Because the "involved" ones aren't actually "Liberals" at all. Not in the classic sense. They are radicals, and the core tenet of the radical left is anger. It's how they bond.
The uninvolved ones, the unknowingly leftist, Democrat drone flock-members who reflexively pull the "D" lever, are usually just generally people who are unhappy in life anyway.
Their lives suck because they forgot to go to college, or to actually study when they got there, or they got stoned and turned forty before they remembered to get a job, or mommy didn't breastfeed them long enough, or any combination of a million other stupid reasons one can pick to be a pathetic loser and resent society.
As long as they can focus that angst outward, they don't have to face their own shortcomings.
They see in the success of others something they want, but they know they neither deserve or will ever attain, so their petulant envy manifests as anger at anyone but themselves.
They're all either in therapy, giving therapy, or want therapy.
Liberal are also "cool" because they grew up being cool hippies with mom and dad as uncool. They can't become uncool like mom and dad. No way. When mom and dad is feeding then you think about how cool you are -- if you are not fed for a couple of days coolness is not important. TV is important to liberals because they get their coolness from watch a cool media.
Marshal McLuhan did thing of TV as a cool media in not quite the same way. But cool it is for the generation raised on superfly junk.
OK...that's the liberals' excuse.
So what's the excuse from conservatives who hated (hate) Bush?
They thought electing Obama would be the end of their endless quest for a utopia that does not exist.
The heart of liberalism is that people don’t have all they want or need, therefore someone must be purposefully preventing them from having it.
I think “hate” is used almost exclusively on the left in mainstream politics these days, and I also think it is used to control people (weak minded types) by those in leadership roles on the left. Bush was hated with such energy that it suggests the limits of sanity are breached.
Because they’re nasty, malcontented s.o.b.’s who always need something to bitch about.
It’s the nature of the beast.
Some people actually did expect the atmosphere to calm after a big “O” win - since the press would no longer be obligated to view every story as a pending disaster due to Bush. But that was indeed shortsighted as every story IS a pending disaster (ultimately due to Bush/Cheney/47% of the citizens not calling themselves Democrats, etc.) that needs a government takeover and reeducation camps or at least reeducation addresses to congress.
Wouldn’t it be great if instead of crying “YOU LIE!” the representative called out “Wolverines!”?
Bartmess’ Law: Liberals are never happy, and never grateful. If you believe anything else, you are only going to get hurt.
Because not everyone agrees with them.
And we certainly can't have that.
You might as well ask why is water wet.
It is the nature of demonRATS to be angry!
Emotional and stupid come to mind.
It’s cause and effect in action. Because they are angry, the result is moonbat liberalism.
Actually, I disagree. What bothers me most about liberals is that the things they hated under Bush are okay now. Recession is no big deal if Obama is president. War in Afghanistan? Oh, it’s CUTE when Obama does it. Bombings in Iraq? Hey, let’s not dwell on it, let’s think about something pleasant, like Michelle’s new dress or the kids’ new dog! All their principles have melted away and they are just pleased to look at their pretty, shiny new Prezzy.
obama is not a liberal. He is a commie who is not only pushing totalitarian commie policies, but selling us out to the muslims.
If the liberals want a good place to direct their anger, let them attack commies and muslims. (After all, plenty of old-style liberals like JFK were anti-communist.) Conservatives would be very happy with that arrangement.
“Why Are Liberals still Angry?”
Because, like the ‘racist’ label they throw out, they are childish, spoiled, unproductive, non self-reliant cretins.
And they get all twisted when they can’t have their way.
Hate is their agenda.
They hated Nixon, Reagan, Newt...everyone. It is their motivation.
