To know your enemy is not as easy as people think. To try to understand how he thinks you need to get rid of your prejudices. What got Obama in trouble with the Catholic Church is that he and his people really do believe the propaganda lie that 96% of Catholic women use contraception, and above all the propaganda implication that therefore Catholic beliefs should not be taken seriously. In the same way, the Bourbon troops at Calatafimi had been told that they would meet a gang of ragged brigands. When they met Garibaldi's men, they were astonished to find a uniformed and well-trained army that met them bayonet in hand instead of running for the hills. In the end, it is your own propaganda that kills you. And my conservative friends need to understand that as well as anyone else. Time and time again I have seen townhall.com and American Thinker articles about why liberals think as they do, that bear not the slightest resemblance to what actual liberals actually think. And then you are surprised when they win elections.
