I can never get them to say exactly why they hate Bush -- they just do.

They themselves do not know why they hate Bush. Many of them do not even know that they hate Bush. Most of them would become offended if you told them that their hatred of Bush is beyond their control, akin to a possesion. Those who would acknowledge that they hate Bush would insist they hate Bush for rational reasons, policy reasons that they can articulate. If you were to tell them that their hatred has another source, beyond their cognition, they would be mightily offended.

They hate Bush because they are in bondage. They are in bondage to their own egos disguised as the intellectual flavor of the era. Post modernism has been descried on this thread, and rightly so, as the corrupting seeping spring of this condition. But in a greater sense, post modernism is only the latest intellectual hiding place where the leftist can enjoy his bondage. Breech this barrier with reason or experience and the Great Parasitic Ego will erect another.

They hate Bush because he is Billy Budd and, as an innocent, he is a figure of reproach which must be destroyed because he represents the truth which would destroy the Great EGO. The reaction is not cerebral but instinctual and it is disguised with all manner of clever rationalizations.

Well they see him as either the innocent or the crafty Skull and Bones manipulator. Either way, he's wrong to them. One urbanite complained that he only appeals to the flyover states. This neophyte wanted to erradicate the Electoral College so that the states with big cities could decide our presidents once and for all.

Well a lot of those mountain and plains folk enlisted in the services after 9/11. I guess we need them after all, don't we? And we need their simple common sense, too. I think we need it more than ever.

forrest, i have a different angle on this -- the particular part of their ego that is affected is that part of all of us that induces us to fail, the old saw of snatching defeat from the jaws of victory.

i firmly believe there is a part of all of us that somehow screws up on purpose for reasons i cannot imagine -- i'm sure it has happened to most of us at one time or another.

self-guilt and a lot of stupid behaviour is a direct outcome of this, and the demonrats and many America haters have a really bad case of it...

My comment to rabid Bush-haters is to tell them that their feelings are simply a reflection of their own soul which they are projecting onto an undeserving person due to their own feelings of inadequacy.

Maybe it doesn't always get them to come around, but it's the truth.
