Excerpt:
On the Madness of Modern Liberalism:
The egalitarianism and welfarism of modern liberal government are incompatible with the facts of human nature and the human condition. But the rise to power of the liberal agenda has resulted from the fact that the people of western societies have irrationally demanded that governments take care of them and manage their lives instead of protecting their property rights. This misconception results in massive violations of those rights while permitting government officials to act out their own and their constituents’ psychopathology...

An absolutely facinating read. It backs up what conservatives have been saying with deep insight into the human psyche.

This is probably the most important posting on this site. Everyone interested in having a free country to live in should read this article.

I read the excerpt (not the whole book), and it accurately describes the symptoms of the madness called liberalism/communism.  

I'm not sure that I would say it had deep insight into the human psyche.  It's more like trying to gain insight into the psyche of a schizophrenic.

The leftist mind is a diseased mind, it isn't representative of the human psyche.  It is a walking, talking example of how the human psyche can become irreparably damaged.  Every useful, and adaptively beneficial trait of the functioning human psyche is absent in the psyche of the leftist.  

Read Igmond's posts to see it in "real time".

This is written by a boarded psychiatrist who has many years experience studying the human mind. Liberals look just like conservatives on the outside, but are wired differently in their brain. It would behoove all of us to study the liberal mentality because if Obama wins, we will be living in a liberal world. The reason this post is so important is because it clearly describes where the liberals are coming from and where our country will be going.

Have you read the whole book? I may have to get it.

I think that it may be especially important for rational people to use this analysis as framework for discussing leftism/liberalism. What I mean is that there are probably certain passages, or newly-coined terms which should become common parlance among conservatives when arguing with leftists. It is more important than ever to not let the terms of any debate be defined by liberals. We need to frame any discussion in our terms. The communists have been far too successful in controlling language in this country in recent decades, it's time to put a stop to that.

Dr. Rossiter will clearly be condemned/disparaged as a kook. Psychiatry is one of the most left-leaning fields of study in this country. It was one of the dsciplines specifically and intentionally targeted for control by communists. What would be really great is if Dr. Rossiter could effect a sea-change in the entire Psychology/psychiatry industry.

I have not read the whole book, but I have read and downloaded all the excerpts. Rossiter is dead on with his description of the liberal mind and agenda.
