How to Oppose Liberal Intolerance
This is a great article from FrontPage magazine.com. Here's the key paragraph:
The basic reason for the 'liberal' double standard has already been alluded to. It is that today's 'liberals' are really leftists who have rejected the older liberal belief in a shared equality of citizens before the law and have embraced the socialist vision of 'equality as a fact and equality as a result,' as Lyndon Johnson famously put it. Since people are unequal in their ability to accumulate property, as Hayek argued in the Mirage of Social Justice, equality of results can only be pursued by treating people unequally. This is the origin of the double standard.
Makes a lot of sense. Read the whole thing, it's quite good.
