    Why am I not surprised at Six bringing Right-wing Authoritarian Disorder into the discussion?

    Let's see....take a disorder defined by a communist nut-case from the Frankfurt school, based on the personalities of fanatical left-wing fanatics (Hitler, Mussolini, and Ernst Röhm among others, and apply it to those of the opposite political side of the spectrum and draw false conclusions from such a flawed methodology. Great piece of work!

    I often find it amusing that despite all of their attempts to refine their definition of the Right-wing Authoritarianism they still can't come up with a model which cannot as easily be applied to folks from the left. Even Hillary Clinton fits the symptomatology quite well. And left-wing idealogues in academia still can't figure out why! I guess they can't let the facts get in the way of rants either.

    Dawg, I have not been ignoring you. I started having technical problems accessing JWD last night, and it wasnt until about 8:30 this evening that I was finally able to access JWD again.

    To answer your question, No I havent read those Federalist papers yet, I simply dont have the time or the interest. I have much more pressing "real world" problems that Im dealing with right now.

    I hope you're not voting JG. To me it's a "real world" problem. I take it very seriously, and try to educate myself. Knowledge can change my views.

    I am educating myself about the candidates, and if I find one that I can support I will vote, but I dont have time to worry about some 18th century documents. I do have real world problems such as marriage,finances, relationships, etc etc etc to be even bothered by it.

    Maybe they[Republicans] are just a happier people?
    Republicans spend more time in prayer to God and dont fall for alot of the psychological mumbo jumbo.

    When the prayer isn't cutting it anymore, falling for the "psychological mumbo jumbo" can help you with some of those "real world problems" that are troubling you.

    Exactly right, and that is why Im open to the possibility of reparative therapy.

    Dang it, J-G!

    That's what I like about you.

    You're way more "open" than you're willing to admit to yourself.

    You're a good guy.

    Take care, man.

    Forscher,

    Strange that you should feel so strongly about this, as you have been guilty on numerous occasions of labelling "liberals" anyone who disagrees with your views. Furthermore you seem to have developed a "model" in your own head that typifies what you consider "liberals" to be like and you waste no opportunity is presenting this "model" in all its delusional dimensions repeatedly.

    So it seems that you are quite happy with a "model" that identifies "liberal" thinkers, but sneer when such a model is structured for "republican" thinkers, claiming it is to universal to be of any use. Perhaps we should add "blatant hypocrisy" to the model for authoritarian Republican thinkers such as yourself.

    Lets face it Forscher, you are the JCanon of politics on this Board, but with half the charm.
