It's a combination of cognitive dissonance and what Ayn Rand aptly characterized as a "blank out." And that's the mildest case. Try telling your average shitlib that no nation ever taxed itself into prosperity. It will take them a few momentsnto process what you just said before they explode into paroxisms of spittle-flecked rage, hate and name-calling. Properly speaking, it's a psychotic break.
