Once you've watched liberals long enough to understand how they think -- scratch that, how they feel -- they become extraordinarily predictable.
To begin with, the liberal agenda is, in many respects, the same as it was in the thirties. Whether you call it communism, fascism, socialism, liberalism, or progressivism, the only real difference is how much they believe they can get away with, the way they sell it to people, and the latest trendy name for what they believe.
So, once the liberals pick a policy from their stale program to push, the next step is to get it implemented. This is where liberals have problems because whether a policy makes sense, is practical, or actually improves people's lives is of secondary importance to them. What is important to liberals is whether supporting or opposing that policy makes them feel good about themselves.

They put their colon first?
communists are democRATS in a hurry... with guns!!!

“They put their colon first?”
Apparently so....
and all this no-drilling is not about the environment, it’s about hurting our economy and forcing us to all use mass transit where they can control our freedom.

Yes indeed. Liberals live in a make believe world of illusions and delusions which all mankind is subject to but some pursue with relentless detemination to enact into literal law a system that is evil to mankind and would destroy not only themselves and their families, but all mankind. Their frustration brings them to fascism of the sort where deluded people gladly follow other evil people much as the german people followed Hitler in the 1930’s and caused the deaths of millions of people.
The liberal agenda is militant marxism, a fascist ideology of blood letting. And only because they refuse to believe that the God of Israel is the one true God and His only begotten Son is Jesus Christ of Nazareth. Therefore,
Romans 1 18. For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in unrighteousness;
19. Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for God hath shewed it unto them.
20. For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
21. Because that, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, neither were thankful; but became vain in their imaginations, and their foolish heart was darkened.
22. Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,
23. And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image made like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted beasts, and creeping things.
24. Wherefore God also gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of their own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between themselves:
25. Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.
26. For this cause God gave them up unto vile affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:
27. And likewise also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman, burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that which is unseemly, and receiving in themselves that recompence of their error which was meet.
28. And even as they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, God gave them over to a reprobate mind, to do those things which are not convenient;
29. Being filled with all unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,
30. Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters, inventors of evil things, disobedient to parents,
31. Without understanding, covenantbreakers, without natural affection, implacable, unmerciful:
32. Who knowing the judgment of God, that they which commit such things are worthy of death, not only do the same, but have pleasure in them that do them.
Liberals claim they are about freedom, but want to control every aspect of our lives. They always lie. Their policies make no sense because they run of feelings and not facts.
[this no-drilling is not about the environment, its about hurting our economy and forcing us to all use mass transit where they can control our freedom.]
Our American forefathers would have them tarred and feathered and driven out of America to the communist countries they so love.
Liberals believe they can force social change in America, at home and at our businesses, by keeping energy cost inflated and doing not one damn thing to increase our energy supplies.
“If you are just getting up, be thankful you missed Robert Wexler on with the Friends pushing his new book Fire-Breathing Liberal.”
I’m glad I missed it!
Park your SUV at the airport parking lot 2-miles away and ride the automated
train to the airport, where every plane can see that someone is actually using
the shuttle that "Feel-Good Liberals" spent BILLIONS on.
Did I say/mention, forced?
Great cartoon. The truth needs to be told loudly.
While the 'boldface' is the bottom-line... each of these isms are distinct and their differences should be acknowledged. There are few liberals left in Congress. Most call themselves progressives but are truly socialists. Teddy K., Kerry, Durbin, Biden... are simply closet-socialists.
IMO, Joe Lieberman and Ben Nelson are good examples of liberals. As for communists there are more than you think... and when you think, think Congressional Black Caucus.
So prophetic and right on.
I've seen San Fran Nan (Pelosi) twice, over the past week,look right into the camera and lie through her teeth to the point that her botoxed-injected, face was twitching like a squirrel's tail.
As the old saying goes, if a liberals lips are moving--they are lying!!!
It’s in layers: scratch a Liberal and underneath is a Communist; scratch a Communist and underneath is a New World Order manipulator.
Mixed in with them are a motley crew of nihilists, back-to-the-cavers, environmentalists.

