Here, we’ve compiled a list of the best Liberals Quotes from famous authors such as Madison Cawthorn, Thomas Sowell, Mercedes Schlapp, Bari Weiss, Tom Tancredo. Let’s look at these pieces of wisdom. We definitely have something to learn from them!
1
White liberals are the most racist people I’ve ever met in my entire life. They define everything by race. They want people to be able to get into college with lower grades and lower school scores simply because they are African American. That’s insane.
2
There is no question that liberals do an impressive job of expressing concern for blacks. But do the intentions expressed in their words match the actual consequences of their deeds?
3
Do liberals think nations such as Canada, Japan, Britain and Australia are pursuing ‘racist’ immigration policies? All have had merit-based immigration systems in place for decades.
4
Liberals shouldn’t cede the responsibility to defend free speech on college campuses to conservatives. After all, without free speech, what’s liberalism about?
5
You can bring down governments, you can do a lot of things that are in your own interests even though liberals will get very antsy when you start talking about it.
6
People who identify themselves as conservatives donate money to charity more often than people who identify themselves as liberals. They donate more money and a higher percentage of their incomes.
7
The ability to choose who governs us, and the freedom to change laws we do not like, were secured for us in the past by radicals and liberals who took power from unaccountable elites and placed it in the hands of the people.
8
Only liberals know how to make you freer on the job, which is where most of us suffer the gravest indignities in our lives.
9
We do not have a racial crisis; we have an ideology crisis. We have socialists, Marxists, and liberals who have hijacked my race.
10
What liberals mean by ‘goose-stepping’ or ‘ethnic cleansing’ is generally something along the lines of ‘eliminating taxpayer funding for the National Endowment for the Arts.’ But they can’t say that, or people would realize they’re crazy.
11
Liberals like to say there aren’t any limitations on speech, and it’s true that they can say or do just about anything. But conservatives apparently can’t even stand still while wearing a MAGA hat without crossing a line.
12
In the myopic world of the liberals, guns are responsible for evil instead of the perpetrator of evil. But criminals are not bound by our laws. That’s what makes them criminals.
13
Integration is the biggest con job ever pulled on any group of people, any nationality in the world. It was a plot by white liberals to gain black political power for themselves and their wild ideas, and for a few black bourgeoisie who were paid to exercise leverage as black spokesmen.
14
We’ve finally given liberals a war against fundamentalism, and they don’t want to fight it. They would except that it would put them on the same side as the United States.
15
If the Liberals’ law is passed, will sex education in the schools, including elementary grades, include the same portrayals of sexual activity which presently exist in heterosexual instruction? Will there be the same presentation of homosexual activity? Of course there will.
16
I guess the news is this: If you’re a Republican and you smile, liberals don’t like it. Maybe that’s because Democrats are afraid that I’ve been able to show an optimistic vision for this country.
17
There was a time when liberalism was identified with anti-Communism. But the Vietnam War led liberals into the arms of the Left, which had been morally confused about Communism since its inception and had become essentially pacifist following the carnage of World War I.
18
In general, liberals fear conservative judges far too much. In almost all areas, in fact, they dramatically overstate the stakes.
19
Failure to find a way to incorporate political Islam in democracy, however uncomfortable its ideology is for secular liberals, will mean we have given them little alternative but to find other means of expression. Inevitably, some of this would be violent.
20
For people who seem so hell-bent on multiculturalism, why can’t liberals understand that free enterprise/freedom is a part of the American Culture?
21
What I want is a sort of new political realignment on libertarian/authoritarian lines, and I want a new consensus to emerge of disaffected liberals, classical liberals, dissident minorities like gays, small-state conservatives, libertarians, people who basically want to be left alone.
22
The Liberals are the flying saucers of politics. No one can make head nor tail of them and they never are seen twice in the same place.
23
I wrote ‘Bamboozled’ to expose and uncover the lies liberals have used for generations to exploit minorities for the vote.
24
I have no issue with Rosa Parks. But I do have an issue with liberals trying to canonize her in order to glorify themselves and legitimize their route to ‘progress’ through political and racial agitation instead of hard work and character.
25
When it comes to explaining the phenomenon of right-wing populism, liberals are likely to argue both that the populist era has exposed a darkness always present at the heart of conservative politics and that a toxic, post-truth new-media ecosystem has greased the skids for President Trump, Brexit and the rest.
