Andrew Klavan of City Journal is a former liberal, and his following quote explains why:
The thing I like best about being a conservative is that I don’t have to lie. I don’t have to pretend that men and women are the same. I don’t have to declare that failed or oppressive cultures are as good as mine. Leftism has outlived its own failure by hiding itself within the most labyrinthine construct of social delicacy since Victoria was queen.
In today's Wall Street Journal, Klavan (who is also a screen writer) paints a scary picture of government controlled health care, i.e., Obamacare. Here's a link:
