THE ARROGANCE OF BEING A LIBERAL

When somebody thinks they are better than anyone else, you’d probably call that person an “elitist”, I would call them arrogant also. We have in our midst a group of people who fit into that category – the liberals (or progressives as they liked to be called today) are poster children for this “honored” designation.

So many of them, in ordinary life, the news media, and certain celebrities, are so liberal they don’t even realize it. It’s the arrogance, the attitude, and the smugness. They are all so inbred – they only listen to each other with the same warped views and they mock people with differing points of view than theirs. They all think that they are better and smarter than everyone else. It doesn’t matter what their intentions are, it is part of who they are and they are too blind to see it. In addition, the liberals think they are better than most Americans because they care more deeply about the environment, minorities, and human rights. Their ego knows no bounds. They are legends in their own minds.

This condescending attitude is the reason why liberals like to ridicule upstanding people like Ronald Reagan, George W. Bush, Dick Cheney, Sarah Palin etal. This derision takes the form of saying things like, “He’s only a “B” movie actor” (Ronald Reagan), “He’s stupid and an imbecile” (George W. Bush), “He’s evil and should be in jail” (Dick Cheney), “She’s a quitter and a hypocrite, and a poor mother” (Sarah Palin). No matter what good these people did in their lives or in their job, it always comes down to derision of their opponents. Saul Alinsky (an acknowledged mentor to both Obama and Hillary) was a great proponent of that method of trying to gain the upper hand in a political or social debate. Make fun of your opponent and therefore “minimalize” him so that he loses all credibility in the mind of the public.

The liberals always seem to find some statement or action by a Republican or conservative (and now a Tea Party supporter) that can be used to “put down” that person(s), but never would they attempt to do that to another liberal. Obama can say that there are 57 states in the union, and he gets a pass. George Bush says, “Nice going Brownie” and he gets vilified. Joe “Foot in the Mouth” Biden regularly makes farcical statements and it gets played out like, “It’s only Joe being Joe”. No mocking of their fellow travelers are allowed in polite liberal company.

The left-leaning news media (CNN, MSNBC, NPR, N.Y. Times, Washington Post etc.) are complicit in this practice of “elitist arrogance” and condescension of others, mostly Republicans and conservatives who profess an opposing viewpoint from the slop the liberals spew out on a regular basis. How many times has the liberal attack dog, Keith Doberman (Olbermann) put a liberal on his vile list of Worse, Worser, and Worst Person of the Week? Talk about arrogance, he’s the personification of the word. He puts down Sarah Palin as a dunce, but he claims that he graduated from Cornell University an Ivy League university, but in fact he graduated from the Cornell Agricultural School which is not affiliated with Cornell per se. So elitists like Olbermann shouldn’t be throwing stones at others when he is lacking in the same things he accuses others of lacking. That seems to be the modus operandi of many of the liberals today. They are blinded to their actions by their ingrained, inbred liberal ideology.