26
We laugh at liberals who declare that their favorite spending programs should be exempt because the spending is for a noble cause.
27
One of the most pervasive political visions of our time is the vision of liberals as compassionate and conservatives as less caring.
28
Conservatives brayed that government should stay out of the private sector; liberals bleated for nationalizing the banks.
29
Has there ever been a more revealing moment this year? Let me just put this in fairly simple terms: Al Jazeera now broadcasts the words of Senator Durbin to the Mideast, certainly putting our troops in greater danger. No more needs to be said about the motives of liberals.
30
There are a lot of well meaning white liberals. And a lot of well meaning black liberals. But you know what? When all they do is sit around and preach to the choir it does absolutely no good. If you’re not a racist it doesn’t do any good for me to meet with you and sit around and talk about how bad racism is.
31
There are conservatives who say, ‘Why would you show the country in a weak way?’ And there are liberals who say I’m exploitative.
32
Little by little, not without astonishment, I rediscovered the great names of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, who had been the master thinkers of my grandfather and other Mexican liberals. They did no offer me a doctrine or a catechism: they were and they are a source, an inspiration.
33
Liberals hate real Americans that work and achieve and believe in God.
34
I don’t think liberals in the media are really that much different from liberals outside the media.
35
Over the years, over the history of our country, liberals have stood on many of the right sides of the issues.
36
Conservatives saw the savagery of 9/11 in the attacks and prepared for war; liberals saw the savagery of the 9/11 attacks and wanted to prepare indictments and offer therapy and understanding for our attackers.
37
I think liberals would love to see the conservative party be more moderate, more middle of the road. I mean, my gosh, what do you call John McCain? Some would argue, what do you call Mitt Romney?
38
Whether they are defending the Soviet Union or bleating for Saddam Hussein, liberals are always against America. They are either traitors or idiots, and on the matter of America’s self-preservation, the difference is irrelevant.
39
Why is it that right-wing bastards always stand shoulder to shoulder in solidarity, while liberals fall out among themselves?
40
Liberals watch MSNBC; conservatives watch Fox. They don’t want to hear ten seconds of a liberal on Fox, and they don’t want to hear ten seconds of a conservative on MSNBC.
41
When liberals advocate a value-added tax, conservatives should respond: Taxing consumption has merits, so we will consider it – after the 16th Amendment is repealed.
42
I’m tired of liberals dividing this country up into little groups, setting them upon each other, breeding spite and envy, and then having the nerve to accuse conservatives of hatred.
43
I would also argue… that we are, by inclination and in terms of our history, we are small ‘l’ liberals, we Canadians.
44
When you stand your ground, and you are attacked by liberals and attacked by the press, that is going to earn you the respect of voters.
45
My fellow liberals need to open their minds and realize that not all Trump supporters are racist, sexist, or deplorable individuals.
46
It wouldn’t be fair to say that conservatives cherish property the way liberals cherish equality. But it would be fair to say that the takings clause is the conservatives’ recipe for judicial activism just as they say liberals have misused the equal protection clause.
47
Conservatives literally view it as a kind of a weakness to talk to people other than their own. Nothing would bore me more than to sit around talking and listening to a bunch of liberals all day.
48
Usually the nonsense liberals spout is kind of cute, but in wartime their instinctive idiocy is life-threatening.
49
Liberals always blame the other guy.
50
I have the greatest sympathy with the growth of the socialist party. I think they understand the evils that surround us and hammer them into people’s minds better than we Liberals.
51
Time and time again, history has proved that the conservatives are right and the liberals are wrong.
52
‘Bombing Afghanistan back into the Stone Age’ was quite a favourite headline for some wobbly liberals. The slogan does all the work. But an instant’s thought shows that Afghanistan is being, if anything, bombed out of the Stone Age.
53
Liberals are not always so liberal with people who disapprove – disapprove of their point of view.
54
There’s the great line: the definition of a liberal is someone who’s afraid to take their own side in a fight. And that’s my problem with my fellow liberals.
55
Most liberals I know do not consider themselves to even be liberals. They just think of you and me as conservatives, and that means, therefore, we’re odd and we’re kooks and maybe extreme and maybe mean.
56
People of all political persuasions – conservatives, moderates, and liberals alike – need to dedicate themselves once again to preserving the moral foundation of our society.
