The Hidden Cause Of The Psychopathology That Is Liberalism-Sexual Repression

That liberalism is a mental aberration is clearly understood and documented by the medical profession.

Liberalism is presented in Freudian terms as being an expression of  transference neurosis  i.e. infantile
feelings and conflicts which having been repressed  (often because of their, unsuitable to the conscious mind, sexual perversions)  which, seeking release, manifest themselves as neuroses.

It is long understood in the Freudian Psychoanalytic method that repressed sexual desire is a substantial contributor  to neurotic symptoms.That being the case it becomes clearly obvious why so many of the activists on the radical left are young males.

It is exactly at the peak testosterone driven hormonal time of a young mans life when he often has little outlet for this sexual drive-especially if he is shy and or unattractive to women.

This sexual frustration is of course not limited to males. 
On the distaff side it is obvious to all that many leading exponents of radical feminism are sadly lacking in attractiveness-there have been widely noted comments regarding the difference in appearance between liberal and conservative candidates and media personalities recently which is of course no surprise

It is now clear why the left wing blogs are replete with hate filled rants and gross sexual references to women-especially those on the right, like Sarah Palin or Ann Coulter, which if addressed by rightists against the First Lady would cause a volcano of indignation. These blogs, like Gawker, Huffington Post Big News Sarah Palin, and the vile Wonkette pander to and clearly attract a massive audience of sexual frustrates who find sad release in their onanism enabling media.

It was the time honored concept that "If you are not a socialist at twenty you have no heart, if you are still a socialist at forty you have no head". The thinking behind that wise saw was that age brings maturity of thought. We can now see, with the help of modern psychiatry, that the transition from radical left winger to thoughtful, mature conservative is not only because of having lived and learned but also because of a lowered, fulfilled libido.The mature man is more than likely to be married and have normal sexual outlet which enables him to have a balanced mind and body.

We are indebted further to the psychiatric profession as it enables right thinking people to achieve further balance in their lives, because instead of getting angry with the often violent actions and words of left wing activists, and their supporters in the blogs and main stream liberal media, they can be viewed as objects of pity.

It is the duty  of the right-especially the media to, when debating with or describing the activities of leftists to say to them-"I understand that what you are saying in such virulent and distorted terms is not the "real you' but sadly, an expression of your inner torment. Please try and understand the root cause and seek help. In the meantime here are some rational economic and political ideas to dwell on".

If such a dialogue can be instituted then there is hope for the well being of America. Those on the right carry the burden of civil, intelligent discourse, but they have to be even more broad shouldered now to carry their afflicted brothers and sisters on the left to the gentler streams of rationality.

Anti-Palin Blogs/Comments Are Now Utterly Boring-Beyond Pitying Or Caring About

I have to admit that up until recently I failed to take my own advice (even when it was supported by the inestimable  "The Other McCain" site) and just ignore anti-Palin commentators bloggers. I was commenting on a supposedly conservative site which was taking a negative stand against Palin and took the opportunity of advising that all such sites and especially the leftists ones are simply best ignored-especially for ones blood pressure.


 "Simply ignore these blogs. It is tempting to want to check in with them from time to time, especially when a major crisis arises, to see how they react. Morbid curiosity tempts too (like a visit to Bedlam) but these impulses should be resisted. Note, ignore not ban-they mustn't be given the chance to shout "undemocratic impulses on the right".



No more views too of Daily Kos, Democratic Underground, Wonkette, Gawker. Huffington Post Big Palin News. Let them froth and gibber in their echo chamber. We have better viewing and more importantly better work to do. It may be satisfying to fire off a rebuttal to a ridiculous statement but you are just feeding the beast. Sarah Palin represents the New Person, lets make an aspect of that an always positive, always constructive state of mind. One path to this state of mind is to free it from all negativity-and ignoring hostile bloggers is one of the steps."


However I am only human and in looking at the compilation sites e.g. "Memeorandum" "Addictomatic" (Sarah Palin) and "Sarah Storm" for articles on Palin and general news there are always a number of leftist sites with Anti-Palin headlines.


Some of these are so childish they are easily left alone but some are such blatant lies and distortion that my every instinct is to tear into them. I long ago realized that this is an utter waste of time as if one leaves  comments-no matter how true and well thought out/presented-one is instantly attacked in the most vicious manner.


However recently the leftist blogs/commentators have descended into such a rut of the same tired old cliche's
"She is dumb/a quitter/a hick"  that even I am able to ignore them completely. The memes have been so thrashed to so little effect that the public would not  give them a thought-clearly the left has shot every arrow in their quiver and all have missed the mark or at most caused a few flesh wounds which have well healed.


They are now, forlornly, trotting out "Racist, kiss of death  endorsement loser, media star not a poltician anymore" and "I hope Palin gets the nomination as Obama will destroy her in the debates" (which is a backhanded compliment in a way as it grudgingly admits she may get the nomination) but there is no sting to that tale/tail.

Certainly the sewer dwellers at Wonkette keep pushing their filth but no one except their drug addled smug readers takes any notice and the insane "Trig Truther" sites are folding-"Palin's Deceptions" and "Bree Palin", both the repository of unimaginable neuroses having bit the dust.

According to Conservatives4Palin  two of the most vicious of the
ad hominem sites Palingates and Mudflats (I wouldn't sully this page by linking to them not having the strong stomach that the folks at C4P have)  have recently had a massive drop in viewership-they have actually "imploded" according to C4P. This again is another confirming sign that even the most vicious anti-Palin elements are giving up.


All this is good news-those of us on the right can get on with presenting positivity and constructive policies without wasting our time reading and "debating", if such a thing were possible, with the idiot left. It also shows that they have shot their bolt and if any damage has been done to Palin's poll ratings then this is the worst level they can be at and the only way is up.

