The Conservatives must realise that being sceptical is different from being phobic in what is an interdependent world.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
There's a certain kind of scepticism that can't bear uncertainty.
I suspect that even most conservatives would prefer to live in the kind of world conjured up in the liberals' imagination rather than in the kind of world we are in fact stuck with.
Their very conservatism is secondhand, and they don't know what they are conserving.
Most people are sceptical about the wrong things and gullible about the wrong things.
Conservatives used to believe in confronting hard truths, not succumbing to comforting fairy tales. Some still do.
Undoubtedly, the biggest misconception about me is that I'm some staunch conservative, blind, rightwing hardcore Republican who doesn't want to hear anything from the other side.
It's my view that any conservative who loves his country has to be extremely concerned.
Being a skeptic just means being rational and empirical: thinking and seeing before believing.
Liberals are not always so liberal with people who disapprove - disapprove of their point of view.
True conservatives fear anything that is at odds with the status quo, even to the extent of being unable to recognise when the status quo represents injustice. And reactionary conservatives actually want to tear down the gains of the past.
