WASHINGTON Just when liberals thought it was safe to start identifying themselves as such, an acclaimed, veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder.
"Based on strikingly irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principles on which our freedoms were founded," says Dr. Lyle Rossiter, author of the new book, "The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness." "Like spoiled, angry children, they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave."
While political activists on the other side of the spectrum have made similar observations, Rossiter boasts professional credentials and a life virtually free of activism and links to "the vast right-wing conspiracy."

>>Dr. Rossiter says the liberal agenda preys on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by:
creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization;
satisfying infantile claims to entitlement, indulgence and compensation;
augmenting primitive feelings of envy;
rejecting the sovereignty of the individual, subordinating him to the will of the government.<<
SO TRUE

an acclaimed, veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder. We've known that all along. This should drive them over the edge. Hopefully it will be a 300 foot drop! LOL

I hear ya!
When I saw the article at the top of WND I kinda laughed thinking it was a political slight related to Michael Savage. Then as I read it I thought what I guess most on FR do—that liberalism is sad & pathetic, extremely dangerous and yes even nuts.