IMHO, the fact that they do lie...and now that their lies can be EASILY exposed in alternative media, a good shareholders attorney could easily make the argument that the Board has failed to ensure adequate editorial oversight resulting in significant loss of value to shareholders.
It is also about (some) who are glad when our economy sucks and are intentionally laboring to the detriment of our country.
Furthermore, the Lib/Socialist/Rats WANT the economy to stay stagnant or even, worsen, (especially now, due to high energy costs) as they are convinced they can lay most of the blame (thanks to their partners-in-crime, the corrupt, in-the-tank, MSM, who will espouse the DhimiCrats lies and talking points) on Bush/Republicans/Conservatives and hope to ride Americans' misery, right into the White House and an increased majority in Congress.
Shameless, charlatans, all!!!
They couldn't name a damned thing Obama wanted to do, but both swooned over how well he speaks in public, "and I put a lot of stock in that," one said.
I told her "I consider a liberal someone who votes for Obama because he reads speeches real well."
That one is great also. Those should be printed in color card stock and mailed to every voter.
COMMUNISTS always lie.
And...”liberals” always were, are now, and always will be one of two things: COMMUNISTS or USEFUL IDIOTS!
I am so pleased to see this article published on Town Hall.
So?.....When are the “Talking Pumpkin Head” of talk radio going to start using only word that really fits? COMMUNISM! Except for Michael Savage they are bunch of weenies.
Marxists have no problem believing two contradictory things at the same time, so they should have no problem lying when necessary to advance their cause.
There are only two kinds: Communists and Useful Idiots.
These air heads fall into the category of “Useful Idiot”!
Mixed in with them are a motley crew of nihilists, back-to-the-cavers, environmentalists
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Useful Idiots!
( And throw in a few million who work for the government schools)

“oh, obama is something special...he transcends all categories...he brings people together.”
just like polt pot, ho chi minh, adolf hitler, josef stalin and vladimir lenin.
the only real difference is how much they believe they can get away with
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
The communists among them would kill us if they could. They just can’t get away with it...( yet!). The Useful Idiots would do thinking it was saving the whales.
“shameless charlatans all...”
correction: “shameless, low-life, scu&bag communist swine.”
IMHO
$5/gal is the commies’ plan coming to fruition. The bankruptcy of Capitalism is their goal. The DC, Hollywood, Media Coalition is a powerful force.

I wonder what would have happened if you had, after this remark, replied "yeah, but isn't the excitement you have when you hear him speak in public, isn't that more of a feeling than a reasoned reaction?"
I'm not putting it quite the way I'd like here. But that article did give me a clue as to how to deal with this kind of person. The clue is this: listen to them until you discover the "feeling" in their position. Then gently point it out, in a way that is calculated to not engage their ego and cause them to become defensive. This may mean that you don't try to "win" the argument. Instead, you try to reveal the truth to them just a little; your goal is for them to think about the exchange later, when they're not in a one-on-one argument that they may feel they have to win. Maybe, in the quiet of their own thoughts, they will remember the exchange with you and begin to question their reliance on feeling instead of thinking.
Like I’ve said,
a liberal approaches a policy issue and thinks about it as a 12 yr old girl would.
“Is this policy ‘nice’, or ‘mean’”?
You want to see a lib get his back up?
State these undeniable truths about liberalism to him:
1) The core of liberalism is using force to make the responsible and innocent pay for the consequences of the irresponsible choices of others.
2) Liberals support no individual freedoms outside of those related to consequence-free sexual behavior choices. All other individual actions are to be controlled, taxed and punished.
What gets me is the frickin’ everyday morons that vote for the fascists.
Every single one of them that I’ve talked to has this mentality:
Yes, I support [socialist] policies X,Y,and Z, but I’m not a socialist, and neither are the democrats.
Although that just got a little harder for them.
Seriously, this author, Hawkins, must be reading my posts on FR!
( ;=) )
Every point he makes is one that I’ve held and voice on here often. OK, OK, so he’s not stealing my ideas. But it was a GREAT article.
Genuine Liberals are almost all control freaks. Their blind followers are usually those who want something for “free”.
I like John but he is a poor writer, I’m thinking at 8th or 9th grade level.
I’m not surprised he is popular on FR.
Well-reasoned observations.
"Much of the social history of the Western world, over the past three decades, has been a history of replacing what worked with what sounded good." --Thomas Sowell
My observations of liberals over several decades caused my "Theory of Liberals".
Without going into detail, my theory is that a liberal is a person who lacks the gene required by humans to process the reality of a situation. The empirical evidence supporting the theorys premise is overwhelming.
roger that...
No, you’ve put it quite well. I find this more often in women than men, as unpopular as it may be to point it out—they simply get all hot and bothered about Obama, and they don’t give a damn if you point out they’re feeling, not thinking, because they see that as a sexist attack on “emotional intelligence” and that other Oprah crap. Pointing out that they’re using feelings to make a choice which should be based on logic is read as an insult to how women are” or something.
