Editorial "They Should Be Ashamed?" Conservatives find it difficult to understand their l^lK-ral friends When there is a difference of opion fon (and this is frequent* conservatives are accused of lieing negative and stupid. The implication is that lilierals are always positive, the wave of the present and tlie future, the conservatives repre senting all that is worst in the* past. Lilierals are {xrsitive in favor of: Federal aid to education. Federal control of medical care. Fed eral regulation of farmers and ranchers. More and more taxes for health, housing, social security anil welfare. More jxiwer and authoiity for execu tive and appointive officers of the federal govern ment More power for union leaders. More em phasis on regulation of prices, wages, production and our economic system. This "positive" approach would regiment the American jieople in "cradle to the grave security" hy sharing misery. Their price for "security” is the surrender of freedoms iiought in t>l<mmI and suffering at Valley Forge, Gettysburg, the Marne, Normandy Beachhead and Porkchop Bill. And for opposing the liberal mythalogy that “you can get something for nothing, liecause some one else is paying for it,” conservatives are labelled reactionary. Neanderthal thinkers ” The lilieral claims to lie an "intellectual” and disparagingly tells the conservative "peon" he is too idiotically stupid to understand the mediocrity ^he has planned for him. Conservatives are. the liberal "wise man" claims, negative thinkers because they believe in such outmoded ideas as: Individual initiative. That a man should succeed by the sweat of his own brow and not that of others That a man should have the opportunity tofail if he has not the ability to suc ceed. That government was established not to guar antee a man a living. 1 ut the right to earn a living. That free enterprise is superior to national social ism That all men are not average; and that those above average should have the right to develop and not he condemned for breaking the myth of mediocrity. That God is more Supreme than the federal government. That man should not ask gov ernment to do for them what they can do better for themselves or by working with their neighbors. If believing these things makes a man or wo man a rectionary. a “Neandertha thinker," the conservative should he proud in the company of Washington, Jefferson, Andrew Jackson, Theodore Roosevelt proud to wear the label American! Conservatives find it difficult to understand their lil>eral friends, but then may lie they are too "negative or stupid" to know any better than to be proud of tieing an American!
