A "Liberal Kamikaze" is an oxymoron...liberals are - by their very nature - cowards. Unless they are backed by superior numbers, or the power of the courts, or EEO, they are cowards.

Metaphor- noun 1. a figure of speech in which a term or phrase is applied to something to which it is not literally applicable in order to suggest a resemblance, as in “A mighty fortress is our God.”

Oxymoron noun: conjoining contradictory terms (as in `deafening silence' or 'liberal Kamakaze')

The point was that a liberal cannot be a Kamakaze because ofr their inherent cowardice...contradictory terms, which is an Oxymoron.

A metaphor would be something like, " A liberal kamikaze is liberals having nerf ball fight".
