18 WAYS TO BE A GOOD LIBERAL
(With apologizes to any liberals around here :grin:)


1. You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on
demand.



2. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments
create prosperity.



3. You have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding citizens are
more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Iran
or Chinese and North Korean communists.



4. You have to believe that there was no art before federal funding.



5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by
cyclical changes in the earth's climate and more affected by soccer moms
driving SUV's.



6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial, but being
homosexual is natural.



7. You have to believe that the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal
funding.



8. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th- graders
how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.



9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but PETA
activists do.



10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually
doing something to earn it.



11. You have to believe that Mel Gibson spent $25 million of his own money
to make "The Passion of the Christ" for financial gain only.



12. You have to believe the NRA is bad because it supports certain parts of
the Constitution, while the ACLU is good because it supports certain parts
of the Constitution.



13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.



14. You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more
important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, Gen. Robert E. Lee, and
Thomas Edison.



15. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial
quotas and set-asides are not.



16. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked
anywhere it's been tried is because the right people haven't been in charge.




17. You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag queens and
transve stites should be constitutionally protected, and manger scenes at
Christmas should be illegal.



18. You have to believe that this message is a part of a vast, right-wing
conspiracy.



GOD BLESS AMERICA Oops, can't do that either

i don;t know man...If I had to choose I would consider myself a liberal, and quite frankly I took offense to many of those statements. LIke I said, I consider myself a liberal...but have never implied...anywhere...that American;s don;t have a right to carry a gun. I've never said manger scenes should be illegal. I do believe that human interactions have sped up the natural cyclic process of global warming, and that we have reached levels and situations NEVER before experienced in our planets mulit-billion year history. and I certainly believe public education is our countries best chance...with proper support and funding that is.

OK, sorry, felt like getting intense there for a second...I'll step off the soapbox now!:grin:

I think you're forgetting this is in the Comdey section.

Jokes pertain to different political parties, races and genders to name a few.

Ha-ha! It's supposed to be offensive...it's a tasteless joke! :grin: Someone could easily devise a similar list for conservatives as well.




(personall, I fall somewhere in middle, but I still thought it was funny)
