‘I can see why gays might dislike Scalia’s tone, or be hurt by Irons’ ‘lack of strong feelings’…’

April 6, 2013 By Kathy Shaidle

Mark Steyn:

But the alternative – that there is only one approved tone, that one must fake strong feelings – is creepy and totalitarian and deeply threatening to any healthy society. Irons is learning, as Carrie Prejean learned a while back, that “liberals” aren’t interested in your opinion, or even your sincere support, but only that you understand that there’s one single, acceptable answer. We don’t teach kids to memorize historic dates or great poetry anymore, but we do insist they memorize correct attitudes and regurgitate them correctly when required to do so in public.
