You're exactly right and this has been my exact experience and thoughts about and with my so called “liberal” friends, relatives and acquaintances in my life.
It's called hypocrisy. It's called blindness.
These liberal/progressives jam their advice down everyone's throats on how to live and they don't want to take the blame for when it goes wrong.
Pro-abortion women BREAK the maternal ties with their children and don’t even realize it.....it makes the children DOUBT whether they would have been aborted or not.
If this statement is true, it makes absolutely no sense that the mother has total control over whether the child is allowed to live or be killed by literally being torn into pieces.
Totally contradictory ideas!! No wonder feminazis are so messed up!
Walker’s lousy parenting sounds to me like it was just a symptom of swaggering self-absorption, of the sort that can appear in people of all sorts of ideological persuasions. Idiocy like criticizing her daughter as hopelessly ignorant of important things because she’s “not from the South” has nothing to do with any brand of “feminism”. Walker was in the South when she married Rebecca’s father, so whose fault is it that she moved away and took her daughter to grow up elsewhere? Alice Walker’s problem is that she’s an arrogant jerk, not that she’s a “feminist”.
They want to take care of “The Children” at a distance and with taxpayer money, none of that messy stuff.
What did Obama or his wife say “punished by having a baby?”
It's all an abstraction to them.
Liberals love the IDEA of children—but not always the reality. They love the IDEA of freedom, but often find the reality of it quite intimidating. They are not unlike the Scribes and Pharisees: they loved the IDEA of God—but not so much His Reality.
Fortunately, (and not just for liberals), despite their self-righteous indignation at having the validity of their Idea questioned, and their insistence on preserving that Idea even to the point of destroying the flesh and blood which embodied it, that Reality’s response in the end was to offer up a prayer for forgiveness.
Now that is real—and LIBERAL—love!

And that is Love most liberal!
Will anybody read anything written by those two 50 years from now? Only if forced to by English teachers, I predict.
IT'S FOR THE CHILL'RUN...
A conservative mother and father can do, what a whole liberal village cannot.
Question authority. ESPECIALLY question the authority of the socialist radical who seeks to overthrow the dominant cultural values and replace them with “what”? A socialist utopia? How well does that EVER work?
Liberals have a god complex and believe they can “create” a better world. THEY are the ones. THEY must be in charge. And if in the end, 50million babies have been torn apart through abortion, well, their intentions were GOOD.
I actually enjoyed The Color Purple as well as a short story called, ‘The Revelation’. Never bought into her liberal feminist crap though. As far as Angelou, she’s too full of herself.
I always say they love the masses. It’s people they hate.
This seems like a special story because the mother is a Feminazi; however, millions of latch-key-children are getting the very same message as they come home to empty houses after school.
I feel bad for the daughter. Though she is a liberal, even she is far too the right of her nutcase mother - Alice Walker.
Stalin would have loved Alice Walker - both way to the left and both treated their children like dirt. Stalin was rare among history’s evil dictators as most at least treated their children as if they loved them.
Narcissism at it's finest. The daughter was lucky...often narcissists fly into a murderous rage when they are outed.
I think you are right on. Alice Walker is exactly like Tony Sopranos mom.
