#2  Liberals should be subdivided into several pitiful groups, none entirely exclusive. In no particular order:

1) Socialists. People with a true herd mentality, with a true aversion to individuality. They would gladly run off a high cliff with the herd rather than stand alone and survive. They worship conformity and mediocrity, and abhor competition, failure and success. They see individuality as a threat, individuals as predators.

2) The phobic. Terrified of the concept of violence, they live in fear of drama, such as loud noises, aggression, emotional intensity, and acute pain. They seek to neutralize any extreme because they are incapable of adapting to it. When confronted by a violent or dramatic situation they cannot flee, they collapse.

3) The fanatical idealist. Far fewer than there used to be, because the 20th century was a laboratory for secular fanaticism, and blunted much of its clarity of purpose. It was tried and failed miserably so many times that it took away much of their steam.

4) The amoral. They adopt the paradoxical viewpoint that "amorality is morality", and see the "moral as corrupt". That is why they distrust and despise those who are moral and upright, and try to drag them down. They do not trust anyone who is not tainted. The Clintons are a stupendous example of this lot, and intentionally surrounded themselves with individuals of low character, known as offenders. They see moral people as just hiding their perversions and deviances, and are thus *worse* that the amoral, whose corruptions are known.

5) The haters, bigots and paranoids. These are one issue liberals, and only show themselves in a cyclic manner. Most of the time they pretend to normality, but in private and every now and then in public, they let slip what they truly believe.

#1  "the deluded and pathetic sophistry of postmodernists of the left, who believe their unreadable, jargon-clotted theory somehow helps liberate the wretched of the earth," as Mr. Rosenbaum wrote in the New York Observer in 2002.

For whatever else distinguishes Islamism from liberalism, both are remarkably self-absorbed affairs, obsessed with maintaining the purity of their own values no matter what the cost.

well said, except I would have said that liberalism is obsessed with maintaining the superiority of their own values.
