Ever since I jumped into the Protein Wisdom fight, I've been browsing a lot of Leftist blogs and reading what they have to say. I'm a hot head, I admit it, but the Lefty blogs don't even make me mildly angry. The arguments are so weak. Well, mostly they're not arguments at all, just general, free-flowing rants with lots of pejoratives, e.g. Republicans and/or Bush is/are dictators, Nazis, attacking the Constitution, suppressing freedom of speech or the press, racists, fascists, haters, blah blah blah. No actual facts may be found in support of the wild claims.
Take this example, an actual utterance by moonbat Kevin Barrett, who is discussed later in this post. Barrett wrote: It is time for Americans to rise up in revolt against the fake terror masters who are looting U.S. taxpayers, torching our Constitution, destroying our economy, and threatening nuclear Armageddon.
What fake terror masters? No one is identified. How are they looting U.S. taxpayers? No example or actual incident is described. Same is true for the rest of the wild claims about torching the Constitution, destroying the economy (which is booming, by the way) and threatening nuclear Armageddon.
This kind of empty rhetoric is typical of the Left. You can find many examples of this yourself. Just read through a Leftist blog and you will find many wild, unsupported claims.
Another example is Dr. Demento Frisch, who often complains that she is receiving "many, many threats" from Protein Wisdom readers but never gives a single example.
Liberal/Leftism seems more of an attitude, a bad attitude, than a political philosophy. Old Michael Savage, himself a likely candidate for a Prozac prescription, did say one thing I agree with, that liberalism is a mental disorder. Perhaps it should be included in the medical books. The symptoms are extreme anger accompanied by indecipherable ranting, delusions manifesting themselves as conspiracy theories, poor personal hygiene, self-loathing and bad hairstyles.
We can add still another symptom to Lefty Dementia: flaming hypocrisy. Frisch threatens a 2 year old child with sexual perversion and death, then denies it, then claims she's the victim. One of her more deranged defenders wrote to her at her blog, advising her that it is useless to argue with us mad dogs, that instead of debating mad dogs you bash them over the head with a club. He then adds, "they're haters." (He wants to club us to death and WE'RE the haters?)
Dr. Deb Frisch is only one example of this malady. This week in the news we have Kevin Barrett, a professor at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, who is now teaching a class on the subject of how the 9/11 Muslim attack on America was really "an inside job."
This would be laughable but this mother of all conspiracy theories is widely believed by the Left, and a number of Moonbat college professors are openly championing it as truth. Some of the websites that proclaim this fantasy are Muslim-Jewish-Christian Alliance for 9/11 Truth, Scholars for 9/11 Truth, and Scientific Panel for the Investigation of 9/11. (They also claim that the London bombings of 7/7/2005 were another false terror attack.) I wrote to one of these organizations asking that, if I joined, would I be provided a tinfoil hat or would I have to make my own? Strangely, I received no reply.
Even the dwarf who heads the Democratic Party, Howard Dean, has given some credence to the theory and Charlie Sheen, alleged actor, is a true believer, calling for a "new investigation of 9/11."
The "inside job" theory is that President Bush, the wily devil, actually planted powerful explosives throughout the Twin Towers, which were then destroyed in a "controlled demolition." His evil goal: to inflame Americans so he would have an excuse to make war on the Middle East.
I still don't know how Bush persuaded those 19 Muslims to hijack four planes and fly them into the Twin Towers and the Pentagon. (The fourth plane, United Flight 93, crashed in Pennsylvania.) Apparently, the much photographed planes crashed into the towers and then Bush, or maybe Karl Rove or Dick Cheney threw the switches that started the "controlled demolition," no doubt cackling with evil laughter as they did so.
Hmm, we can add still another symptom of Lefty dementia: bullying and intimidation. The kooks at UC Santa Cruz are proud that they have thrice physically prevented military recruiters from attending their job fair; other Leftist cretins have published private information of conservative bloggers and pundits on the internet to intimidate them (and then falsely claim we did it to them instead); other cyber bullies regularly launch illegal denial of service attacks to shut down conservative blogs and websites.
Then there is the physical bullying. See Leftist punks get in the face of Michelle Jacobsen of Hot Air, shouting obscenities and calling her names in an attempt to prevent her from filming their public hatefest (HT Michelle Malkin).
One final attribute: the slavish belief in communism or socialism. College campuses today are havens for old-style Marxists who long for the great proletarian revolution, refusing to face the fact that their socialist dreams will never be realized and that the world has moved on. What can you say about people who desire a form of oppressive dictatorship that failed miserably?
Communism killed around 100 million souls, many of them by starvation. When choosing between capitalism, a shining success, and communism, a dismal failure, they choose the latter. A related and more recent example of this disconnect is their preference for Muslim tyrannies over the pluralistic and tolerant nation of Israel. If it's evil, they're for it, and if it's good, they're against it.
Old Michael Savage was only partly right: Liberalism is more than a mental disorder, it is actually a form of insanity. Leftists are just plain nuts. I rest my case.
