This is the mental universe inhabited by today's left. These people actually think and are constantly telling each other (and no one ever corrects them) that the leaders of the Republican party want to take away the most basic civil liberties of everyone who is not white, wealthy, Christian, and male. It is through the lens of such assumption that the left perceives every act, statement, and policy initiative of President Bush. The fact that Bush is a super Wilsonian endeavoring to bring democracy to countries that have never had it, the fact that he is an aggressive promoter of open borders whose dream it is to turn America as quickly as possible into a Mestizo country--the left can take in none of this, because it doesn't fit their fevered image of Bush as a racist Christian fascist.
How can they stand it? How can they stand living in such gross lies ? How can they stand believing and echoing, year after year, these ludicrous falsehoods that bear no relationship to the real world?
As we look on today's left, are we witnessing the beginning of speciation?
