“It’s unreal and a perfect example of the liberals mind. When confronted with a different idea than his own, he psychologically and viscerally rejects the possibility that there could be any merit.”

Have you ever read the message boards on a lib website? It’s all the same opinion, over and over. No honest debate about things—it’s not tolerated. It’s like they’re afraid of ideas different from their own.

Agreed. Their greatest fear is a different idea; they aren't afraid of tyranny or enemies of the US. But an opinion different than their own is a horribly frightful thing.

They lack the confidence to discuss civilly the merits of their own opinions and lash out with insults at people who think differently. They always attack the intellect and motives of those whom they do not agree with. It's so interesting too that these progressives see no problem with proclaiming themselves as perfect models of tolerance. They remind me of the saying that there are only innocent men in prison (in their minds, of course). With liberals we now have the least tolerant people claiming they favor diversity! We have people who call anyone who doesn't agree with them a fascist, yet they, well they're the high priests of pluralism, a special pluralism where we all agree.
