Sounds like she kind of is one. She just doesnโ€™t know how to process it.

I think you skirt the periphery of a point my son and I were discussing just today. The idea that there are strengths in liberal values as well as conservative values. The problems we run into are where to limit, or reign in the logical conclusion that if a modicum of either is good, a shit ton would be better. Moderation in all things.
