"PRINCETON, NJ -- Republicans are significantly more likely than Democrats or independents to rate their mental health as excellent, according to data from the last four November Gallup Health and Healthcare polls. Fifty-eight percent of Republicans report having excellent mental health, compared to 43% of independents and 38% of Democrats. This relationship between party identification and reports of excellent mental health persists even within categories of income, age, gender, church attendance, and education."

none of the all the things you listed are typical of Liberals...you have the disease of believing the conspiracy theory that "All Liberals are wackos". The fact is that the people that believe these things are not Liberals, but simply wackos.....
Most really crazy people don't know they are crazy
The concept of Liberalism is acceptance of other people and providing a net for the underprivileged and the unlucky....Liberals do want accountability for everything and believe in the rule of law and the Constitution....if you believe in the Constitution and the rule of law, I can forgive your nonacceptance of the other concept...that is just the difference of our politics....we can hammer out a very good middle ground that is reasonable and acceptable to most....but if you and other Conservatives will not compromise on difficult social issues, then you are the extremists....and it appears from all your questions and answers that you are unwilling to compromise....and if you are unable to compromise, then it isn't worth the breath to talk with you

Because liberals acknowledge the existence of mental and emotional health problems. Republicans don't. If they're emotionally ill, they just chalk it up to demonic possession.

I have figured out why this guy took hostages at Hillarys campaign headquarters. He had not been taking his medication and KNEW with no doubt that there would be plenty of various medications for mental health issues in the purses of the campaign workers there. They have been off of their meds too so he didnt think theyd notice if he took just a few. Then the feminazis attacked him being the compasionate liberals that they are. Hes a victim in this. Why cant liberals be more compassionate?!?!?!

ROFL...I would guess that self-delusion is involved in the Republicans' perception of their mental health.
After all, Republicans are able to rationalize invading a country that had nothing to do with our national tragedy of 9-11 and had no WMD's as the Bush Administrtion asserted.
Republicans delude themselves into believing that waterboarding is not torture, thus surrendering the moral high ground that the U.S. has always held.
Republicans are able to delude themselves into thinking that Libs are poor welfare folks who are not patriotic...This one is particularly rich. ROFLMAO
One could go on, but those examples of self-delusion should suffice.
Oh, I almost forgot...Republicans can delude themselves into squaring their "family values" with all of the current Republican sex scandals. Dems, keep your kids inside when there are Republicans on the street.

they are able to't truly say this with out merely taking place rumor, and media hype. the fact is precisely because it rather is asserted, we are the worst rated in healthcare. the clarification that all and sundry is crying out approximately healthcare reform is because of the fact they're lazy and count on the media to tell them the fact approximately what a healthcare reform will do for our united states of america. regrettably, the very source they seem to for fact, is the very source is paid off, to tell them the lies which will scare them from the fact of Healthcare reform. We, people who truly do our homework and don't hear to lies paid for by nay sayers, seem at those human beings as though they grew 2 heads, or are truly egocentric and uncaring approximately all and sundry yet themselves. We scratch our heads in confusion, and ask your self how could desire to all and sundry be so out of touch with the fact of todays worker? i've got been speaking to a guy who merely has no concept of what is going on today, he believes that welfare recipients are going to be the individuals who earnings from the healthcare reform being proposed. I ran out of room to tell him that welfare human beings, they don't opt for healthcare reform, they have greater advantageous healthcare than the two he or i will ever have. the ideal medical doctors volunteering to make certain welfare recipients, the ideal medical doctors engaged on them, freed from charge. No charge what-so-ever for any form of scientific, dental, or hospitalization needs, and the ideal of the ideal medical doctors in the area, finding after them. the individuals who have no insurance and could truly earnings from a healthcare reform, are the individuals working jobs, paying thier fees, taking care of their little ones, and terrific human beings, yet have no option at any of their many or one interest, to get carry of healthcare insurance. They make 20.00 too plenty to qualify as destitute, and so the alternative for loose healthcare is out of their attain, yet they don't make adequate to purchase insurance on the loose industry the two, except they start up up advertising insurance for the 20.00 in keeping with month that positioned the best relatives over the final, to qualify for loose healthcare. it rather is a good line that seperates good human beings from healthcare insurance, does not mean all and sundry is lazy, or not attempting to get get carry of healthcare. all of us opt for to guard ourselves and our households, it was a given, now that's totally almost impossible.

Republicans are so much better at denial. Take for instance sexual orientation, they think they're hetereosexual but they're not. So, the same could apply here, they think they're mentally fine, but they're not.
