Bush Derangement Syndrome is psychological transference

14 Comments »

1. For a president who’s stupid and incompetent, and whose policies are so strongly opposed by the American people… he certainly seems to get his way with Congress more often than not. War funding… he got it. FISA … he got it. Farm Bill veto… not over-ridden. S-CHIP expansion to affluent middle class families… didn’t happen.

   A “lame duck” president, mind you.

   Although, there is the erosion of presidential powers, particularly in the FISA thingy. I had read where the Bush Administration was intent on taking back powers that Ford gave up, but it seems to me that they’re giving up more.

3. #1, that’s why people who hate him are so frazzled. Hell, even in his Audacity book, Obama writes of him as an ordinary guy.

   Today a woman made on off-hand remark that Republicans are idiots, then said that her husband is one. I told her I was one. She said, “You’re an idiot.” I feel sorry for her husband.

4. I think liberalism is partly based on transference because they do an aweful lot of it. Some of the crap they claim is exactly what they’ve done.

   Consider the whole “Culture of Corruption” kerfuffle. Just who the hell do they think they are?

5. I just watched the most unique anti-Obama video ever

   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_R6gcbC9Hz4

   This one seems to be making analogies between the movement that formed the Weather Underground, and the crowd that is forming around Obama today.

   And if i’m not mistaken, the message, from former underground members, is … dont repeat our misakes.

6. I agree TGC, I think liberalism itself is rooted largely in transferrence. They think everyone else cheats because they cheat, they think everyone else sees only race when speaking of minorities because skin color is all they see. They think republicans “dont care” because they care only enough to vote for someone else to do something about it with other people’s money. and on and on.

7. American Elephant: I was on Alan Colmes blog mindlessly arguing with some idiot Leftist.. he was arguig with me about Islam.. about which he knew absolutely nothing but you know how that type is..they know everything .. even on things they know nothing about.

   So I pointed out that since he knows nothing , he has no justification in saying that I was wrong.

   So I say

   I been studying it since 1998. Are you going to tell me I haven’t? I run into this attitude from your ilk a lot. It’s almost as if you disparage people for reading about a topic.. or doing anything more than passively listening to the (inadequate) news.

   Have you read any books on Islam?

   Guess what the idiot responds with:

   It’s meaningless. EVERYONE thinks they have more facts and knowledge than those who disagree with them

8. oops i hit the button too soon

   He responds with

   It’s meaningless. EVERYONE thinks they have more facts and knowledge than those who disagree with them

   To which I said:

   Speak for yourself. I know what my limitations are and I know where my strengths are.

   Thank you for proving what I said up above.. you think everyone else thinks like you do. Which explains why Leftists always form the worst possible opinion of people they argue with. Because you think they’re just as miserable, dishonest, and deceptive as you are.

   But like I said.. speak for yourself.

   Which is exactly what you said.

   Then he responds with this one:

   I have ABSOLUTELY NO idea what you are talking about?

   This is getting REALLY silly now.

   They’re so god damn retarded and childish.

   I’m not sure if it’s because they actually think that way, or they hope like hell that if they point enough fingers, it will distract the “bitter”, ignorant masses.

10. I don’t think they’re conscious of it — well, except for Democrat politicians, who I am certain do it deliberately

11. If we are talking corruption and hypocrisy there’s enough in both parties to go around. I think we all know that. Imagine what would happen if both parties stopped apologizing for the crooks and liars on their own side of the aisle.

12. Houndentenor, delighted you recognize corruption on both sides of the aisle. Now, will you please address the subject of the post — or has the thread already gone beyond that?

13. Imagine what would happen if both parties stopped apologizing for the crooks and liars on their own side of the aisle.

    Tom DeLay is out of office, but William Jefferson still has his seat. Mark Foley was kicked out for sending text messages to interns, but Gerry Studds was re-elected by Democrats for years. Chris Dodd’s sweetheart mortgage deal doesn’t seem to be raising much in the way of criticism from fellow Democrats.

    Don’t tell me there isn’t a double-standard.

14. #13: Democrats can’t be hypocrites, because they have no moral standards to violate.

    To accuse someone of hypocrisy is a bit on the ad hominem side. One attacks the person who failed to practice what he preached, but not the sermon.

    Nonetheless, I’m still looking for anything Larry Craig said about bathroom sex prior to his arrest for same.
