Disturbing the dinner of all of our customers was an act of selfishness and void of decency.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Democrats and leftists are nothing if not disturbing, selfish, and void of decency.<\/p>\n<p>The comments came after a bunch of angry activists showed up outside the front of the restaurant, where Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh was dining. They called the manager, demanding that Kavanaugh be denied service, which resulted in the justice having to sneak out through a back door.<\/p>\n<p>The left-wing Twitter account \u201cShutDownDC\u201d triumphantly tweeted that Mortons \u201cshould be ashamed for welcoming a man who so clearly hates women.\u201d Then it put out <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ShutDown_DC\/status\/1545421407223521280\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a call<\/a> for all service workers in the city to report sightings of any of the Republican-appointed Supreme Court justices, even offering as much as $200 if more bitter activists are able to show up in time to harass them again.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s hardly shocking anymore. As I write in my new book \u201c<a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Liberal-Misery-Hateful-Everything-Everyone\/dp\/1637584350\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Liberal Misery: How the Hateful Left Sucks Joy Out of Everything and Everyone<\/a>,\u201d we\u2019re all becoming numb to how angry, vindictive, and petty the left is. When things aren\u2019t going their way, there\u2019s no limits to the grief and ruin they\u2019re willing to inflict on us all.<\/p>\n<p>Recall that just a few months ago, when the national supply chain issues were quickly making it impossible to buy anything, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/opinion\/democrats-loved-covid-pandemic-they-wanted-you-love-it\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">response<\/a> from liberals was: <em>Just buy less and shut up. <\/em><\/p>\n<p>When those annoying mask mandates were once again pulled back, their <a href=\"https:\/\/thefederalist.com\/2022\/02\/17\/democrats-2022-slogan-enjoy-this-small-break-from-covid-mandates-were-bestowing-upon-you\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">response<\/a> was: <em>I don\u2019t care, I\u2019m still wearing mine, and screw everyone else who won\u2019t do the same.<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The wildly popular \u201cLibs of TikTok\u201d Twitter account is nothing more than a collection of furious leftists in their own words. Naturally, they tried shutting it down.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s endless. After the Kavanaugh episode, The Washington Post\u2019s Alexandra Petri displayed her talent as the paper\u2019s \u201chumor columnist\u201d to mock the justice\u2019s right to have dinner in public unmolested. \u201cThe right to congregate and eat dinner is actually not to be found anywhere in the Constitution,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/opinions\/2022\/07\/08\/brett-kavanaugh-dinner-steakhouse-mortons-protest-satire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">she wrote<\/a>, probably while crying and cursing.<\/p>\n<p>This is the joyless left.
