Andrew Sullivan on Empiricism

Posted on | March 19, 2010 | 4 Comments

Irony Deficiency Syndrome:

“And the insistence on reality, on assessing problems empirically, and in proposing solutions is what we all need to get better at.”

After which observation, Sully returned to his usual métier — bashing Israel and ranting about Sarah Palin’s uterus.

    I don’t know why Sully is so anti-Semitic, but with regard to Sarah’s uterus, he’s just jealous.

    For a so called conservative and Christian, he seems more focused on defending every leftist move of Obama and the Democrats and bashing Christian[ists], conservatives, and of course Sarah Palin. And strangely, Jews. I do not know where that comes from, but maybe it is a British thing.

    But hey, I did not go to Harvard so maybe I just do not get that type of conservatism. Then again, Buckley did not get it either.
