Why Are Liberals still Angry?
Pajamas Media ^ | 15 Sep 2009 | Frank Fleming

The liberals were crazy angry while George W. Bush was president. Part of it was that for a time after 9/11, they were made completely irrelevant — when people are dying, who is going to listen to a liberal?

But another part of it is that it’s much easier to hate a person than to hate a concept — like conservatism. So they were able to channel all their hate into President Bush. And they were jumping-around-pooh-flinging-biting-each-other angry. I think a number of conservatives were secretly looking forward to the Obama presidency in hopes that liberals might just calm down a little. Maybe they’d even consider supporting the troops in their war efforts for a change. At least, maybe they would be a bit less angry.

Big miscalculation.

Now conservatives have more reason to be angry these days, with liberals in charge and all the spending and government takeovers. But with Democrats having complete control of the government, you’d think liberals could be dismissive of conservatives and be calm themselves. But no, they’re still crazy angry. Maybe even angrier than before. Biting-fingers-off angry. They’re screeching about how all the people opposed to Obama are racists and neo-Nazis and stupid, and they’re using sexual slurs against protesters and boycotting everyone who disagrees with them. They’re still nuts, but why?

It is the nature of demonRATS to be angry!

Because their whole deal is a house of cards and they know it and must thrash about to keep anything from touching it, less the whole house of cards come tumbling down.
Their Emperor really has no clothes. They live in fear that circumstances or time will run out before they can get even one piece of their socialist agenda in place.

I have long maintained that many in the democrat party do not have a mental illness.

I maintain that they ARE a mental illness.

Everything, and I mean EVERYTHING, that they propose nowadays is the polar opposite of all things rational.

It’s cause and effect in action. Because they are angry, the result is moonbat liberalism.

Actually, I disagree. What bothers me most about liberals is that the things they hated under Bush are okay now. Recession is no big deal if Obama is president. War in Afghanistan? Oh, it’s CUTE when Obama does it. Bombings in Iraq? Hey, let’s not dwell on it, let’s think about something pleasant, like Michelle’s new dress or the kids’ new dog! All their principles have melted away and they are just pleased to look at their pretty, shiny new Prezzy.

obama is not a liberal. He is a commie who is not only pushing totalitarian commie policies, but selling us out to the muslims.

If the liberals want a good place to direct their anger, let them attack commies and muslims. (After all, plenty of old-style liberals like JFK were anti-communist.) Conservatives would be very happy with that arrangement.

“Why Are Liberals still Angry?”

Because, like the ‘racist’ label they throw out, they are childish, spoiled, unproductive, non self-reliant cretins.
And they get all twisted when they can’t have their way.

Hate is their agenda.

They hated Nixon, Reagan, Newt...everyone. It is their motivation.

ESTROGEN.

Which causes their HYSTERIA which is derived from hyster which means "uterus".

The most fundamental principle liberals have is that they are all very, very smart, and everyone should listen to them.

I think he nails it.

Obama was only elected because Americans like people who say happy things

Yep, there is it in an Acorn shell.

Bingo. Just to add--saying what you said in a different way--they cannot STAND to see anyone else happy.

And even going a bit further, because their belief system is based on feelings rather than facts, when someone disagrees with them, it goes to the core of their personhood; it diminishes them. With conservatives like you, me and the rest of the Freepers, if a lib disagrees with us, we just think they are either ignorant, dumb or deranged. And sometimes, it's the hat trick.

But we don't take it personally as they do.

Good call. 'υστερικός : Classical Philology

Kids growing up without fathers also plays a role.
The state becomes a substitute parent.
They look to government for things which traditionally came from families or churches.

"...You just described my brother-in-law and his family..."

And half of my own.

The last time my sister's daughter (48 years old!) lowered her lofty, cosmopolitan, leftist standards to talk to her crazy, right-wing, NRA uncle (me), she wanted money to "start a home-based business" (out of the blue of course - I hadn't heard from her in years).

Turned out (after a lot of prying) she and her boyfriend really wanted to grow "medical marijuana" in her home (that my sister bought, and would lose if they got caught) and they needed money for seeds and growing supplies. I disrespectfully declined.

And she's the pick of the litter. She didn't take too kindly to my response - thinks I'm intolerant. Now my sister thinks so too. Haven't heard from the niece since, the sister only if/when I call.

I think it's all funny stuff that the best screenwriters in Hollywood couldn't gin up. They, however, are livid, because I said "no" and squashed her dreams of financial success (well - to be fair, I suppose I did kind of mock it as well).

Funny thing was that if she'd had a legit business and I was reasonably confident of at least some ROI, and knew she wouldn't have just run it into straight the ground and left me hanging, I probably would have loaned her the money. Of course she's probably figured out how to get "Stimulus" funding for it by now.

Family..... whaddda ya gonna do???

Only leftists would consider GWB an ultra conservative.

And sometimes, I say "Well, maybe you've got something there."

Being a conservative means always having to think, and examine your viewpoint. Look at FR, ask a question of 2 FReepers, and you're likely to get three opinions.

Liberals, for the most part, just run with the herd and let others do the thinking for them. Dissent is quashed....look at the DU. Ask a question of 100 DUmmies, and you'll get 99 saying the same thing, and one will get banned.

Likely the one banned will be a Lousy Freeper Troll....but that's besides the point.

The last good point a lib made was for civil rights back in the 50s and 60s, IMO. It’s been a LOOOOOOONG dry spell for them.