57
I’d say I’m a true conservative. Liberals have got a monopoly on protecting the environment, or all the cool technology, and I don’t think we should cede that territory.
58
Liberals like using government to solve problems in OUR country and conservatives are using our government to solve problems in OTHER countries.
59
‘Political junkies’ and liberals will watch MSNBC, and angry, old right-wingers will watch Fox.
60
It’s not merely that conservatives are better at selling their product, or that they happen to have an easier-and undoubtedly simpler-ideological product to sell. It’s that they know what they are selling. Liberals in general and Obama in particular cannot say the same.
61
What mattered about Alan Kurdi’s photograph was that it made Canadians very angry, and the Conservatives, Liberals and New Democrats ended up competing with each other over which party was offering the most generous refugee policy.
62
Somehow liberals have been unable to acquire from life what conservatives seem to be endowed with at birth: namely, a healthy skepticism of the powers of government agencies to do good.
63
One of the most important things liberals don’t understand about conservatism, obscured by too much lazy talk about conservatism’s various ‘wings,’ is that its tenets form a relatively organic base for its adherents, where ‘traditional morality’ serves the interests of laissez-faire economics and vice-versa.
64
If the Liberals and NDP were to take office they would take the benefits away and raise taxes.
65
There are no more liberals They’ve all been mugged.
66
Liberals don’t think parents can be left to their own devices when it comes to raising our children.
67
Liberals complain that coal activity isn’t a major producer of jobs because the industry is producing a lot more coal with a lot fewer workers. That is absolutely true. Ladies and gentlemen, that is called productivity.
68
It isn’t generally the case that liberals dominate entire hierarchies. That isn’t generally how it works, because the hierarchies are usually set up so that conservatives fill up the hierarchies; it’s in the nature of hierarchy.
69
Liberals claim to want to give a hearing to other views, but then are shocked and offended to discover that there are other views.
70
If you asked a team of expert psychologists and sociological researchers to come up with a design that was sure to infuriate and offend liberals in America, they’d probably come up with what we call the Great Seal.
71
Before this learning experience, I had assumed that with regard to programs that sought to help people out of poverty, the political world was essentially divided into two camps: conservatives who opposed these for a variety of reasons, and liberals who supported them.
72
There is no tax policy that better describes how out of touch America’s liberals are with the rest of the country than the estate tax. According to the Left, government seizure of a large share of the wealth of an American taxpayer is a moral imperative that serves social justice. Most Americans disagree, big time.
73
Too great a love for the presidency has caused Democrats to neglect state and local politics and to overly prize compromise and a futile quest for bipartisanship. It has made liberals too allergic to federalism and too shy about grassroots politics.
74
American liberals have become addicted to the courtroom, relying on judges and lawyers rather than elected leaders and the ballot box, as the primary means of effecting their social agenda on everything from gay marriage to assisted suicide to the use of vouchers for private-school education.
75
Where liberals see as an ever-more-splendid diversity of colors, creeds, ethnicities, ideologies, beliefs and lifestyles, the Right sees the disintegration of a country, a nation, a people, and its replacement with a Tower of Babel. Visions in conflict that democracy cannot reconcile.
76
My faith has been the driving thing of my life. I think it is important that people who are perceived as liberals not be afraid of talking about moral and community values.
77
It’s fashionable to think that the conservative parties in America are the science deniers. You certainly wouldn’t have trouble supporting that claim. But liberals are not exempt.
78
It’s not that white guys shouldn’t be allowed to engage in discussions on race in America. But there’s nothing more exhausting than white male liberals’ dogmatisms on race that were clearly formed during a conversation they had with that one black guy they met back in college.
79
The Great Seal has got it all – everything liberals despise is there, front and center.
80
Roosevelt got a chance to name an amazing nine justices of the Supreme Court. He was not namby-pamby on this question. He wanted people who shared his views, he wanted liberals, and he wanted lots of them.
81
One of the hardiest myths in British public life is that there is a conspiracy of silence on immigration. Liberals and leftists, it is alleged, have bandied together to prevent debate or discussion of ‘mass immigration’ into the U.K., caused by Labour’s ‘open door’ policies.
82
The Liberal Party has finally shown its true colours. I’m talking about the real Liberal Party: the tax-hiking, rule-breaking, perk-loving, deficit-spending, debt-mounting, virtue-signalling Liberals Canadians have come to know and despise.
