If there is one thing that is true about leftists it is their endless pursuit of negative emotions. Leftists are angry, sad, or disgusted all the time and are constantly trying to make everyone else that way as well. I absolutely refuse to be angry, sad or disgusted. I prefer to be happy as much as possible. If I wake up on the wrong side of the bed I force myself to think positively and reject the ease of being negative. Yes, there are times when I cannot help but be angry, sad, or disgusted, but I keep them to a minimum in frequency and length of time. There is also anxiety that is a constant for leftists. Remember that they are victims in their minds. Anxiety is a reaction to thinking that someone is always out to get you and/or take what you have. Anxiety is the most annoying feeling in the world even when it is just a case of stagefright or the jitters when starting something new. Imagine feeling that way all the time. It is no surprise to me that leftists are the most miserable people on the planet.

     There are two types of leftists out there. The first is your normal everyday leftist, your average democrat. They are the hippies, tree huggers and granola heads, or they used to be in the 60's or 70's. They feel that it is their personal mission to save the whales or feed the bums etc. Most of these people are serious pot smokers or use other recreational drugs. Smoking pot and taking drugs are vehicles to escape reality but more importantly to escape anxiety. I believe that a few quality rounds of therapy would solve most of this categories' problems. The next is more sinister.

     The second is the hard core Alinsky leftist that wants a "revolution" but is willing to settle for "evolution" to achieve totalitarian communism as long as it gets done. They are drones for this cause and would sacrifice everything to achieve it. These are the people that will not stop ever and are the most sinister. They escape from the constant anxiety by doubling their efforts to achieve their goals. In other words they lie alot more, cheat alot more, and steal alot more than the average leftist to make themselves feel better. The anxiety affects them just as negatively but they are alot more dangerous to our country.

     If you have ever been around leftists in their world it is a sight to see. Everyone of them that has achieved success has had to swim in the gutter and love it in order to advance. They are ruthless to each other because they are all competing for the therapeutic attention and fame. It's sort of like throwing a steak on the floor and watching starving dogs fight for it. They are dysfunctional and damaged as a rule. I can count on one hand the Hollywood marriages that two famous people have stayed married for more than a couple of years. Strung out rock stars, abusive actors, suicidal porn stars, you name it, most of them are or have been drug addicts or have been arrested for impaired driving, spousal battery, or some other crazy felony or misdemeanor. They are not normal people like you and I that get up everyday and live our lives without a thought. They merely play normal people on screen or sing about normal people. The non-famous ones are most usually teachers or some kind of artist and barely scraping by, but still love company in their misery.

     The leftist thought process is 180 degrees opposite of the logical thought process. Leftists reject reason when making decisions and reject any accountability when they fail. It is obvious to me and to most Americans what they are up to and it makes me crazy when some of us know better but give them a pass anyway. This brings me to the pessimism that I want conquered. It is the pessimism that rears its ugly head once in a while in conservative circles. Pessimism can be a nasty, self-fulfilling prophecy.
 
     The hard core leftists want nothing more than to cause us as much anxiety as possible. They believe if they can dampen our enthusiasm they can concoct ways to pull off wins and retain control of government. We cannot let them affect us. Every time the Founding Principles and the Constitution are matched against their socialism and communism in whatever form they want to disguise it in we win. America wins. It is only when Conservatives in government office and civilian life become apathetic do we lose elections and let happen what is happening now. Conservatism has always succeeded. Communism and socialism have never succeeded.

     I listen to the radio most days and once in a while I will hear pessimism. It makes me want to be able reach in and straighten the caller and the host out. Pessimism has no place in America, we are eternal optimists. Imagine if the Founders had been pessimistic, we wouldn't be here having a conversation about pessimism. Here in Nevada there are three candidates in the Republican primary to challenge Harry Reid in the November election. Otherwise known as "Judgment Day". Supposedly according to some silly poll only one candidate named Sue Lowden can beat Reid. As it is Sue Lowden is not going to win the primary. The winner is going to be a local Nevada legislator and solid as a rock Conservative named Sharron Angle. According to the same poll Reid beats Angle by 3 points. It's "BS", not true, hogwash, whatever you want to call it. There is no way legally that Harry Reid is going to win in November. Sharron Angle would have to shoot up democrat headquarters with an M-16 in order to mess this up. Reid barely won before, and now after shoving health care and the rest down our throats the state of Nevada is ready to stick it up his you know what. 

    My message is, don't worry so much. Stay focused on the good. Don't let yourself feel every political ripple in the pond because none of them mean anything until after "Judgment Day". Just do what we have in Nevada. Educate yourself and those close to you, pick the best most Conservative candidates, campaign for them, get out the vote, and the rest will take care of itself. Let the leftists suffer the anxiety.
