A Guide to the Liberal Mind

Quote
(snip)

If you believe that freedom of expression is sacrosanct but would like nothing better than to deny it to anyone who doesn't share your views, you are a liberal.

If you believe that the 1st Amendment separates church from state, but not state from church, you are a liberal.
(My note: Three is no such "separation" guarantee in the Constitution.)

If you believe that the 2nd Amendment was the founding fathers' big mistake and that the 10th Amendment shouldn't be taken seriously, you are a liberal.

If you believe that endlessly discussing a problem amounts to actually solving it, you are a liberal.

If you believe that the results of progressive programs are irrelevant and that only good intentions count, you are a liberal.

If you believe that Mark Foley, who wrote salacious e-mails to a young but legally adult congressional page, was an evil libertine, while Gerry Studds, who had sex with an underage congressional page, was a knight in shining armor, you are a liberal intellectual.

If you believe that Obama is an intellectual giant whose IQ is off the charts even though you have no idea what his IQ actually is, you are a liberal.

If you believe that a decades-old drunk-driving episode in George W. Bush's biography comes under the "people's right to know" doctrine while the entire past of Barack Obama is protected by his right to privacy, you are a liberal.

If you believe that we can spend and borrow our way out of the recession in keeping with the thoroughly discredited Keynesian model, you are a liberal.

If you believe that taxpayers don't change their behavior when the government tries to squeeze more tax money out of them, you are a liberal.

If you believe that Americans are undertaxed, while carefully hiding your own money in offshore tax shelters, you are a liberal.

If you believe, with Nancy Pelosi and Valerie Jarrett, that unemployment benefits are a boon to the economy (but without taking this brilliant insight to its logical conclusion: that the path to unprecedented prosperity lies through 100% unemployment), you are a liberal.

If you believe that affirmative action improves the lot of poor minorities rather than miring them in perpetual misery and dependence, you are a liberal.

If you believe that Lyndon Johnson's War on Poverty failed because not enough money (a trifling $16 trillion) was spent on it, you are a liberal.

If you believe that God's middle name is Kennedy, you are a liberal.

If you believe that Jimmy Carter, who has been working indefatigably over the last three decades to subvert his country's foreign policy, is the best ex-president ever, you are a liberal.

If you believe that the Fox News Channel is the modern-day equivalent of Völkischer Beobachter and The New York Times a light unto the world, and whatever the Times publishes is God-given truth while whatever it deems unfit to print doesn't deserve to be known, you are a liberal.

If you angrily castigate your compatriots for being profligate with their energy consumption while generously allowing yourself to use more than 20 times as much energy as a regular household (see Gore, Al), you are a liberal.

If you believe that your choice of a car affects the planet's climate while sunspot activity doesn't, you are a liberal.

Liberalism IS a Disease!

The nice thing about liberals is they really aren't bound by their beliefs. They adapt them quickly to suit their agenda.
There were only two options for gender. At last count there are at least 12, according to libs. By that standard, I'm a male lesbian.
