Top psychiatrist concludes liberals are clinically nuts!Makes case ideology is mental disorder
WorldNet Daily ^ | 02/15/2008 | unknown

"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."

You would have to be morally retarded to oppose capital punishment for mass murderers while supporting the execution of innocent full-term babies.

You would have to be crazy to demand public funding for pornographic “art”, in the name of free speech, while throwing pies at Ann Coulter and shouting down David Horowitz.

You would have to be a bug-eyed lunatic to constantly whine about “tax cuts for the rich” while such cuts always send the revenues you get to use to buy votes through the roof.

You would have to be clinically insane to be a feminist who tried to destroy Clarence Thomas, but would defend Bill Clinton to the death.

You would have to be utterly deranged to be the mother of Casey Sheehan who was murdered by Islamofascists and decide to make friends with the Islamofascist Muslim Brotherhood because at least they hate America too.

Why must we allow these imbeciles to vote our country onto the ash-heap of history?

Read The Twelve Caesars by Suetonius. He writes that whenever Nero heard of a Roman of exemplary virtue, he sought to destroy him.

The liberal mind is a reprobate mind. They hate those who live godly lives because those lives testify against their own wickedness and impending judgement.

Norway is now the best model for the U.S. to follow according to the MUSLIM Congressman.

The deranged lib mind is thoroughly exposed in the following speech. It's long but it's on the money. Somewhere you can find the audio of it too.

I’ve been arguing for years that there is no substantive difference between the liberal mind and the mind of a petty criminal.

Oh c'mon now. That's a little overboard. It's true that a petty criminal engages in a certain amount of moral relativism but that doesn't mean they are completely unhinged.

You may have a point. I shouldn’t insult petty criminals like that!

Whoa, he hit the nail on the head in this.

“The roots of liberalism – and its associated madness – can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational beliefs of the liberal mind,” he says. “When the modern liberal mind whines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious.”

You know.... don’t be sorry. Sometimes I cannot go through EVERY article that is posted. There have been way too many times that the first reading for me is at the 2nd, 3rd, or 4th posting. I may be away from the computer for 12 hours or 12 days and I would miss something that apparently many people think is important to be posted.

So, instead of rebuking you about a “double-post”, I gratefully thank you for your posting faux pas.
