The Fine Art of Projection

This article by one Mike Hersh is a thorough laundry list of everything leftists fear the most. Sample:

Freedom. Free speech. Free thoughts. Free people. Why? They feel insecure in an uncertain universe.
......
[they] opposed reforms which protect and invigorate capitalism
.....
[...] believe in absurd contradictions, impervious to logic or education.
.....
[...]flock to propagandists
.....
[...]support idiotic, even fatal policies because they place nonsense over knowledge
.....
They brutally suppress anyone who questions authority, and they always obey abusive controllers. They are afraid of their own freedom. They are even more afraid of yours.
For some reason, though, everywhere there should be the words "left wingers," "lefists," and so on, the words "right winger" appear instead. Must be a typo, or some kind of new browser glitch.

This stuff refutes itself--just add sense!

Amazing!

Plus, if you act now, you get a free generalization, two knee-jerks and a mirror.

I've said this before, and I'll keep saying it: we are the liberals. Somewhere, a broad switch took place.

The left worships power and authority, fears freedom, pines for greater government control of everyone's lives. They also prefer centralized authority by wide margins.

They are not liberals.

Those that bite the hand that feeds them wind up kissing the boot that kicks them. Old saying.
