You are absolutely right. I know a number of liberal Jews who are utterly convinced that if something like a Palin Presidency occurred that they would be forcibly baptized. When I tell them they are living in a fantasy world and ask for evidence, for example a quote that shows its lurking somewhere in the background, they get mad at me.
And let me guess, then they change the subject. They need the issue too much to test it against reality.
The liberal bubble must be kept inflated at all costs. If the liberal has to believe that 2+2=5000 to keep the bubble inflated, that is what he will believe. It is breathtaking to observe so much intellectual dishonesty in action.