83
I am consistently amazed at Sean Hannity’s inability to host his own show. He’s a dear, dear man – a very nice person… these liberals who aren’t even that smart just come in and absolutely bulldoze him like a child.
84
Embryonic stem cell research wears no political stripes – it is embraced by conservatives, liberals, Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.
85
You Liberals think that goats are just sheep from broken homes.
86
Political debate with liberals is basically impossible in America today because liberals are calling names while conservatives are trying to make arguments.
87
If liberals no longer pride themselves on being the adults in the room, the bulwark against the whims of the mob, our national descent into chaos will be complete.
88
I think that liberals need to grow up.
89
If you hear, day after day, liberals are rooting against armed forces, that is eventually going to have an effect on soldiers and troops who are actually going to believe that and it’s wrong. It’s just wrong.
90
First there was racism. Then liberals created institutional racism and coded racism. You can only hear it with a dog whistle.
91
During past years, like frightened children, we were afraid to eat the strong meat of human rights and instead sucked the milk of civil rights from the breasts of white liberals, black Uncle Toms, and Aunt Jemimas.
92
It’s become a running joke among the public, and liberals have lost all credibility when it comes to climate science because their arguments have become so ridiculous and so obviously disconnected from reality.
93
The Liberals would love to have people believe that the choice is a carbon tax or nothing. I reject that.
94
There are some in black robes sitting on federal benches all across this country. They’re Democrats, Republicans, liberals, and even conservatives that pervert the Constitution.
95
Conservatives have long been suspicious that Romney isn’t truly one of them. The release of his tax returns should settle the matter once and for all: He’s not only to be accepted, but admired and emulated – and by liberals as well as conservatives.
96
Liberals are always proposing perfectly insane ideas, laws that will make everybody happy, laws that will make everything right, make us live forever, and all be rich. Conservatives are never that stupid.
97
Too often, I believe, liberals deny that poverty is linked to bad choices.
98
Conservatives define themselves more by their hatred of liberals than anything else, and, conversely, liberals by their distaste for conservatives.
99
Liberals always exempt themselves from the rules that they impose on others.
100
Liberals seem to assume that, if you don’t believe in their particular political solutions, then you don’t really care about the people that they claim to want to help.
101
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.
102
Google that, ‘old white men,’ and you’ll find that comes out of the mouths of liberals in a daily basis across the country. They’re disparaging a group of people, and it’s time somebody stood up for that group of people.
103
American liberals are an external part of Israel’s conscience, and when it disdains them, it becomes a harder and more isolated place. The support that Israel has gained from millenarian American conservatives is no substitute, in part because such allies aren’t persuasive global advocates for Israel.
104
Conservatives and liberals can find common ground.
105
The problem with most liberals – myself included – is we tend to think we’re post-racial: that we’ve got a handle on things because we’re not racists.
106
Republicans rarely criticize Obama for lack of empathy – in part because liberals have traditionally been seen as standing up for the weak and the vulnerable. Conservatives can be just as empathetic. But they believe that, in most cases, it’s not government’s role to be the primary dispenser of empathy.
107
The liberals in the House strongly resemble liberals I have known through the last two decades in the civil rights conflict. When it comes time to show on which side they will be counted, they excuse themselves.
108
We have to stress our conservative credentials and emphasize that we are the natural, national alternative to the Liberals. Clearly the Alliance has shown it can’t break out of its Western box. The Alliance is at single-digit support in three quarters of the country.
109
Almost everything I think we’ve accomplished for the good of the country has been because of liberals against conservative opposition.
110

The difference between the Liberals and the Conservatives is that the Conservatives are being honest that what they’re planning to do is not going to get us past 30 per cent greenhouse gas emissions reductions.
112
I think that most of the young officers I know are leftists and liberals and Democrats. And the reason is this: All of our soldiers, the men that work for us directly, are minorities – blacks or Latinos. And we empathize with them. Our job is to advise them and help them.
113
I don’t trust liberals, I trust conservatives.
114
Liberals from California to Washington are fighting President Trump on illegal immigration.
115
Liberals have difficulty understanding the Tea Party because they think it is a bunch of selfish racists. But I think the Tea Party is driven in large part by concerns about fairness.
116
The myth of the liberal media empowers conservatives to control debate in the United States to the point where liberals cannot even hope for a fair shake anymore.
