Popular conservative radio host Michael Savage has also joined the call to help those suffering from this devastating illness. In his new book, "Liberalism is a Mental Disorder," Mr. Savage shares his observations of the affliction he likens to a national cancer.

Years before I even heard of Michael Savage, perhaps even years before there was a Michael Savage, I developed a theory that Liberalism was a brain disorder, like organic brain syndrome, that caused its victim's thought processes to be 180 degress out of phase. In other words, they get everything backwards! That is why they think evil is good and good is evil, that is why they think they are right and we are wrong. It is why liberal policies designed to eradicate poverty create more poverty, why liberal policies designed to eliminate bigotry create more bigotry, etc. etc, etc.

Pretty much, MoveOn material in print form. Self appointed whiners are global movement issues.

NEW YORK, NY: When Zacharia Goodman recently sought out the help of a therapist, it was no mystery as to what was ailing him. The 27-year-old copy editor was so consumed by his belief that President George W. Bush stole the 2004 election that he was having trouble sleeping, completing rudimentary tasks at work, and carrying on conversations about topics not related to politics.

The therapist he consulted wrote Goodman a prescription for the social anxiety drug Paxil and encouraged him to spend less time reading left-wing Web logs and listening to Air America.

"Nothing very serious, son. Just a case of CKL Syndrome -chronic kook liberalism. Take two of these and call me in the morning."
