I think this paragraph really synthesizes it for me:<BR/><BR/>"The left feels kinship with moribund totalitarians because they share that same doomed feeling of futility and humiliation. The Modern Left knows that with the fall of the Soviet Union, the Capitalization of China, stirrings of successful modernization in India, Mexico and much of the old Soviet block and the defection of the best minds (Hitchens, Podhertz, Kristol, et al) they are no longer the "Modern Left", they are merely "What's Left". It has never been more apparent that their ideas are mawkish, cheap and unworkable.<BR/>"<BR/><BR/>Your previous post, "thought vs non-thought..." was also well-put. Your quote from Whoopi was a complete synthesis of what I have experienced trying to discuss issues with lefty family members:<BR/><BR/><I>"No. 2, when I take a stance on something, all I can talk to you about it how I feel about it and why. And I don't have to justify it, and you don't have to listen to it. But it is important for everyone to know that they have an opinion and they have a - have a right to express it.""</I><BR/><BR/>Yup, they don't have to justify it.<BR/><BR/>Between the two articles, I am finally coming closer to be able to articulate why I just can't stomach the democratic party/leftist thought.<BR/>It's not that I have contempt for them (I was pretty lefty until 9/11), it's that communication is about impossible with them.<BR/><BR/>In future articles could you maybe address the moral foundation for this lefty philosophy? It sounds so much like a religion - but lacking any fundamental experience with actual life. It's a moral-sounding code (no torture or humiliation, no killing, human dignity, help the poor) with no basis in real-life experience and no acknowlegement of the failure of similar philosophies.<BR/><BR/>Good stuff.<BR/><BR/>I'm definitely a fan.<BR/><BR/>best<BR/><BR/>DaveAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625076107995960519.post-65263379999736690362007-05-05T08:56:00.000-05:002007-05-05T08:56:00.000-05:00Excellent post, Yaacov, thank you.The "real face o...Excellent post, Yaacov, thank you.<BR/><BR/>The "real face of horror" indeed.<BR/><BR/>I linked to you on my page but could not link through Blogger.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625076107995960519.post-33259150701786255712007-05-04T18:51:00.000-05:002007-05-04T18:51:00.000-05:00Yaacov.

They are absolute power-mongers who will do anything to achieve their goals (whatever those are). To wit, Hillary has never shown any compunction about the Rose Law firm records fiasco, her investment boondoggle, nor anything else that she has ever been caught at. No shame at Bill's behavior, either.<BR/><BR/>Nancy is a west-coaster, and I'm a Florida guy, so I don't know any specifics of her nastiness, but I'm not uneasy when I assume that she has skeletons in her closet.skh.pcolahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06236658423183953962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1625076107995960519.post-30720815237543151082007-05-04T09:39:00.000-05:002007-05-04T09:39:00.000-05:00Yaacov - I am linking to your post because EVERYON...Yaacov - I am linking to your post because EVERYONE should read it!
