Hmph.
The left is made up of narcissistic high chair kings/queens who want to make people do what they want them to(for their own good)
They believe that their motives are the highest and those who disagree have the basest.
They are not given to rational discussion, examination of facts or understanding unintended consequences of their beliefs put into action.
They want to be story book radicals in a free country where they can say what they want without consequence. They are fantasists who imagine(whatta theme song) the world, at its worst so they can imagine a world at its best delivered by them.
They are authoritarian, rely on judges to fast track anything they want, and secretly hate their countrymen because they actually can be persuaded to vote for republicans, or conservatives. They are not oppressed so they make criminals victims and victims criminals.
They have the bully pulpit, (the arts, the entertainment the media, the academy) and they use it to bully.
They believe that it is conservatives who are fearful and they give us global warming. (Where ya gonna be when the ice caps melt, bro?)
They have a deep screeching howling(nods to Alan Ginsburg)
hole in their soul, that can't be sublimated, because they fear the sublime. Therefore life at either end becomes valuless since their own lacks any higher purpose. This is not so much self loathing as deep primal fear, that always looks outward for the evil that they have within.
Which is why they cannot see their own country as a continuously self correcting hopeful place, but rather the ultimate expression of all the sins of mankind.
They believe that the epithet, " go eff yerself" is not an anatomical impossibility but rather an impossibility imposed by American consumerism, selfishness, imperialism, rightwing theocratic laws, bigoil, halliburton, cheyny, bush and Christians, which can be performed successfully when they get a judge to declare that it can.
So I wish them well with that. Prolly the only part of the liberal canon I can get on board with.
Sigh.....the preceeding is a meta conclusion derived from years of observation and interface with liberals.
Actually, they'd prefer to "eff" us all, so long as they get to enjoy it and we remain ignorant of who is, in fact, doing the "effing".
