In the comments section a Disqus commenter posting under the name CR posted one of the most brilliant dissections of liberal "thought" I've read in a while and I flat out told them I'd be stealing it.
Here it is:
- "I don't want the government in my womb."
- Ten minutes later: "The government had d*mn well better pay for my birth control."
- Fifteen minutes later: "Keep government funding for Planned Parenthood."
- Twenty minutes later: "The government better stay out of my sex life."
- Twenty five minutes later: "The government better guarantee my right to get gay married!"
- Half hour later: "Mothers deserve the right to murder all unwanted children no matter how long it takes them to decide the child is unwanted!"
- 35 minutes later: "If a complete ban on gun saves even one child, we MUST do it!"
- 40 minutes later: "The government should stay out of it and let a woman choose."
- 45 minutes later: "Sorry for the confusion, I of course did not mean choose whether she wants to carry a gun, where her children should go to school, whether to invest in government-mandated "retirement insurance" (aka social security) or whether to buy health insurance. I just meant choose whether to murder her child or not."
- An hour later: "People who homeschool their children are messing up their kids. Now come on my six-year-old-daughter, grab your sign saying you want to F*ck a senator and let's go join the angry mob threatening lawmakers at the capital."
- "Why Yes, I am a stupid and morally bankrupt liberal who sees no disconnect in any of my illogical positions. Why do you ask?"
Not only is liberal "thought" disconnected from reality, its disconnected from itself.
