I think the #1 reason most liberals are miserable is because they became aware their mothers would have aborted them had their just been enough cheap abortion mills around to service them.

I've got a friend who is a DIE HARD democrat. This guy could suck the life out of a room over the phone. Last time we really talked, he was telling me how he seemed to be getting more angrier and bitter.

A number of years ago, he was whinning and complaining how he couldn't deal with the cold and snow anymore, and was thinking of moving to Az. He was probably about 35 at the time.

He's a dealership auto mechanic, so he works indoors. He would go on and on and on about how terrible winters were, and the driving and the shoveling and this and that.

When he finally stopped, and I imagine, waited for me to share my woes of winter with him, I explained that I work in construction...OUTSIDE, often 200' up on a tower, with a wind blowing at 30-50mph, sometimes my days are 10-12 hours long. I often drive 65-75 miles as to his 20.

And that when I go on vacation, I go to Colorado...to ski and maybe snowmobile.

When something gets a little to hard to do, he throws up his hand or throws a tool or just throws a hissy fit, and announces to everyone that he can't do it. I've done many projects with/for him where "I knew how" to do it and he didn't and couldn't. Never mind that it wasn't my line of work and no one ever taught me.

There are probably 2 words I've heard from him more than any others "I CAAAAN'T" (WAAAAAAAH), then he gets mad. Mad at himself, because he's so stupid. Mad at others, because its not his fault. Mad at others because nobody taught him. Mad at others because nobody will help.

He is what I think of, when I think of a liberal. Always whinning and complaining about something. And everything that is wrong in life, or just the slight bit difficult, is ALWAYS somebody's fault.

Go to a Kos thread the home for depressed white liberals lashing out and inciting others to lash out in mindless rage, its an advertisement for anti-depressants.

When you view life from the aspect that there is a sovereign an loving God, that created you and wants to have a relationship with you, that gives you (real) HOPE.

When you realize that life is just not random happenings, but that God works out all things for good, for all that know and love him.

How much of what makes people angry is envy or covetousness? THEY have this, or THEY have that. SHE's prettier. HE's smarter. HIS life is better. THEIR life is easier.

Never any contentment in Gods sovereignty, and who, what, how or why God created them.

Not ONLY is there no contentment, there is NO THANKFULLNESS.

FOR ANYTHING.

LIFE OWES...THEM

I’m basically happy unless I think about Obama and what liberalism has done to our country.

Then I’m cranky for a while.

Not ONLY is there no contentment, there is NO THANKFULLNESS.

I could write something here, but it's already been done:

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.

Some things never change.

Yes. A certain Mrs. Palin should occupy that center spot!

I disagree with number 2. Many liberals are quite religious. Some are Catholic, or belong to one of those touchy-feely churches who concentrate on Jesus’ tendency to feed the poor and hobnob with the homeless and destitute.

Must add Michelle Bachmann and Kristi Noem also.

Of course, you could add hundreds more attractive conservative females, and also there is an unlimited list of very ugly liberal females.
