Here's my list:
25 RULES FOR BEING A GOOD CONSERVATIVE
1) Being a drug addict is a moral failing and a crime, unless you are a millionaire conservative radio jock, which makes it an "illness" and needs our prayers for your "recovery."
2) You have to believe that those privileged from birth achieve success all on their own.
3) You have to believe that the US should get out of the UN, and that our highest national priority is enforcing UN resolutions against Iraq.
4) You have to believe that government should stay out of people's lives but it needs to punish anyone caught having private sex with the "wrong" gender.
5) You have to believe that pollution is ok, so long as it makes a profit.
6) You have to believe in prayer in schools, as long as you don't pray to Allah or Buddha.
7) "Standing Tall for America" means firing your workers and moving their jobs to India.
8) You have to believe that a woman cannot be trusted with decisions about her own body, but that large multi-national corporations can make decisions affecting all mankind with no regulation whatsoever.
9) You have to believe that you love Jesus and Jesus loves you, and that Jesus shares your hatred of AIDS victims, homosexuals, and Hillary Clinton.
10) You hate the ACLU for representing convicted felons, but they owed it to the country to bail out Oliver North and back Rush Limbaugh.
11) You have to believe that the best way to encourage military morale is to praise the troops overseas while cutting their VA benefits.
12) You believe that group sex and drug use are degenerate sins that can only be purged by running for governor of California as a Republican.
13) You have to believe it is wise to keep condoms out of schools, because we all know if teenagers don't have condoms they won't have sex.
14) You have to believe that the best way to fight terrorism is to belittle our allies every chance you get and then demand their cooperation and money.
15) You have to believe that government medicine is wrong and that HMO's and insurance companies only have your best interests at heart.
16) You have to believe that providing health care to all Iraqis is sound government policy but providing health care to all Americans is socialism personified.
17) You believe that tobacco's link to cancer and global warming are "junk science" but Creationism should be taught in schools.
17.5) You have to believe that biology teachers are corrupting the morals of 6th graders if they teach them the basics of human sexuality, but the Bible, which is full of sex and violence, is just good reading.
18) You have to believe that waging war with no exit strategy was wrong in Vietnam but right in Iraq.
19) You have to believe that Saddam was good guy when Reagan armed him, a bad guy when Bush's daddy made war on him, a good guy when Cheney was doing business with him, and a bad guy when Bush needed a "we can't find Bin Laden" diversion.
20) You believe that government should restrict itself to just the powers named in the Constitution, which include banning gay marriages and censoring the Internet.
21) You have to believe that a president lying about an extramarital affair is an impeachable offense, but one who lies to enlist support for a war in which thousands die is solid defense policy.
22) You have to believe that the public has a right to know about Hillary's cattle trades but that Bush was right to censor those 28 pages from the Congressional 9/11 report because you just can't handle the truth.
23) You have to believe that trade with Cuba is wrong because it is communist, but trading with China and Vietnam is just dandy
24) You have to believe someone is the pinnacle of professional ethics and morals as long as he works for you and carries the company line - but that he is the scum of the earth and deserves dicrediting if he ever speaks against the party.
25) You claim to be the 'Christian Party' but are against feeding the hungry, housing the homeless, healing the weak, preaching tolerance, and spreading the peace. Are you a liberal? anyone can copy and paste...why dont you say your own ideas yup thats me in a nut shell! Trish, you are right on the money with this one! All so true! you had a brain It is critical to note that the chief architects of the Bush Doctrine, which ensures that the poor and working class of America were (and will continue to be) thrust into the inferno of war, found ways to evade conscription into service during previous US imperialistic endeavors. Bush, Cheney, "Scooter" Libby, Karl Rove, and Paul Wolfowitz each sat safely on the sidelines during the Vietnam invasion, which claimed the lives of 58,000 Americans (and an estimated 3 million Vietnamese). Donald Rumsfeld rested comfortably in his dorm room at Princeton while 37,000 Americans died in Korea (with an estimated 2.5 million Koreans). As a vehement opponent of US imperialistic wars, I would laud them for choosing not to participate in those wars were it not for the fact that now that they are ineligible for military service (and enjoy more security than any humans on the planet), they use the poor and working class as disposable components of their military industrial machine to advance US corporate and plutocratic interests. While one could argue that the current military personnel joined voluntarily, it is quite reasonable to conclude that most US soldiers did not sign on to die for the expansion of an imperialistic empire and the further enrichment of America 's elite.
