<Liberalism has its basis in emotion - not reality.
You heard it here first!
Hate to clue you, dear, but emotion is more real than logic. Logic is a trained way of thinking, a construct, a frame of reference. Love, hate and fear are inborn, found in everyone, from the very young to the very old. They form the basis of the human psyche. Ask Psyche herself what her world was like when Eros left.
And then there are the secondary, or derivative emotions, those which are founded in the basic three -- emotions like courage, stinginess, generosity, cowardice...
Naturally, emotion is very unscientific and leads to gross misjudgments.
Yeah, like running into burning skyscrapers to rescue people.
Didja ever wonder why, if liberalism is so darned screwy, why people still find it attractive?
Shaking my head @ you--
