As the 2012 election is now over, Barack Obama has won a second term. Many wonder how his policies, his administration, and how the entire political arena, will change our future.


A Very Accurate Comparison

Postby frrostedman » Sun Nov 15, 2009 1:40 am

Received this in an email... most of it isn't even debatable. I like the color I chose for the text. Baby sh*t green. Perfect.





If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn`t buy one.
If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.

If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn`t eat meat.
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.



If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy.
A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.

If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.

If a black man or Hispanic are conservative, they see themselves as independently successful.
Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.

If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.

If a conservative doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels.
Liberals demand that those they don’t like be shut down.

If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church.
A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it’s a foreign religion, of course!)

If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.



If a conservative slips and falls in a store, he gets up, laughs and is embarrassed.
If a liberal slips and falls, he grabs his neck, moans like he's in labor and then sues.

... Some of those seem reversed.
War is an extension of economics and diplomacy through other means.

Economics and diplomacy are methods of securing resources used by humans.

Securing resources is the one necessary behavior for all living things.

Frrosty, here's the 2009/10 version:

If a conservative doesn't like something, he/she doesn't participate. If a liberal doesn't like something, he/she tries to rewrite the Constitution so lawyers and politicians get rich(er) while accomplishing absolutely nothing except virtually enslaving the poor and bleeding the taxpayers dry.

Darn. I left out the Media Darling/Center of Attention part. C'est la vie, mes amis.

You're kidding me right? If anyone has bled the tax payers dry its the conservatives,but quite frankly I think both parties are full of hypocrites that will use whatever means of deception they can for their own agendas.

Pick your poison. Conservatives and Libertarians believe in less control which leaves corporations free reign to suck you dry. Liberals believe in total control which curtails the power of the corporations--but then the government grows bigger and raises taxes.

I prefer the former, because if I want to stick it to a corporation, I can buy my products from someone else. In the latter case, you go to jail if you don't pay.

That’s interesting because I would pick the government over a corporation any day.

Think about it. You can always fight a government but all the corporation needs to do is change its name and clear out a few offices and they’re back in business again.

Always take the enemy you can see.