But what do you and your kind care? You have Fox and others mindless drones to tell you sweet little lies that you are so ready to accept,so that you can sleep. Too too funny! Keep it up YOU STAND ON YOUR HEAD AND TELL EVERYONE THAT THEY ARE UP-SIDE DOWN. Well Done. Bravo. Also:
If you haven't shaved since 1972.
You haven't bathed since 1969.
You borrow your wife's headbands.
You own a VW minibus with a peace sign on the side and a Woodstock bumper sticker.

2. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity.

Oops, can't do that either. Congratulations you've left no stone unturned, OUTSTANDING!!!
I particularly like the pay stub one. That really hit home.
carry on soldier I see stars in your future If you believe in freedom and liberty without military intervention.
If you believe in clean air without toxic exhaust fumes.
If you believe in the US CONSTITUTION and the effective working of the Govt.
If you believe in helping the poor.
If you believe in feeding the hungry.
If you believe in Peace.
If you believe in truth and justice. Well put Trish! I couldn't help but laugh at some of the left wingers who followed up with absolute craziness. They won't be happy until we pay 50% of our income to taxes so that lazy people won't have to work, will get free health care, monster welfare checks, free housing, and enough money to support their 9 children. Hey libs...hard work and prosperity were what this principles this country were built on, not welfare checks and laziness! You have no clue that lowering tax rates can raise revenues (even though the evidence is staring you in the face) and that cutting SPENDING is how to rid yourself of deficits. Is this a question.No! its an attack.I think you should try not to look at things from only one side.Pres Clinton was wrong to bomb the Suddan in an attempt to divert attention from the Monica scandal & so is Pres Bush when he played on our fears & lied us into the Iraq war. You forgot "We should let the illegals stay here because we need the workers and they are good people" If you've ever pretended you were the president and represented your country in an enemy state even though you had no authority to do so, and proclaimed it was the only path to peace in the Middle East. If you have a graduate degree for a University of a decent reputation...or all your teeth or know how to hit the spell check button or never slept with a family member or embrace liberties and freedoms or never sold out my country to make a buck OK, Foxworthy. Try these on for size:
You balance out your hedonism with trying to help others who are worse off than you, through no real fault of their own.
You realize that most folks are only a couple paychecks and an illness away from living in a homeless shelter.
You do what you can to ease your impact on the earth, like use energy-efficient lighting, HVAC, recycling, gas-efficient transportation, alternative transportation, conserve water.
You see the hypocrisy between being both anti-abortion and anti-teen contraception.
You don't get overly concerned about your neighbors' personal lives; ie sexual preferences.
You know that the ACLU protects the rights of Republicans, too...as in internet privacy.
You realize that one CAN'T legislate morality.
Your outraged at the fact that Reps think it's "good business practice" to oursource American jobs, but wrong to want lower priced meds from Canada. Let me guess, you are NOT in Iraq, copy/pasted this off Fox News' web site and shop at Walmart while objecting to "illegal aliens" CRAP!!! I told you to stay away from the motrin, you. STAW AWAY!!!
cough cough***crackhead***cough cough You forgot -
You would defend to the death the right of Conservatives to attack you with "humorous" drivel because you still believe in the First Amendment. You should add "if you have a short attention span" because your post is just way to freaking long...I honesty tried to read it to come up with some smart comback, but I got bored. You might be a conservative if you copy and past a whole page worth of information and still can't come up with an intelligent question. You might be a liberal if you are intelligent enough to tell fact from fiction, can think for yourself and don't need Rush Limbaugh to think for you. . You might be a conservative if you insist on constantly lying through your teeth about liberals. you might be a con if...............
you preach but not practice what you preach
when 20 of your employees live in the same house and go by the name maria,,Jose and Lupe
you wear your white hood and burn a cross
you believe equal rights are only good enough for those of you in the same party
you still think bush is doing a good job
you think the freedom of speech has worn out it's welcome in our constitution
the number one reason you might be a conservative is that your head is stuck so far up you asssss that you could never see the way things truly are because the view is so so so nice |
