Dinesh D'Souza spent an hour on Glenn Beck's radio program today promoting his new book and film "America: Imagine the World Without Her" while psychoanalyzing the Left by explaining that President Obama and the entire movement are motivated by nothing more than envy and a desire to destroy everyone who is better off.
"The primary emotion that drives the Left is the emotion of envy," D'Souza said, asserting that politicians like Obama succeed by convincing people that instead of bettering their own situations through education or hard work, the government will simply pull down those who have already succeeded and then redistribute some of that wealth to them.
"So here's the envious guy, seething with envy, seething with resentment and who should come to him at this point but Obama," he explained. "And Obama, himself suffused with envy, will say to this guy 'Listen, let me tell you something, you're not envious, you are righteously indignant, you know why? Because look at those guys in that restaurant, they've been stealing from you. Society creates wealth and then greedy entrepreneurs come in and grab it. So here's what you do: you vote for me, I will take the cops and go get their stuff and then I will give some of it to you.'"
"You have here a dirty bargain by people who are appealing to the lowest impulses in human nature," D'Souza said, "and it's camouflaged under the banner of social justice. It's ultimately the biggest scam of them all":
