Normally I link to a particularly good or informative article here but today, I'm recommending a book. The Liberal Mind: The Psychological Causes of Political Madness, by Lyle H. Rossiter, Jr., M.D. I have admittedly not read the book myself yet, but the following quote makes it a must read for me:
"So extravagant are the patterns of thinking, emoting, behaving and relating that characterize the liberal mind that its relentless protests and demands become understandable only as a disorder of the psyche."
I couldn't have said it better myself. How else to explain the failure of a person to ignore facts and logic in favor of emotion to end up harming the very people they claim to be protecting? How else can you explain anything that has ever come out of House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi's (D. CA) mouth?
