Power Line's Scott Johnson posts a paragraph from The Spectator (behind paywall) written by Chillton Williamson, Jr., in which he characterizes today's Democratic Party. Williamson takes no prisoners.
Today, the Donkey party is the party of the aggrieved, the resentful, the angry, the neurotic, the desperate, the illogical, the delusional, the irrational, the unchurched, the metaphysically uncentered, the unattached and childless, the anti-social, the resentful, the failures and the congenitally rebellious – all those not nailed down or secured to anything, beginning with themselves. They are the product, or rather the detritus, of an anti-traditional, aggressively secular, excessively technological, overly connected, trivialized and wholly commercialized and urbanized society divorced from nature and the direct experience of it that had been basic to human existence until a couple of hundred years ago.
A thoroughly repellant bunch of life's losers ....
