23. In the words of Homer Simpson
"Sometimes the only way to feel good about yourself is to see someone worse off than you. I'm tired of making other people feel good about yourself."

I think we (the left) have those feelings direct at us at various levels over the years (example "it's the LIBERAL's fault that families are breaking up") one of the first things we do is turn it back on them when we have the chance (example "ha ha Rush!").

Americans (left and right alike) have been conditioned to respond to base desires for years and this is the result. It feels good to insult the others so we do it.
