Lyle
Rossiter, in his book The Liberal Mind:
Psychological Causes Of Political Madness, states that liberals exhibit
madness by their “systematic destruction of the foundations on which an ordered
liberty depends; ... only irrational thinking could trade individual liberty
for government coercion, sacrificing the pride of self-reliance for welfare
dependency”, and other liberal faults that we see daily from the Obama
administration.
Mr. Rossiter
has it right. When one can look at
various failed governments around the world (for example: Russia, Cuba, Sudan,
North Korea) and see that these states that completely and severely control the
lives and actions of their citizens, to the extent that the citizens have no
liberty or freedom, no wealth and often no food for themselves or their
children, how can liberals like the Obama
Administration look at America, with its (formerly) large middle class,
its successful industries and our generally happy people and begin tightening
the screws on U.S. citizens (via EPA regulations, increased taxes, unsustainable
debt and unconstitutional executive orders and memos) that promise to destroy
the nation’s industries, impoverish the middle class and make virtual slaves of
the nation‘s poorer citizens by entrapping them into perpetual subsistence to
Democrats in exchange for their slavish vote to assure the continued flow of
government handouts and goodies?
Liberals who
are responsible for the downgrade in the quality of life in America must be
insane (to paraphrase Mr. Rossiter) or they would not be systematically tearing
apart the nation where most people in the world would like to live (as proven
by the inundation of our southern border under Obama’s misguided immigration
policy). I guess that’s why our president
is affectionately named Barack Insane Obama.
The name fits the ideology.
