Comment on What fundamentally divides Liberal and Conservative? by dcbarton

“Liberals will (except for core values like freedom) only take moral intuitions seriously if it can be articulated with reason, logic and evident.”
These would be the same “morals” that tell a Liberal that it is better to murder an innocent baby prior to birth rather than having the responsibility to prevent an unwanted pregnancy to begin with? Or maybe the same morals that convinced Obama to argue for leaving babies that survive the attempted abortions to die unattended in a broom closet while he was a state senator in Illinois? Maybe you are referring to the morals that allow the Democrats to include mandated “duty to die” education in the health care reform bill (Section 1233) until they got caught and had to modify it to not read mandated? Or the morals that led to Zeke Emanual’s complete life theory, the one that says children under three years old and elderly people over 50 aren’t worthy of the same health care that other people deserve? Or the same Zeke Emanual’s idea that people over 65 shouldn’t be guaranteed healthcare? Or maybe you meant the morals that allowed Obama to say that when “Grandma needs a pacemaker, what she needs is a painpill”? Would those be the morals you are talking about?

my bad for not clarifying what are the definition of “liberal” and “conservative” intended by Clarke. I dont think can explain it properly in a span of an appropriate blog comment, but i will give it a try.

Liberals will (except for core values like freedom) only take moral intuitions seriously if it can be articulated with reason, logic and evident.

Conservatives are more incline to accept their moral intuition even if it cannot be articulated, because they believes that some moral intuition are tacit and cannot put into words. (i also think that this view infers that conservatives believes that rational analysis is not applicable to everything).

Clarke is not using “liberal” and “conservative” as a short hand for US’s Democrats and Republicans. And there are indeed “liberal” and “conservative” in both parties.

you comment on the difference of liberal and conservative doesn’t really apply to Clarke’s understanding of the two concept. Your comments are more akin to typical Republican critique of Democrats.

some films are just not specifically made for eased enjoyment, but intent to be an art or intellectual excise. Synecdoche, New York is clearly one of those films.
