The stereotype of the Ugly American was at its height during the years of Eisenhower’s America in the 1950s. The image was that of a nose-in-the-air Yankee convinced that they knew best for the rest of the world and that all other people should stand in awe of “American Exceptionalism” (LMAO) and try to imitate all things American.
A few decades back the hilariously pretentious asses of American Liberalism replaced that image of the Ugly American with a new model. This liberal edition is a nose-in-the-air, self-described “intellectual” convinced that they know best for the world – especially their fellow citizens, whom they pompously look down on with disdain.
“Liberal Colonialism” is already notorious for preventing developing nations from using the technology that could help them grow out of economic dependency. That’s because the neo-Luddites of American Liberalism have decided that while THEY are perfectly entitled to fly around in jets and otherwise flaunt a Carbon Footprint bigger than Rhode Island, the “ignorant natives” as they apparently view the indigenous populations of those nations must go without adequate means.
American Liberals think they’re “saving the planet” the way religious missionaries long ago deluded themselves into thinking they were “saving the souls” of the native inhabitants. Liberalism in recent decades definitely has more in common with religion than with politics. Or with rational thought for that matter.
American Liberals also think they are fit to police the rest of us about “hate” and “fairness” as if they’re secular clergy. And for the Democratic Party that’s pretty much the way they want it. They are snobbishly oblivious to their own hatred and the unfair way they treat others and ESPECIALLY to their sickeningly judgmental attitudes. Just like the clergy members of any and all religions.
I consider all religions to be nothing but irrational mythology. That said there is only ONE religion in the world that elected officials and the increasingly shrill media constantly try to browbeat the rest of us into regarding with a reverence it does not deserve: Islam. (But only those elements of Islam that are violent and want to live in the past. Muslims working to reform their faith get ignored by the Left, who accuse them of “internalizing Western oppression.”) 
Balladeer’s Blog remains the only site on the web that equally criticizes American Liberals and Conservatives.