"Old Country" Jewish Humor Is Simply The Best

The "Old Country" Jewish humor is the best humor. Although the 19th century Eastern European Jews have died out they have left a legacy of wry, ironic, clever and above all self-deprecating humor which is a treasure trove.They also live on in the hundreds of top class Jewish humorists, writers, actors-on stage in the movies
and of course television.

The list is endless-Berle, Kovacs, Seinfeld, David, Jerry Lewis, Jack Benny and on and on seemingly endlessly including right up to date with the likes of Ben Stiller and Adam Sandler
 all of whom have a debt to a parent or grandparent with some European heritage.

Below is one of my favorite examples. It is not funny in the slapstick or instant punchline Henny Youngman way, (although it builds up to a carefully constructed laid back punchline which is perfect) but it covers a number of bases-the Jewish tradition and love of reasoning, and of course story telling-enjoy!

NB.It has a double plus for us moderns/baseball fans as it explains how both Ernie Kovacs and Sandy Koufax had unusual-not specifically Jewish names and "what they were before ". NNB. A Talmud scholar is a biblical scholar.
I apologize for the poor presentation but I have not mastered the copying from a printer technique. Click on the "first page" to see it whole.



The Apples Of Childhood Are Always the Sweetest "A la recherche du temps perdu"

I was watching the British version of "Who Do You think You Are" which show traces the family history of various well known personalities. It usually uncovers a good number of skeletons in various cupboards and is interesting viewing.


The guest was Rick Stein the well know chef and during the course of the program he went to one of the family homes in the English countryside and met the family housekeeper. It was a classic rambling English country house replete with spacious garden and as Klein was walking through it he said to the housekeeper "I remember that apple tree-they were particularly lovely apples"


All first apple tree are particularly lovely to young boys  (I can't speak for young ladies but somehow I don't believe there is the same magic-especially as young boys tend to climb up in the trees or pick up apples which may have been on the ground for some time etc) and I am no different from Rick Stein in my first apple experience.


I remember finding a long neglected orchard some distance off from the boarding school in Westchester New York I attended and making acquaintance with a thick, rough skinned brown apple the likes of which I had never seen before (which turned out to be a Russet I found out in later life).The first bite of this tempting oddity was-well all men who remember their first tree picked apple will know exactly what it tasted like-it was wonderful and exotic. I also made acquaintance with the Red Delicious type apple which are particularly sweet and glossy and the orchard became a hidden place of many trips and treasures.


Watching Klein and his apple memory shows that  in addition to Proust's "A la recherche du temps perdu"
episode of the madeleine the awakening of involuntary memory by a physical object the same came happen with the visual and vocally created imagery of a television program-I am sure both Stein and I could taste that first apple in our minds taste buds !

The Hidden Saints Of Palin's Israel Odyssey

Sarah Palin has expressed, not only through her words but her actions, the strongest support for Israel, the settlements and the right of return. In an interview she stated that the population of Israel would grow as more and more Jews seek to return to the land of their historic birthright stretching back thousands of years.


There have been many heroes facilitating this exodus including "Righteous Christians" who by their incredibly unselfish actions- often at great risk to themselves saved thousands of Jews from Nazi persecution and execution.

One of the saddest aspects of these great persons actions is that they were not honored until after their passing or very late in their lives. The world now knows of Oskar Schindler and Raoul Wallennberg, but who knows of the incredible stories, documented in the amazing book 'The Fugu Plan', of Mitsugi Shibata, honored one year before his passing, who saved thousands of Jews in Shanghai during WW2? Or Senpo Sugihara who issued 6000 exit visas to Curacao via Japan to Lithuanian Jews who otherwise would have ended up in death camps?

It is an honor and a privilege to be able to publicize the  ongoing deeply felt commitment, in this case to the return of an incredible 120,000 Jews, by latter day heroes who also have faced strong challenges in assisting Jews to return. I came across an announcement in a small local paper of a public meeting which set out to describe and honor this ongoing work. It is doubly delightful to see Christians actively involved in presenting the struggles of Jews and that unsung "Righteous Christians" are still continuing this, surely sacred, work;


AN American with a passion for Jews is speaking at venues between  about the return of the Jewish people to Israel. Roger Wolcott, is spiritual advisor to Ebenezer Emergency Fund International’s board,
Mr Wolcott is also discussing how the Fund assists in the process of the repatriation of the Jews to Israel.


The representative for Ebenezer Emergency Fund, Branson Hopkins, said the organisation “was established by Gustav Scheller and his wife after their experience of being under rocket-fire in Israel. They established a shipping line from the Ukraine city of Odessa to Haifa in Israel, for the purpose of carrying Jewish people from the former Soviet Union.


“In subsequent years, using sea and air routes, more than 120,000 people have been repatriated to Israel by the Mission. There have been many exciting events associated with the Mission, and volunteers from all around the world have become associated with the work, determined to love and help the Jewish people besides distributing humanitarian aid wherever they go. ‘Operation Exodus’, as the Mission is named, has continued to grow.


“Mr Wolcott will give an informed message of how the return of the Jewish people will continue and how Ebenezer Emergency Fund assists in that process,” said Mr Scheller.


Mr Wolcott met Mr Scheller in Israel in 1987, and in January 1991 at the International Prayer Conference in Jerusalem, when Gustav got the vision to bring the Jewish people back to Israel from the Soviet Union.


Palin's support for these returnees and her expression of the strongest possible support for Israel which is recognized as obvious in Jerusalem and slowly but surely sinking into the consciousness of American Jewry-the scales are dropping even from the most blinded of Jewish supporters of Obama-excepting the left-wingers of the JStreet.
