When Love Conquers Politics | FrontPage Magazine
A lesson for everyone.....
When Love Conquers Politics | FrontPage Magazine:
David Horowitz remembers the moment well. The author of Radical Son, fresh off his political conversion, was having dinner with his family one night, explaining why he had become a conservative — and why they should, too. At that point, he admits, he was still “unable to speak about such matters without passions rising unbidden that were near ferocious.” His animus was the result of a recent break with hardened leftists, after witnessing them commit a series of heinous acts and then excuse them. The problem was that Horowitz was now inclined to assail anyone to his left — however decent — and on this night, he allowed his anger to overflow."
