The lunacy of the left:

The lunacy of the left: "But most people on the left choose denial, if not outright delusion.  Why?  Because, unlike conservatives, progressives don't just carry [political] beliefs; they are their [political] beliefs.  Their ideology is their identity.  And stripped of this, what would they have left?  Nothing, emptiness, being lost in an unfathomable universe.  This is precisely why people create alternative realities...because the real one is too unbearable." http://bit.ly/lX5WZw
People are not always as they appear to be.  Sometimes the doctor is a predator, the nice neighbor a thief, and the beguiling political leader a wolf in sheep's clothing.  And if we are not willing to take off the rose-colored glasses, we will put ourselves and everyone around us in danger. ibid.
