A new course for Liberals 'Studies in Demoralisation’


It was sad to witness Hillary in India and then break her wrist and it would be not very cavalier if one did not wish her well, however judging by her animus-driven latest outburst a new Humanities course at those oh so Liberal ideological factories called academic institutions might be to offer a Course in a suitably titled, 'Studies in Demoralisation’. 


All that would be required of the students is a breathtaking literal-mindedness and an enthusiasm for limitless renunciation. It is a deformity in some, 'not all Liberals' (note how I covered myself) to imagine that, once they have found the lowest or meanest motive for an action or for a person, say Trump as a vile reprobate, they can amble through to the certainty that they have correctly identified the authentic person or  real situation. 

One could term this approach '...the lower we go the higher we understand,' thank you Michelle.  Think of it,  in 'Studies in Demoralisation’ all the students would have to do is draw conclusions by skimming from the top of arguments, not unlike the analysis of a poem on the basis of a one-sentence summary . The motto for the class would not be raison d'être (reason for being) raison d’état  (a purely political reason) While this is going on Hillary can return to her unstable Imperium made the more dynamically erratic by the flaw at its heart  - her pooch who refuses to stop straying from his porch
