I read a fascinating article once on why liberals do things that are the exact opposite of logical. The author posits its because for thousands of years people did logical things and were still not living in utopia. Therefore doing the exact opposite of logical will lead us to utopia. Nobody, other than Jimmy Carter, ever thought to give them everything they wanted and Jimmy obviously didnt go far enough.
On the other hand, it may be that our president is a traitor to America and western civilization and he wants a new Caliphate to rise up and turn us all into slaves. (Im not sure where he thinks hell be in this new Caliphate, but he sees himself in some central role. Or, he believes it will not affect him. I suspect he lives in an imaginary world where hes continuously accepting the Nobel prize.)

Sounds about right.