117
Everywhere I go, I see all kinds of people at my shows – conservatives, liberals, new-agers, teen-agers, old pensioners. And for those people to have something in common is real interesting to me.
118
The ‘takings’ clause of the Fifth Amendment is for conservatives what the equal protection clause of the 14th is for liberals.
119
He was my favorite senator… I love him. He made the liberals squeal.
120
Liberals, conservatives, Muslims, Jews, Christians, and I find – I think education is something that can bring us together.
121
Liberals have been committed to the principles of human rights, international stability, and international justice. They have also sought international solutions to those problems which have demanded collective attention.
122
Liberals spend a whole lot of time trying to convince us they love teachers, but dig even skin deep into the matter, and it becomes evident that liberals hate teachers.
123
You know, we have main English language parties, federalist parties, and traditionally the ones to watch would be the Conservatives, who form the government, and then the Liberals.
124
Free speech is carelessly tossed to one side in order to silence views and people that liberals label as intolerant.
125
We’re liberals, so quitting is not an option. We will push through the hard days so we can celebrate together on the good ones.
126
Liberals are some of the most arrogant, condescending smart alecks, but they’re just pure ignorant, and they fit the bill of people who have no love and no respect for the founding of this country.
127

128
Liberals instinctively cling to racism or bigotry or hate or narrow-mindedness whenever they can.
129
Prior to civil rights, the Democratic Party had been defined by an increasingly untenable alliance of ideological opposites – integrationist Northern liberals like Hubert Humphrey and Herbert Lehman teamed with Southern segregationists like Richard Russell and John Stennis.
130
Some liberals have a problem with me simply because I work at Fox, and nothing I do short of storming off the set in a rage will get them to respect that I work there.
131
The arts community is generally dominated by liberals because if you are concerned mainly with painting or sculpture, you don’t have time to study how the world works. And if you have no understanding of economics, strategy, history and politics, then naturally you would be a liberal.
132
Especially for the young and the lowest-skilled, minimum wage becomes a toll that prevents many from entering the work force and gaining the skills that can make a low income or middle class worker a high income worker. This is so obvious that one wonders why liberals keep championing the minimum wage cause.
133
Liberals are sometimes defined as people who can’t take their own side in an argument.
134
Don’t expect liberals to weigh the costs of their sweet-sounding policies.
135
The liberals think government exists to fix what’s wrong with America. They find fault with our Constitution, our economic model and our core values. We disagree with the premise of their argument. We believe there’s nothing wrong with America that an extra dose of freedom won’t cure.
136
Indeed, Miss Manners has come to believe that the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the love lives of strangers and those who do not.
137
It is true that some liberals and humanists, along with the laid-back Danes, deny the existence of evil. This is largely because they regard the word ‘evil’ as a device for demonising those who are really nothing more than socially unfortunate.
138
All too often when liberals cite statistics, they forget the statisticians’ warning that correlation is not causation.
139
The Republican Party’s typical position is to preemptively surrender whenever liberals start yelling ‘Oh that’s mean. You can’t use that word’: ‘Oh I did not realize that ‘The New York Times’ made a finding that the term ‘anchor baby’ is offensive. Henceforth I shall not use it.’
140
You actually see liberals checking ‘Fox News,’ if only to know what the conservatives are thinking. And you’re seeing conservatives who venture into liberal sources, just to know what ‘The New York Times’ is thinking.
141
Being veterans of the struggle to push back against fundamentalist Christians, American liberals are well acquainted with the pitfalls of the neoconservative flirtation with the religious-right.
142
When you don’t behave the way liberals think you should, their effort and their intention to control you compounds.
143
We Hindus have a long-recognised tradition of being religious liberals by nature.
144
Government must become lean and efficient and customer friendly. It must begin to pay its bills. Liberals believe this is radical and cruel. The rest of us think it is common sense.
145
I think Hillary and Bill are really liberals at heart. I think that, in addition to being liberals, they are very practical. They have made some decisions about what it takes to win.
146
Of course climate changes. Many changes are due to factors over which humans have no control, such as winds, ocean currents, and sun activity. But the liberals want us to believe that climate change is also caused by gases expelled when humans burn so-called fossil fuels.
147
Liberals sit from this lofty perch of pomposity, but they are the champions of ignorance. They don’t know what they’re talking about.
