A reader sent us this amusing — and possibly informative — little piece that is making the rounds these days. We’d credit the original source if we could find it. It goes like this:
If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one.
If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat.
If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.
If a conservative is down and out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
If a liberal is in economic difficulty, he wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels.
If a liberal doesn’t like a talk show host, he wants the show to be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church.
If a liberal is a non-believer, he wants any mention of God and religion silenced (unless it’s a foreign religion).
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he shops for it or gets a job that provides it.
If a liberal wants health care, he demands government and taxpayers provide it.
If a conservative reads this, he passes it on so his friends can have a good laugh.
If a liberal reads this, he will be offended.
Are you laughing — or offended?
