Lefties can become so agitated and discombobulated with blind, self-rightous rage.
Where does that come from?

I think it may have something to do with status seeking. Whoever shrieks and waves their arms most stridently, and visibly, asserts themselves in the social hierarchy most effectively.

One must let it be known that this and that is completely morally beneath one's self. Simple disagreement doesn't suffice.

I seem to recall one red-haired woman shrieking " Another boat, another policy failure" .  Oh how correct she has proved to be .

A lot of the frothing reaches Tourette syndrome proportions. It's embarssing to think that such people are allowed out unsurepvised.

Right wingers are generally grumpy but at least they have some wit and a perspective.

Exactly, and he's only saying what we are all thinking.

Whilst I don't agree with Bolt on all matters, honestly who could argue this is not the general consensus, the view held by a majority of Australians right now?

Rudd was a dudd, absolutely, but at least he thought about what he said, if only a little before blurting his views to the media.

Gillard is embarrassing, the world thinks she's a joke, as do most Australians from both sides of politics.

She hasn't a diplomatic bone in her body and sprouts off half-cocked before thinking things through, and I believe it's this very impulsiveness that will ultimately wreck her short lived claim to fame, ..her being our first female PM.

Thanks to her, she'll probably be our last too...*cringe* Tongue

It just so much Emotional Correctness and insufferable moral vanity. It is self-preening. 'Look at moi, I am more of a bien pensant than you!'

I would say that right-wingers tend to be more good humored and satisfied with their lives than leftists. Marxists for instance are somes of the most miserable mofos you would ever hope (or not hope) to meet; they hate themselves and those they allege to represent.

I tell you what's a whacky thought... that someone might be neither left, or right, but would instead choose to make a judgment on each issue as that issue arises.

And that for those who do happen to fit snugly within those pre-defined political labels, their personalities and characteristics might actually vary greatly.

Well yeah; there are obviously a lot of people who simply "pick sides" (or rather, parties) and generally every perspective that comes with the package. I'm a right-winger because my individual perspective has merely agreed individually with things considered socially to be on the "right" side of politics far more often than those considered to be on the "left". Thus, you can of course categorise me as such. My views aren't exactly well represented in mainstream politics anymore, though.

Doesn't seem to many rational views are anymore. Regardless of which side of the political spectrum they may be deemed to suit.

Guess it depends from issue to issue. Mainstream politicians might be correct on some things like economic matters but I'm not knowledgable enough in those domains to make any comment. There are things that I can say with certainty that they are absolutely dead wrong (or are knowingly wrong and are motivated for other reasons) on, though.

Unfortunately, that is simply beyond most, as is evident from this, and other, internet sites.

If "outrage" is the measure of being incorrect, then Bolt would never be correct. His whole site is a plethora of "outrage" against whatever group happens to have his goat at a particular time - Gillard/Rudd/Labor/leftists/Greens/Mulism/immigrants/refugees/blacks.

now who is the pot calling the kettle black????

he is a journo telling it how he sees it..what are your claims to fame. when you claim he is against all those groups..

as for being incorrect, he, as is the truth with most journos has far better insight into what goes on behind closed doors than the likes of you or I would have. just because you dont like what you read.. doesnt mean it isnt correct.
