Talk about a stupid post...
Saw this stupid bullshit on a message board...

The History of Liberals & Conservatives

Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic
hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the
summer and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the
winter.

The two most important events in all of history were the
invention of beer and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was
invented to get man to the beer. These were the foundation of modern
civilization and together were the catalyst for the splitting of
humanity into two distinct subgroups:

1. Liberals; and

2. Conservatives.

When beer was discovered, it required grain, and that was the
beginning of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle, nor aluminum can
were invented yet, so while our early humans were sitting around
waiting for them to be invented, they just stayed close to the
brewery. That is how villages were formed.

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to
B-B-Q at night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning
of what is known as the Conservative movement.

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned
to live off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly B-B-Q's
and doing the sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the
beginning of the Liberal movement.

Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. The
rest became known as girliemen.

Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the domestication
of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept
of Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that
conservatives provided.

Over the years conservatives came to be symbolized by the
largest, most powerful land animal on earth, the elephant. Liberals
are symbolized by the jackass.

Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most
prefer white wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish but
like their beef well done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are
standard liberal fare.

Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their
women have higher testosterone levels than their men. Most social
workers, personal injury attorneys, journalists, dreamers in
Hollywood and group therapists are liberals. Liberals invented the
designated hitter rule because it wasn't fair to make the pitcher
also bat.

Conservatives drink domestic beer. They eat red meat and still
provide for their women.

Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys,
lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police
officers, corporate executives, athletes, Marines, and generally
anyone who works productively. Conservatives who own companies hire
other conservatives who want to work for a living.

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the
producers and decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe
Europeans are more enlightened than Americans. That is why most of
the liberals remained in Europe when conservatives were coming to
America. They crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a
business of trying to get more for nothing.

Here ends today's lesson in world history: It should be noted
that a Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily respond to the
above before forwarding it. A Conservative will simply laugh and be
so convinced of the absolute truth of this history that it will be
forwarded immediately to other true believers and to more liberals
just to piss them off.



Homophobia, misogyny, xenophobia, this gem has it all.

What is it about these morans that associate having left-of center political beliefs with being "less manly"? And another thing, that bit about cons being cowboys, constuction workers, police officers and soldiers... Hey, wait a minute... that sounds awfully familiar....



Methinks the guy who posted this doth protested too much.

4. about the jackass
This guy gave a great presentation at our club.

http://www.donkeyrescue.org/plight_of_american_donkey.htm

He does not seem to have the best write-up on his site though, but when he told it he really made the donkey seem like an awesome animal. They are very tough and smart and loyal. They can run 30 miles an hour and have no enemies in the west. He said, for example, that he was walking with a group of donkeys when they were attack by a pack of wild dogs. The donkeys ran down and killed the dogs and then came back to make sure he was all right.

5. Well at least this one believes in evolution.
Even if it was men turning into women.

I have to say there won't be a healing in the great American gap. I think it has always been there, but Bush just made it surface. Actually it was like this during Vietnam, as well.


YUCK. Ignorance is nothing to be proud of.

9. It might be a good idea
Edited on Sat Aug-18-07 07:08 AM by quantessd
to hammer out some equally preposterous theories explaining why *all* Republicans have kinky fetishes, and/or are closet gays.

Do you ever wonder why conservatives enjoy kinky diaper sex? It's because crapping on the world turns them on.

(lurkers or newbies, I'm referring to David Vitter-R soliciting prostitutes for diaper changes.)

10. It must be so nice to see the world in such simpleminded terms.
If ignorance is bliss, conservatives are the most blissful people around.

11. Interesting that there is beer but no science.
Then again, science has a "liberal" bias. :)

Edited on Sat Aug-18-07 11:40 AM by Cheap_Trick
by my father-in-law. I sent a detailed list of the many "girly"dems and libs in our government who served in the military versus the few "manly"repugs who did and asked, "Now who're the pussies?".

13. This can be explained by the last 30 years of "rebranding" liberal
Which has worked so well, mostly because the Democrats and Liberals themselves mostly never opposed it or tried to understand the marketing concepts behind it.

The ridiculous notion that there are no liberals who drink beer, shoot guns, or do productive work is nonsensical.

Is there a bit of a tilt in one direction or another? Sure. Not many ultra-conservatives go into teaching group psychotherapy, and not many ultra-liberals go into Tobacco Advertising.

But this employs all the ridiculous memes that have been repeated for so long without serious opposition for so long now they are lamsot regarded as "conventional wisdom" and we are all to blame for allowing it to be so, but none moreso than our Democratic Leadership, who let it all happen and whom I still think do not recognize the fulls cope of who they face.

There is so much more, but let's just say this piece is designed much better for American Fascism as Goebbels' stuff was for German Facsism.

American Fascist Propaganda must be much more subtle, use the techniques of modern marketing, psychology, and rebranding, but create the same kind of demonization and other-ness that the Nazis practiced on their targets, first rhetorically, then physically.

14. It meets conservative standards as both humor and history.
Even dummies need to laugh and feel superior once in a while. Then Mom calls them down for dinner and makes them clean Dad's aquarium.

There is an element of truth in the hunter-gatherer dichotomy obviously. Dick Cheney is a hunter by conservative standards. George W. Bush is a man by their standards.

So much for their standards.
