The Parrot, a symbol befitting the tea party

[Quantum Windbag]

Democrats are identified by the humble and courageous Ass; Republicans by the dignified and intelligent Elephant; I propose that the Tea Party adopt or be defined by the colorful Parrot. A bird-brain to be sure, yet one which repeats simple phrases without thought attached.

What say you?

Post a picture of the parrot you hope to represent the mind and soul of their brethren, human bird-brains.

Humble and courageous ass? Dignified and intelligent elephant?

I think you are full of shit.

Actually I thought it was funny when I read it, see:

Donkey and Elephant--Political Animals

From the link above: "The Democrats think of the elephant as bungling, stupid, pompous and conservative -- but the Republicans think it is dignified, strong and intelligent. On the other hand, the Republicans regard the donkey as stubborn, silly and ridiculous -- but the Democrats claim it is humble, homely, smart, courageous and loveable."

"Perhaps most important parrot quality is their bonding ability with humans. These birds have very long life spans, some living more than 80 years. The bond that develops between owner and bird is much deeper than with other pets. It is close to that of a human mate, and almost impossible to describe. Caring, loving, understanding and nurturing, a sense of emotional intimacy is established between owner and bird. Highly intelligent, parrots sense your emotions as well as communicate their own to you. The parrot literally grows up with the family, eating, bathing and sleeping on very much the same schedule as its human companions; and the bird often is passed on to the next generation in the family. "

Parrots are easy to care for -- they do not need to be walked outdoors in the rain and snow. Any "mess" is contained to some newspaper in their cage; and if you decide to let them roam the house (which should only be done with supervision) most birds can be potty trained. They eat human food -- fruits, vegetables, cooked beans, pasta, rice, cereals and occasional nuts -- not odd smelling dog or cat food. Contrary to the old concept of a box of bird seed, our birds need and enjoy almost all the same foods that we eat. Supplemented with commercial pelleted food, parrots easily receive a balanced meal.

Parrots? Is that the kind of brain dead stuff we are going to see from the left for the next 13 months? Naa naa, naa naa.

No parrots were injured in the production of my thread. Parrots are interesting creatures and quite colorful. I have no doubt they make nice pets. However, dogs rule, cats droll but also purr, but birds talk too much and say too little - exactly like humans of the New Right.

"Naa nas, naa nass". Hmmm, I guess some on the right are less articulate than the average parrot.

Now, word about the donkeys:

All About DONKEYS!


Feeding Your Donkeys

Donkeys characteristically get by on less food than a horse of similar size, and need a lower protein content in their feed. Good grass hay and pasture is usually all a donkey needs. If grained, the protein should preferably be lower than 12%. Donkeys can founder on rich food such as alfalfa and lush spring grass. A fat donkey will develop a "roll"; on the neck, pones of fat on the barrel and over the hips that are quite unsightly. Once there, these are usually with the donkey for life. If the neck roll of fat gets too heavy, it will fall or "break over" to one side and never come upright again! Beware overfeeding these hearty creatures!
Your donkey should receive the same hoof care, worming and vaccinations that horses receive. Although some basic research has been done in independent studies on the results of vaccinations in donkeys, there is not enough conclusive proof to show that regular horse medicines, wormers and vaccinations are not effective in donkeys.


Hoof shape varies as well, donkey hooves are smaller and rounder, with more upright pasterns. The legs should have good bone, but many donkeys of common breeding may appear to have long thin legs with tiny feet. Larger Asses such as the Poitou or Andalusian types may appear opposite, with huge, heavy shaggy legs and large round feet. Good legs and feet are essential for breeding Mules, as a good foot is much preferable to a large body on tiny stick legs and feet.

Sammyboy, long time no post. Did you make bail? Must suck being locked up for a victimless crime. Who was to know smelling bicycle seats at the local school would get you locked up.

You must be a teapartier then to have parroted this idea

tea party parrot - Bing

OMG!

Projection defined!

HUH?

the tendency to ascribe to another person feelings, thoughts, or attitudes present in oneself, or to regard external reality as embodying such feelings, thoughts, etc., in some way.

A perfect description of the homophobic callous conservatives and one which characterizes many of the posts by the purveyors of idiotgrams on this message board. I posted a humorous thread, albeit one which depicts reality. If I parrot the ideas or words of others I'd be surprised, as I was when I followed PP's link. There is nothing new under the sun, I suppose, but my thread was not plagiarized nor a product of projection.

I was just busting your chops in good fun man.
