Projection and the Shadow

Andrew Sullivan's blog had interesting things to say today about Jungian psychology and Obama-phobia. I'm not that big on Jung, but I do agree that the right-wing (whatever that means these days) seem to accuse Obama of doing the sorts of things they would like to have a strong leader on their side do for them. They accuse him of being a ruthless totalitarian dear-leader because that's their secret ideal.