148
There was no doubt that there was a vast organization which was making fools of all the liberals in Hollywood and taking their money, that there was a police state among the Left element in Hollywood and Broadway.
149
You can’t improve what you can’t measure, and liberals have resisted any kind of meaningful measurement of success in the classroom for decades. Instead of focusing on the three R’s, liberals have thrown up a barrage of silly things designed to distract us all from their awful stewardship of the schools.
150
‘E pluribus unum’ is perhaps the most obnoxious motto the Founders could have come up with, as far as liberals are concerned. They don’t mind the e pluribus part – they love to note the things that divide and separate us. But they positively despise the unum part.
151
And in English Canada, no one really knows where the support is coming from, but Conservatives would assume that it’s bleeding from the Liberals. So we have a divided left in Canada.
152
The reality is the cap-and-trade legislation offered by the Democrats amounts to an economic declaration of war on the Midwest by liberals on Capitol Hill.
153
Liberals need to take the advice they routinely give to conservatives: that there are consequences to their divisive rhetoric, and that in their attempts to score political points, they are also inciting violence.
154
We liberals do sometimes forsake our vows of compassion for all mankind.
155
My friendships and relationships in the conservative world are not predicated on political correctness and enforced conformity of thought. They are based, instead, on mutual respect, honesty and understanding – concepts many modern liberals should consider revisiting.
156
Liberals allow right-wingers on their platforms to have a ‘civilized discussion,’ but there’s no reasoning with racists. I don’t want them to have a platform that humanizes them. I want to talk down to them and meet them exactly where they are, with absolutely no respect.
157
Conservatives and liberals alike have been waiting for this moment for a third of a century.
158
Liberals in Congress have spent the past three decades pandering to environmental extremists. The policies they have put in place are in large part responsible for the energy crunch we are seeing today. We have not built a refinery in this country for 30 years.
159
The pain and hardship the Trudeau Liberals are causing Canadians is just temporary.
160
I’m not allowed to buy advertising for my book ’50 Things Liberals Love to Hate’ on Facebook because, according to their representative, they have received complaints about the word ‘hate’ in my book title.
161
The left, liberals, believe that if we just have more gun control laws, all the problems are going to go away. Well, I don’t think so. I don’t think so. I think – yes, it will, it will be reduced. There’s no question about that.
162
Liberals are my friends, my colleagues, my social world.
163
Every time the liberals pass a bill – I don’t care what it involves – they stick criminal sanctions on it. They don’t feel there is any way people are going to keep a law unless they can put them in jail.
164
The north of Sweden is very socialist and poor. They feel left out and despise Stockholm in many ways because Stockholm has become new liberals and much more Americanized.
165
Whereas all liberals are thought to erupt self-righteously whenever they feel like it, conservatives believe that they themselves are never permitted to say what they really think.
166
We Liberals like to think our thoughts aren’t controlled. We pride ourselves on our independent thinking. We know we shouldn’t believe everything we read. We realize the media is skewed, we know it’s owned by a small group of people, we realize it’s biased, etc.
167
All I do is convert liberals to conservatism. That’s what I do, and that’s why they don’t like me.
168
Let’s leave behind the predictable and stale debate between liberals and conservatives. Let’s take the resources that we have, and prioritize, and manage, and focus our energy on just doing things that count – on real results.
169
A bunch of liberals wanted to outlaw men gazing at women because the gaze was said to objectify women. Sorry, liberals, it can’t be helped among the heterosexual crowd.
170
Believe me, I bash liberals for being mean-spirited and angry, but there are plenty on my side who are the same way.
171
Some liberals think that describing any role that education gaps play in creating income inequality is some sort of sellout – that, in essence, you’re telling the middle class, ‘Tough luck; you should have stayed in college.’
172
You always want to have a mix of conservatives and liberals on a panel, especially on election night.
173
Liberals are concerned about the concentration of wealth because it almost inevitably leads to a concentration of power that undermines democracy.
174
Tunisian liberals say that the U.S. Embassy in Tunis is unengaged with their efforts to make sure the Tunisian model remains one of expanding freedom.
175
Justin Trudeau tries to say that Canada is back. I say the Liberals are back – back to ignoring the rules and abusing the privileges of power.
176
Liberals tend to stress how marvelous education is, in and of itself, and also adore it as a vessel for genuine equality. (That’s me, by the way: Hell, I think we should be spending $50 billion a year to make college education free).
