allthumbs Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 If you want to be a Good and Loyal Democrat, there are some core myths you must believe: 1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of Federal funding. 2. 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. 3. You have to believe that guns, in the hands of law-abiding Americans, are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese communists. 4. You have to believe that there was no art, orchestras or ballet before Federal funding. 5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and more affected by yuppies driving SUVs. 6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial, but being homosexual is natural. 7. You have to be against capital punishment, but support abortion on demand. 8. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity. 9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but uneducated activists from Hollywood do. 10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it. 11. 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. 12. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high. 13. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides aren't. 14. 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. 15. You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar and sex offender belongs in the White House (from '93 through 2000)! 16. You have to believe that homosexual parades on public property should be constitutionally protected, and manger scenes on the courthouse lawn at Christmas should be illegal. 17. You have to believe that illegal Democratic Party funding by the Communist Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States. Vote Democratic ... It's easier than thinking!

catbirdseat Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 It worked then. He figures, why shouldn't it work now? Either that, or it's early onset senile dementia. The nice thing about that post is that it makes everything very simple. If you state things in black and white terms, it is very easy to get the opinion you seek.

mattp Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Since when was it a requirement that one be original around here? That would render just about all of us to the sidlines, save perhaps Teddy Ruxpin and Donna Topstep and their friends. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott_J Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 Now, Now, Matt, a good many of us have not seen some of the smut and sludge that gets posted here and there. It makes for good fun now and then. If people actually take the stuff that gets posted here seriously I pity the fool. for instance lets look at this: 1. Your idea of a traffic jam is ten cars waiting to pass a snow blower on The highway. 2. "Vacation" means going to Chena hot springs for the weekend. 3. You measure distance in hours. 4. You know several people who have hit Moose more than once. 5. You often switch from "heat" to "more heat" in the same day. 6. You use your auto-start in the summer because your lazy. 7. Your grandparents drive at 65 mph through red lights without flinching. 8. You see people wearing Carharts clothes at social events. 9. You install security lights on your house and garage and leave both unlocked. 10. You think of the major food groups as Moose meat, beer, fish, and jerky. 11. You carry jumper cables in your car and your wife knows how to use them. 12. There are 30 empty cars running in the parking lot at the Freddies store at any given time. 13. You design your kid's Halloween costume to fit over a snow suit. 14. Driving is better in the winter because the potholes are filled with ice. 15. You think sexy lingerie is tube socks and long underwear. 16. You know all 4 seasons: almost winter, winter, still winter,& construction. 17. It takes you 3 hours to go to the store for one item even when you're in a rush because you have to wait for the Idiot with two wheel drive and no studs to get out of your way. 18. You actually understand these jokes and forward them to all your friends from Alaska. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ursa_Eagle Posted October 7, 2003 Share Posted October 7, 2003 If you want to be a Good and Loyal Republican, there are some core myths you must believe: 1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is divine retribution. 2. You have to believe that the same teacher who teaches bible school on Sunday is most qualified to teach 4th graders about sex. 3. You have to believe that if we only had enough guns everyone would be safe. 4. You have to believe that art should be only for the rich. 5. You have to believe that if we come up with enough excuses to do nothing we can ignore global warming and sell more SUVs to get rich while millions go under the waves in Bangladesh. 6. You have to believe that women should be kept barefoot and pregnant and that homosexuals should get electroshock treatment. 7. You rather kill people after they have become criminals instead of prevent them from being born as unwanted children in the first place. 8. You have to believe that business will take care of you even as they export your job overseases. 9. You have to believe that if you can't shoot it, log it, or dam it ain't worth shit. 10. You have to believe that money will make you happy. 11. You have to believe that with a big enough military, you don't need diplomacy. 12. You have to believe the NRA is good because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is bad, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution. 13. You have to believe that if you cut taxes for the wealthy enough the deficit will go away. 14. You have to believe that Milton J. Freedman, Henry Ford and John D. Rockafeller are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, Abraham Lincoln, or Albert Einstein. 15. You have to believe that "colored" races are poor because they are inferior and test scores prove it. 16. You have to believe the best way to keep the health insurance industry rich is to attack Hillary Clinton. 17. You have to believe that socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried. 18. You have to believe liberals telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar and a coke head belongs in the White House. 19. You have to believe Christianity should be promoted by the government because "we were first", despite the fact that the Constitution forbids the favoring of one religion over another. 20. You have to believe that illegal Republican party funding by large corporations disguised as individual contributions is somehow in the best interest of the United States. 21. You have to believe that anyone who beats you in an intellectual arguments is a bigot. Vote Republican ... It's easier than thinking!

You have to believe that illegal Democratic Party funding by the Communist Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States. Vote Democratic ... It's easier than thinking! You're absolutely right, Trask. Now compare to the Republican philosophy: I am a Republican because... I believe the strength of our nation lies with the individual and that each person's dignity, freedom, ability and responsibility must be honored. I believe in equal rights, equal justice and equal opportunity for all, regardless of race, creed, sex, age or disability. I believe free enterprise and encouraging individual initiative have brought this nation opportunity, economic growth and prosperity. I believe government must practice fiscal responsibility and allow individuals to keep more of the money they earn. I believe the proper role of government is to provide for the people only those critical functions that cannot be performed by individuals or private organizations and that the best government is that which which governs least. I believe the most effective, responsible and responsive government is government closest to the people. I believe Americans must retain the principles that have made us strong while developing new and innovative ideas to meet the challenges of changing times. I believe Americans value and should preserve our national strength and pride while working to extend peace, freedom and human rights throughout the world. Finally, I believe the Republican Party is the best vehicle for translating these ideals into positive and successful principles of government. The choice is clear. We're in good hands. Why would anyone want to be a Democrat? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Charlie Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 The 10 year note is 100.19, up .31. This will have a positive effect on mortgage rates- I would float, leaning towards a lock on Friday or possibly Monday, depending on where we're at Friday. This morning I'm wearing my favorite underwear- red and blue boxers, made by polo. I just made myself a fried egg, covered in melted cheese, served on an english muffin.

slothrop Posted October 8, 2003 Share Posted October 8, 2003 (edited) Believe what you read in Spray and email forwards... it's easier than thinking! Any Democrat or Republican who believes everything in those lists deserves a slap upside the head. And since when is adultery a sex crime? Don't you bone the neighbor's wife every Sunday morning, trask? Edited October 8, 2003 by slothrop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
