Did You Know You're Crazy and Homeless?

Bert Prelutsky of townhall.com knows how liberals win elections: it's the massive crazy homeless person turnout in recent elections. No, really.

Here in California, roughly 30 years ago, because of budget cuts, a great many people were released from insane asylums.

. . .

Inevitably, they also got to vote. As a result, the likes of Barbara Boxer, Dianne Feinstein, Gray Davis, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Antonio Villaraigosa, Gavin Newsom and Jerry Brown, wound up winning all the major elections. I mean, the truth is, you’d have to be crazy to vote for those people.

I have to suspect that a similar scenario took place all over the country. How else to explain that two-thirds of Americans actually believe that Barack Obama’s policies will save our economy?

Over 60,000,000 people voted for Obama. Mr. Prelutsky would have us believe that every one of those people was a crazy homeless guy released from a mental institution in the 60s. Yeah.

Later on, we get this interesting redefinition of waterboarding*:

Something else that makes me wonder if, in a nicer, kinder world, liberals wouldn’t be housed in a warm place where they’d be kept safely away from sharp objects and voting booths, is their notion of what constitutes torture. In my world, cutting off Daniel Pearl’s head, throwing Anne Frank in an oven or having to listen to Chris Matthews, is torture. But by no means is it playing loud music, keeping people awake, making them share space with a caterpillar or even dousing them with water, in order to get them to cough up information that might prevent another 9/11 or keep American soldiers from being ambushed.

Only a liberal could confuse actual torture with college hazing.

One wonders where exactly Mr. Prelutsky went to college.

Another difference that seems to escape liberals is that it’s torture when the only purpose is to cause pain, not when it’s done in order to pry important information from terrorists.

No, sorry Mr. Prelutsky, why you torture someone does not change the fact that it is torture.

What follows is a bunch of random assertions about liberals that not only doesn't reflect reality, but doesn't make any sense at all: we hate the boy scouts, christians, gays and the military. No, sorry, just because you say it, Mr. Prelutsky, does not make it true.
