has to be that way, they said. For — and this is Walters talking — journalism involves the “human condition,” and liberals care about the human condition. Unlike conservatives, who of course couldn’t give a rat’s a** about the human condition.
Beyond all of the whinging and finger pointing at conservatives, I’m stymied to come up with any evidence of such. How is it, exactly, that you ‘care about the human condition’, when you create bloated bureaucracies, disintegrating social services, and an unimaginable debt?
Seriously. Intent, while not counting for nothing, has to answer to results. If the theory fails to produce desirable results, then intellectual honesty dictates that the theory, not the results, go under the bus. The theoretical basis for the US Government hasn’t failed. Rather, the Progressive ‘Human Condition’ nonsense of the last century has proven a complete stinker.
I can think of a two-word phrase to offer these liberals, the second of which is “you“.
