Conservatives less likely to give treats to children on Halloween (survey)

[antiimperialist]

My suspicions have been confirmed. Conservatives are more likely than us liberals to be a-holes.

"Nearly two-thirds of the people in the survey said their households will distribute Halloween treats to children who come to call. Seventy percent of people in the poll who consider themselves liberals and 67 percent of the moderates questioned said they would hand out treats, compared with 55 percent of conservatives."

No wonder they are against SCHIP.

1. thats because

half of those nut bags think it's "Satan's Holiday".

5. Well, apparently 45% do

But, yes, that's the major reason they don't participate.

You would get similar results if you asked them "How many of you will take your children to see Harry Potter?"

2. Repugs have 2 uses for children...

1. they are future soldiers
2. they are potential victims

[flvegan]

3. “People are celebrating the dead. I’m not into that.”

:rofl:

4. Only 55% give treats?

Wow. What do they do when kids ring their doorbells?

[mcscajun]

6. They turn off their porch and kitchen lights and cower quietly in the corner

of a darkened living room watching Hannity or one of his colleages until the "little bastards" go away, what else?

[Sparkly]

9. I guess. "Get down, Fern! It's another 5-year-old celebrating the dead!!"

:scared:

7. Kids don't

Usually, true conservatives turn off their light and go to church to pray for the souls of the wicked.

8. Most likely the lights at home are off

and they're employing the wide stance at a public restroom somewhere.

10. Halloween is

the only holiday that offers brings a community together and offer a gift and ask nothing in return. Sounds rather liberal Christian to me. I can certainly understand where neocons would have a problem with that!

11. doesn't surprize me one bit

aren't they the ones who turn off their lights and pretend not to be home?
