Just when liberals thought it safe to start identifying themselves as liberals, an acclaimed veteran psychiatrist is making the case that the ideology motivating them is actually a mental disorder.

%u201CBased on striking irrational beliefs and emotions, modern liberals relentlessly undermine the most important principals on which our freedoms were focused%u201D says Dr. Lyle Rossiter author of The Liberal Mind. The Psychological Causes of Political Madness. www.libertymind.com

"Like spoiled angry children they rebel against the normal responsibilities of adulthood and demand that a parental government meet their needs from cradle to grave."

"The kind of liberalism being displayed by the two major candidates for the Democratic Presidential nomination can only be understood as a psychological disorder. A social scientist who understands human nature will not dismiss the vital roles of free choice, voluntary cooperation, and moral integrity - as liberals do. A political leader who understands human nature will not ignore individual differences in talent, drive, personal appeal, and work ethic; and then try to impose economic and social equality on the population - as liberals do. And a Legislator who understands human nature will not create an environment of rules which over regulate and over tax the nation%u2019s citizens, corrupts their character, and reduces them to wards of the state - as liberals do."

"The liberal agenda prays on weakness and feelings of inferiority in the population by, among other things, creating and reinforcing perceptions of victimization; satisfy infantile clams of entitlement, indulgence, and compensation; augmenting primitive feelings of envy; and rejecting the sovereignty of the individual subornation him to the will of the government."

"The roots of liberalism and its associated madness can be clearly identified by understanding how children develop from infancy to adulthood and how distorted development produces the irrational belief of the liberal mind. When the modern liberal mind wines about imaginary victims, rages against imaginary villains, and seeks above all else to run the lives of persons competent to run their own lives, the neurosis of the liberal mind becomes painfully obvious."

Eric Hoffer,www.erichoffer.net a self-educated longshoreman who came to fame in the 1950%u2019s of his first book, The True Believer said:

"A man is likely to mind his own business when it%u2019s worth minding. When it is not he takes his mind off his own meaningless affairs by minding other peoples business. "

"The less justified a man is in claiming excellence in his own self, the more ready he is to claim all excellence for his nation, his religion, his race or his holy cause."

where have all the people gone from the forum? It would be really sad if it died out of lack of interest.
