Fun little e-mail forward I wanted to share..
You've gotta believe:
Saddam was a good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney did business with him and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony.
A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation.
Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton.
The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay.
If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex.
Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism.
HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at heart.
Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools.
A president lying about an extramarital affair is a impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.
Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.
The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's cocaine conviction is none of our business.
Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery.
You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt.
What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant.

More fun for ya!  ;D To be a liberal, you have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of funding. You have to be against capital punishment, but for abortion on demand -- in short, you support protecting the guilty and killing the innocent. You have to believe that the same public school teacher who can't teach fourth graders how to read is qualified to teach them about sex. To be a liberal, you have to believe that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat to the country than nuclear weapons in the hands of the Red Chinese. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the brilliance of the sun, and more affected by yuppies driving SUVs. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being gay is natural. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create wealth and prosperity. To be a liberal, you have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it. You have to believe there was no art before federal funding. You have to believe the military, not corrupt politicians, start wars. You have to believe the NRA is bad, because they stand up for certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because they stand up for certain parts of the Constitution. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides are not. You have to believe conservatives are racists, but saying “black people couldn’t make it without your help” is not a racist statement. You have to believe trial lawyers are selfless heroes and doctors are overpaid. To be a liberal, you have to believe that taxes are too low but ATM fees are too high. You have to believe the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried is because the right people haven't been in charge. Have a blessed day! LJ |

Trade with Cuba is wrong because the country is communist, but trade with China and Vietnam is vital to a spirit of international harmony. A woman can't be trusted with decisions about her own body, but multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind without regulation. When was the last time a corporation made a decision to kill someone's baby? [/color] Jesus loves you, and shares your hatred of homosexuals and Hillary Clinton. Republicans don't hate homosexuals. I'm sure there are homo's who are Republicans. [/color] The best way to improve military morale is to praise the troops in speeches while slashing veterans' benefits and combat pay. Isn't that what Kerry does? [/color] If condoms are kept out of schools, adolescents won't have sex. No, Republicans believe that it is the job of parents to teach their children about sex, not liberal promoters of sex in schools like Joyceln Elders [/color] Providing health care to all Iraqis is sound policy. Providing health care to all Americans is socialism. Another lie [/color] HMOs and insurance companies have the best interests of the public at heart. Global warming and tobacco's link to cancer are junk science, but creationism should be taught in schools. Global warming is junk science. Tobacco does lead to cancer. [/color] A president lying about an extramarital affair is a impeachable offense. A president lying to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy. Clinton was impeached for lying under oath in a court of law.
Bush didn't lie about Iraq.
[/color] Government should limit itself to the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet. You mean like abortion which isn't constitutional is alright? [/color] The public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades, but George Bush's cocaine conviction is none of our business. Yes, because Hillary's was security fraud.
We don't know about Bush and cocaine rumors. [/color] Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you're a conservative radio host. Then it's an illness, and you need our prayers for your recovery. It depends on what one does to aquire the drugs, and if the drugs are legal or not. [/color] You support states' rights, which means Attorney General John Ashcroft can tell states what local voter initiatives they have the right to adopt. What Bill Clinton did in the 1960s is of vital national interest, but what Bush did in the '80s is irrelevant. Yes, because he was/is a communist sympathizer who aided our enemy in a time of war.
Bush isn't. [/color] |

MorningStar - "Some people really don't understand humor, do they?"
You can usually count on the tinfoil hat club for that. Sad, really.

Some people really don't understand humor, do they? Humor based in truth is funny. When it's based in lies or distortions, it isn't
If you want to see funny humor, go to "jibjab.com" and see "My Land" with Bush and Kerry singing.
Now, that's real humor.
