‘Liberals -- or, to use Sowell’s disparaging label, ‘the anointed’ -- view the world as ‘a very tidy place,’ where ‘prescient politicians can ‘invest’ tax dollars in the ‘industries of the future,’ where criminals can be ‘rehabilitated,’ irresponsible mothers taught ‘parenting skills,’ and where all sorts of other social problems can be ‘solved.’ ... Again and again, as Sowell shows, the anointed have identified a pathology, administered a medicine to cure it, found that the medicine did nothing helpful and may even have made the patient sicker, and then called for stronger doses of the medicine.’
--Robert George, National Review
‘As compelling an explanation as any for the seemingly disproportionate amount of condescension and politically correct invective that emanates from the liberal side of the political spectrum toward the conservative opposition.’
--Wall Street Journal