177
Only if you empower the liberals, if you empower the moderate socialists, if you empower all factions of society, only then will extremists be marginalised.
178
Inside of many liberals is a fascist struggling to get out.
179
Liberals, it has been said, are generous with other peoples’ money, except when it comes to questions of national survival when they prefer to be generous with other people’s freedom and security.
180
Very few checklist liberals will focus on transformational work if they are rewarded or punished only for their transactional work.
181
Liberals tried to oust Attorney General Jeff Sessions when news emerged that his congressional testimony did not clearly articulate his minimal, par-for-the-course communications with the Russian ambassador while he was a Senator.
182
As a life-long liberal who has engaged in protests against the government and for civil rights, I am saddened at efforts by some of my fellow liberals to silence commencement speakers with whom they might disagree on some issues.
183
I don’t judge my effectiveness by how many words I say. I think liberals often see nuances in things… Conservatives tend to see things in black and white. It gives them an air of certainty and conviction that might make them more comfortable to watch.
184
Reagan is the subject of ongoing political debate, and a lot of liberals don’t want to take Reagan any more seriously than they did when he was president. I understand why they don’t, but they should.

Powerful messages that defend life and celebrate true heroines can’t be contained, not even by the best efforts of some of the most powerful liberals on the planet.
186
A lot of theatre people are definitely not conservative, but I don’t think liberals get to own the culture.
187
The only threat is a growing pushback from militant liberals who seek to destroy free expression as they look to limit the speech of anyone who has feelings they find objectionable. It makes comics tentative to push boundaries and freely talk about the thoughts in their heads. That part is terrible for development.

I like to discuss things. I am open: I like to discuss with liberals better than I do with conservatives.
189
The truth is liberals are using every tactic possible to drown the Trump presidency.

191
I think maybe it’s time for liberals to not start weeping when I say things like ‘retard’ or ‘illegal alien.’
192
Breaking through glass ceilings isn’t reserved for liberals.
193
It really is a fact that liberals are much higher than conservatives on a major personality trait called ‘openness to experience.’ People who are high on openness to experience just crave novelty, variety, diversity, new ideas, travel. People low on it like things that are familiar, that are safe and dependable.
194
Republicans traditionally say, ‘oh, we’ll cut domestic spending, but we won’t touch the military.’ The liberals – the ones who are good – will say, ‘oh, we’ll cut the military, but we won’t cut domestic spending.’
195
The reason why the Liberals and the NDP don’t want parents to know about the universal child care benefit is because those parties would take that benefit away.
196
You know, I think, people of all stripes in California, Republicans, Democrats, conservatives, liberals, frankly, as I have traveled the state, the number one issue is jobs. And they are looking for which candidate can get the economy back on track.
197
The West is pathetically naive about Russian reformers. We long to believe they are real liberals, but no liberal will ever rule Russia.
198
While many liberals have dismissed the idea of political correctness as a right-wing manufactured hysteria, it is in fact a real thing.

201
No civil rights movement has gotten anywhere without the help of white liberals.
202
Liberals worry that what’s best for the individual might not be better for the public at large. But that philosophy assumes something vicious about each and every one of us. It assumes we only care about ourselves.
203
For liberals, generally speaking, honoring procedures – means – is the core of what being ‘principled’ means. For conservatives, fighting for the right outcome – ends – even at the expense of procedural nicety, is what being ‘principled’ means.
204
I believe that the worst thing the liberals did in this country was the Lyndon Johnson welfare system, which broke up millions of marriages by funneling taxpayers’ money solely to the woman. That made the father and husband irrelevant.

206
The neoconservatives of the 1970s, former liberals who became Nixon or Reagan backers, eventually accepted the ‘neocon’ description instead of calling themselves ‘The Real New Deal Democrats’ forever.

Liberals tend to put the onus of your success on society and conservatives on you and your family.
210
We all know liberals and Democrats who look down on certain people, and there is such a thing as P.C.
211
Women in Hollywood have no male allies. There are some who pretend to be on our side, but yeah, not really. They may say the right thing because, after all, they’re liberals, and that’s a public image they’d like to keep up.
212
The liberals can understand everything but people who don’t understand them.
213
When a criminal breaks into your home I’ll let the liberals call the lawyer. I’m going to call Smith & Wesson.
214
Liberals have been overselling the threat to reproductive rights for decades.
215
