'bout sums it up..:clap2::lol:

I'd add "it's all about me, me, me, me, me, me"
 
You might be a Liberal if you get so mad at being called one you steal someone else's idea and make a counter thread that's not nearly as well thought out nor as well researched.

From the thread starter's second post.

I hope you all enjoyed it!

Merry Christmas to liberals and conservatives alike.

I am looking forward to someone posting a 'you may be a conservative if...' thread.

I stole nothing.
And I gave it 5 minutes of my time. I'm not that serious in making a point.

Seasons greetings.....

You might be a conservative if you sign a petition to ban marriage between Klingons and Romulans...

What about Vulcans and Romulans? Incest??? :eek:

I don't know...the Romulan Commander really had the hots for Spock in "The Enterprise Incident"

Thanks Alvin. good stuff

I have not read the OP's of both threads in full, but found some of the "if"s to be worth a good chuckle. I hope to have a moment later to read both in full.

Thanks to both for trying to bring a little bit of humor into the day.

Immie
 
Just humor... I actually thought some were pretty funny... particularly "You've named your kids "Deduction one" and "Deduction two"."... as I have actually joked about that with my kids... and my oldest as an infant, actually had a one-sie that had "Daddy's little tax deduction" on the front... LOL
 
For the political junkies, please check out Hirschman's book noted below. It fits the right so well today, republicans too, and offers an explanation of a phenomenon that constantly amazes. It should be required reading.

[RP] Place yourself in a cave with a conservative and a liberal. One will argue that change is not possible, that leaving the cave will be dangerous, that raising crops is not possible and will ruin hunting; the other will say let's try it, I think it can work, this cave is dark and dingy, I like the sun, and we can do better. One can then extrapolate to any historic time and use our two people. Slavery - suffrage - equal rights - welfare - better working conditions - labor laws - minimum wage - social security, you name them and you know who will move forward and who will stand still. Albert Hirschman calls this reactionary tactic by three thesis tags: Perversity, futility, and jeopardy. Or 'it will make things worse, it won't work, or it will ruin existing structure.

Partisans are all retarded tools of the republicrats
 
This thread is funny, but not in a way that makes anyone laugh, more like a Carrot Top type of funny.

Well done, Alvin, well done!

I got that one-sie for my boy too.

Funny as hell.
 
Thanks for the humor, Alvin. If we can't laugh at ourselves, you're taking life way too serious.
