Nicely written Doc, as usual… I agree with the poster above; you should have your own blog or become part of the team here at HA so that all of your work will be front page.

This is a tremendous essay, and I particularly enjoyed this bit:

Hero worship is more than just a strategic consideration for liberals, however. It is part of their psychology, an inevitable consequence of the reasoning that leads to their belief in the all-powerful State. Liberals believe their political views place them on a higher moral and intellectual plane than average people – only the wise stewardship of a powerful government, led by enlightened liberals, can produce a prosperous and just society. Since liberals see themselves as an elite, they need to view their leaders as super-elites. If the State is the supreme repository of moral virtue and economic wisdom, then the masters of the State must be supremely virtuous and wise. For the same reason, the leaders among liberalism’s enemies must be unspeakably stupid and vile. A brotherhood of intellectual giants can only accept a colossus as their king, and their enemies could only be monsters.

I could quibble with it a little: there are some on the right who share this habit of mind, though they tend to view enemies as unspeakably stupid more than unspeakably vile.

Nevertheless: bravo.

Long ago, the leadership of the Democratic party insidiously threw away the role of the Father. It’s no wonder their weak-minded followers have replaced their lost Fathers with flawed actors, entertainers, duplicitous politicians, and generally wealthy deviants.

In most households our heroes were our Fathers. But now, not just through divorce, single parenthood, or the emasculation of men, but in small things like the simple act of where a family eats dinner- the TV is the head of the household. For the Left, Fathers & Fatherhood, are unnecessary. For children, that loss is a perpetual vacuum. The Left does recognise Fathers or Mothers as heroes – parents are an impediment to State control.

I was scratching my head the other day Doctor Zero thinking “Wonder why Obama hasn’t made an Entertainment Czar?, those guys have lots of money”. You answered my question – but I don’t think it’s royalty for most of the liberals – I think these figures replace the real heroes they never had – their Fathers.

Oh, I don't know... My wife and I owe our mantra for cleaning the cat litter box to Michael Jackson. Those of you that followed him closely will surely recall his plaintiff wail "It smells like poop in here and there's doo doo on the walls" when he was locked up in jail.

MJ never gave up what or about what? Remark makes no sense at all. Sounds like Sharpton had run out of slogans and adapted an old one from the Civil Rights movement.

Brilliant, as always, Doctor Z.
