I would hate to have to defend a worthless piece of community organizer they way the left defends obama. If they had any ethics, it would be tear their souls.
My sad experience with all too many leftists is that they appear unconcerned about looking foolish if it is done in the service of advancing their ugly agenda.
I’m not sure whether it’s inherent in their psyches or whether it’s a learned behavior, but I have observed it occurring far too often for it to be a fluke.
For example, they can not abide a truth that contradicts their dogma, so they will raise objections every time in order to get the last word and make it falsely seem as if they are correct, when in fact they are wrong. They will raise a “trivial objection” in an attempt to make the truth appear to be false. They will raise ridiculous objections that even a child can see are phony, apparently without worrying that it makes them look like fools, because they are more concerned about pushing their agenda then they are about looking like idiots. They are unashamed to be seen as obvious sycophants and bootlickers when it comes to defending their heroes against the indefensible.
It’s appalling, but it occurs so often that it’s apparently “a feature” of pathological leftism rather than “a bug”.
