Daniel J. Flynn, discussing his book Intellectual Morons : How Ideology Makes Smart People Fall for Stupid Ideas:
The Left’s reflexive hatred for America and its allies overrides its genuflections to human rights. That’s why they don’t cheer human rights advances in Afghanistan, or Israel’s tolerance of Arab homosexuals who would be severely punished for their behavior in their homelands.
The Left used to get their marching orders from the Soviet Union. They’re gone now. But their enemy remains, and some leftists simply define their positions by what opposes the United States. If there has been a cohesive idea uniting the Left since the fall of the Iron Curtain, it is anti-Americanism.
