You know you're a liberal when... |
You know you are a liberal when...
....you preach tolerance but condemn any view not in line with your
own.
....you seek to include diverse views, except for conservatives, pro-
lifers, the homophobic, male driven organizations, the views of the
wealthy, etc.
....you get rich from preaching wealth-hate to the poor.
....you want affirmative action (forcing businesses to hire minorities
to equalize the rate of minorities with national percentages) in
business but deny the same for NFL or NBA sports teams.
....you want to make Tobacco illegal for health reasons but legalize
drugs ignoring health reasons.
....you increase property taxes, sales taxes, income taxes, death
taxes, etc and then condemn "the rich white man" for poverty.
....You heap new environmental and corporate taxes on fuel companies
and complain when the gas prices go up a buck.
....You clock many air miles in your 747 private jet campaigning on the
damaging effects of pollution on global warming.
....You militantly oppose war but blame the government when terrorists
slam jets into our public buildings killing thousands.
....You sue any prayer in public schools but celebrate meditation and
yoga being used there.
....You see no problem publically funding NPR, even after a McDonalds
heir leaves them 200 million dollars in a will (the budget of NPR is
less than a Million a year).
....You celebrate NPR and PBS as counters to Rush Limbaugh but deny
using public funds to push a particular point of view.
That's just a few for now.

You're out of material when you start anything with "you know you're a..."
All this crap below? Nothing new there either. Nothing there true, either.

"Wealth-hate"?
Sounds remarkably like what Jesus preached.

You know you are a fundie extremist and/or President when [modified
appropriately]:
...you condemn any view not in line with your own.
...you seek to exclude diverse views, except for conservatives, pro-
lifers, the homophobic, male driven organizations, the views of the
wealthy, etc.
...you get rich from preaching hate to the poor.
...you want affirmative action for faith-based groups but deny the same for colleges.
...you want to make everything you disapprove illegal for spiritual reasons but keep certain drugs like nicotine and alcohol legal
ignoring health reasons so that you can make money off the repenting sinners, and support drug addicts like Rush Limbaugh and adulterers
like Newt Gingrich while claiming the moral high ground
...you reduce property taxes, sales taxes, income taxes, death
taxes, etc and then spend the next generation's money on invading Iraq to export your beliefs as part of a "crusade", meanwhile
failing to do squat about social security, and taxing the elderly in the form of increased drug costs so as to provide more profits to
your drug company cronies.
...You heap new environmental and corporate giveaways on fuel companies
and complain when the gas prices go up a buck.
...You clock many air miles in your 747 publicly funded jet campaigning against the
damaging effects of cutting pollution to stave off global warming for the benefit of your big industry supporters
and then flip-flop when politically convenient, while not actually offering any solutions
...You militantly support war and blame the liberals when terrorists
slam jets into our public buildings killing thousands. You refuse to take any sort of responsibility for anything that goes wrong,
and never fire anyone, no matter how incompetent or even criminal, so long as he is loyal to your ideology.
...You support any Christian prayer in public schools but oppose allowing a Wiccan to serve as a military chaplain, despite an exemplary
service record
...You see a problem publically funding 2% of the budget of NPR, even after a McDonalds
heir leaves them 200 million dollars in a will, because you have the silly idea that the budget of NPR is
less than a Million a year (it actually was $101 million in 2003, the year before the request, and was $120 million in 2005 afterwards).
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/NPR
You think that 200 million is a lot of money, ignoring that CBS, one of the competitors of NPR, has an annual income of $14 billion per year and profits of $5 billion per year, whereas NPR is a non-profit organization (that needs contributions in order to make any enhancements to their programming in order to remain competitive)
...You think of NPR and PBS as a "counter to Rush Limbaugh" and assume that means that they are
using public funds to push a particular point of view rather than using almost entirely private funds to provide programming that promotes
a variety of thoughtful views, in contrast to the extremist-funded singular thoughtless views of a drug addict entertainer.
That's just a few for now.

Say, WHAT? FYI, you lying fucking moron, NPR's budget is well over ONE
HUNDRED MILLION DOLLARS per year and has been for a decade. IOW, lying
stupid *****, you're only off by a factor of AT LEAST ONE HUNDRED!
Witness, stupid lying *****, what one can learn when one ISN'T a stupid
lying rightard superstitious bible thumping hypocritical ***** stain:
http://www.npr.org/about/privatesupport.html
Now, lying stupid *****, you were busily lying your stupid ***** off before
I so interrupted with facts. By all means, lying stupid ***** please do go
on...
Nice job, ***** for brains. I couldn't possibly have done a better job of
proving you a lying stupid ***** than you have done yourself. And that's
just ONE of your stupid ***** lies exposed for all to see.
Now, go explain to your god why every time you open your stupid *****
mouth more filthy lies fall out...

Sorry, let me clarifly. The Govt. funds 1 percent of their budget,
which is 1 million per year. But, the McDonalds funds would cover
that for 200 years.

So, your "clarification" is to compare a one time private donation via
inheritance to annual governmental operating funds, which, in any event,
come to less than a third of a penny per capita? Oh yeah, THAT sure makes
you look smaterer and smarterer...
