They Don't Think It's Condescending-

because they think it's true.

I'm trying to get a post on human motivation pulled together-- it grew out of a conversation Elf and I had, on if folks realize they're being counter-productive, selfish donkeys that are willing to sacrifice anything, so long as it's not theirs. (Being the token optimist, I think folks think themselves justified....)

Until I get that post to where I think it's publishable, I'll simply say: of course they're offended by the old Reagan joke, but not about talk of "Jesusland," and are able to classify the entire Yang to their Yin as lacking in any reasoning ability, of being "completely predictable" in their "characteristically insane bravado."

...

So, saying "hippies stink" is horrible.  Calling everyone to the right of Hollywood insane is just cool.

Oh, and Republicans are masters of the emotional side of campaigns!  *snicker*
