“You’re not allowed to just say no to everything the president wants,”


an attendee originally from Australia, who basically wonders if any Tea Partiers can be arrested.

“The thing that makes America different, and this is a very dialectical, paradoxical concept, is that we have a lot of democracy,” he says. “The idea that everyone has an opinion of about what they’re hearing is both the glory and the tragedy of American democracy.”

Less democracy, aka: citizen participation

No dissent allowed.

Use of police coercion.

Of course, it’s not fascist when the left does it.

They have a total blindness to individual liberty. They rant about using laws to create handouts and institutions that they seem to think cater to personal self-interest all the while being incapable of understanding anyone who would turn down dependency in favor of self-reliance.

No wonder they are losing. They do not understand basic human drives and when confronted by them, they deny that they can exist.

So, can we assume that the progressives are driven only by self-interest, have a fear of democracy and can be controlled by threats of police coercion? Or do they see themselves above all that while assuming that the experimental subjects will respond positively to such actions?

Total cognitive dissonance is truly a mental disorder.

That, in a nutshell, is the problem with leftism. It denies human nature, and it is contrary to Biblical standards, as well.

That's why their only successful "argument" is killing people who disagree with them.
