Republican-bashing is such low-hanging fruit

<p>^ No, not individually. The LCD effect sometimes means that they do collectively.</p>

<p>So I guess the free market doesn’t get individuals what they want. What a downer.</p>

<p>LOLLLL someone should bash Alvin Greene - he’s SOOOO FUNNNY OMGOMGOMG</p>

<p>If you read “all” the newspapers, you might be a republican.
If you confuse Lenin with Lennon, you might be a republican.
If you’re a pro-lifer but support the death penalty, you might be a republican.
If you’ve ever referred to someone as “my Hispanic friend,” you might be a republican.
If you think Ann Coulter is a dream girl, you might be a republican.
If you’ve ever told someone to pull themselves up by their bootstraps and they didn’t even have shoes, you might be a republican.

If you prefer war to diplomacy because it’s easier to spell, you might be a republican.
If you are rotating so fast that you think Fox News is standing still and the rest of the world is spinning, you might be a republican.</p>

<p>Just doing my part. And all those repubs out there, have a sense of humor. You guys on the whole aren’t the worst thing in the world but Bush gave you a bad name. I just happen to be a little left of center and those are funny.</p>

<p>If you read the New York Times, you are (grossly misinformed and) probably a liberal.
If you think Lenin great ideas, but we just needed smarter people from Harvard to implement them, you are probably a liberal.
If you are pro-choice but opposed to putting down stray dogs, then you are probably a liberal.

If you think that Janeane Garofalo and Rosie O’Donnel are hot, then you are probably a liberal.
If you’ve ever told someone that America no longer offers opportunity and you are on a free ride to college while your more affluent friend is attending State U, then you are probably a liberal.
If you believe that the Government isn’t violating your rights and you are in the 60% of Americans who pay no taxes, then you are probably a liberal.
If you think that the past 2 years of “Diplomacy” has made the US safer, then you are probably a liberal.
If you think that liberals value your basic rights but you avoid airports because you are going to be groped and scanned then you are probably a liberal.
If you think that good fiscal policy means filling your bank account with money borrowed from Communist governments, then you are probably a liberal.
If you think that you have access to fair and balanced reporting in a media world where 80% of reporters admit to being liberals WITHOUT the presence of Fox news, then you are probably a liberal.</p>

<p>Just doing my part.</p>

<p>The New York Times=grossly misinformed?</p>

<p>Huh. I never would have suspected.</p>

<p>[>bt:</a> Former New York Times Editor Describes Media Bias](<a href=“http://brain-terminal.com/posts/2009/09/30/former-new-york-times-editor-discusses-media-bias]>bt:”>http://brain-terminal.com/posts/2009/09/30/former-new-york-times-editor-discusses-media-bias)</p>

<p>You might want to start suspecting.</p>

<p>I would presume I don’t need to suspect since we know that the Media is the fourth estate and it was kinda obvious.</p>

<p>@debrockman: The problem is that yours aren’t funny. At least half of jkauf’s were.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>What? Three stars, since this might have been funny if I’d gotten it.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Meh, lacks wit. 4 stars.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>If you think sucking a baby through a vacuum cleaner is ok but giving a lethal injection to a convicted murderer is wrong, you might be a liberal.</p>

<p>And no, that’s not funny either. At all.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Five stars. Funny, but racial humor isn’t always ideal.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Six stars. Always funny to bring in hot girls, but too easy.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Nice. Apt, and makes a good play on words. Eight stars.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>It’d be funny if it wasn’t true.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>There are probably better war-related jokes. 4 stars.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>This would have been funny a year ago, but its time has come and gone. Five stars.</p>

<p>Humor is apparently in the eye of the beholder.</p>

<p>^ Well, to me a list of bad things about liberal doctrine followed by “you’re probably a liberal” isn’t that entertaining. More like scary. But to each his own. You probably don’t like my kind of humor either.</p>

<p>And the original post was not a list of perceived but not accurate aspects of Republicans followed by “you’re probably a Republican” and was not equivalently idiotic?
First of all, do you know that conservatives, particularly religious conservatives are considerably more generous than liberals? So, so much for the lecturing to those less fortunate about their bootstraps. In actuality, conservatives actually DIG into their pockets.
The definition of Republicans as stingy, unfeeling and uncaring is tired and inaccurate.

<p>What I want to know is why debrockman is in the HSL forum. I was on another forum where a she, an adult, just ■■■■■■■ on about her opinions after she was proved wrong time and time again.</p>

<p>^^ Which is what makes it funny… You must be new to HSL. I have a (partially deserved) reputation here as a fundamentalist Christian conservative flat earther.</p>

<p>Sorry, HSL’ers! I just saw this post on “latest posts” and piped in!</p>

<p>Mosby- When Sarah Palin was asked by Katie Couric what newspapers she reads she couldn’t name one and then said she reads all the newspapers and magazines.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I must say though, the idea that 60% of Americans don’t pay taxes is rather amusing.</p>

<p>debrockman- you are the reason I added the little section after because I know that there are republicans out there with absolutely no sense of humor or ability to laugh at themselves but I hoped none of them would show up here. Unfortunately it only took 30 minutes. And your “jokes” aren’t even funny/don’t make sense because you weren’t even creative enough to come up with your own lines. You had to try to copy mine which didn’t work out.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Since when has having a liberal bias make something “grossly misinformed”, unless you mean to say that every liberal is “grossly misinformed”. </p>

<p>Also I’m not going to be convinced by a media outlet whose articles are all *****ing about Barack Obama…and that’s it. And you’re trying to convince me that NYT’s bias makes it misinformed?</p>

<p>I thought the rest were funny, but that’s just stupid.</p>

<p>No, dare, I am telling you that if you rely on the NYT as your source of news, you are absolutely being misinformed. No differently than if you rely on Sean Hannity to give you your news. They are both incredibly biased. But Hannity doesn’t PRETEND to be a journalist.</p>
