Is Liberalism a Form of Mental Illness?

Sometimes I wonder. Last night the State of Massachusetts elected their first Republican to Congress in 38 years. His entire platform seemed to be “vote for me and I’ll defeat Obamacare.” In the days leading up to the election, many prominent Democrats including Presidents Clinton and Obama himself campaigned for Martha Coakley, the Democratic candidate. It wasn’t enough. Scott Brown, the Republican, won the seat. Not just any seat either – the seat formerly held by Ted Kennedy, the “Liberal Lion.” How did the left respond? With introspection? Self examination? Not exactly:
According to House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer, Brown won because voters are upset at GOP obstructionism, not the Democrat’s agenda. So let me see if I get this… voters are upset at the GOP, so they punish the GOP by electing a GOP Senator? I think Mr. Hoyer needs to call his therapist.
Howard Dean thinks the election is a sign that Democrats should stop working with the GOP. Excuse me doctor, when in the past 3-1/2 years have the Democrats been “working with the GOP?” They spent 2007 and 2008 trying to destroy the Bush presidency, and all of 2009 shutting Republicans entirely out of the legislative process. Quick, call your shrink – you’re delusional.
Keith Oblerman thinks Brown won because the Massachusetts voters are racist and don’t want a black President to succeed. Huh? Since when does opposing Socialism and authoritarianism equate with racism, unless Keith Olberman thinks that blacks are too stupid to get through life without a nany state government. Is Olberman projecting?
These are oppinions from “main stream” liberals. The rants on liberal blogs were much worse, some very offensive and vile stuff out there. The only conclusion I can come to is that yes, liberalism is a mental illness.
