Before I post this, let me say that I am politically neutral, so I'm not necessarily agreeing or disagreeing with this list, I simply found it amusing:

  1. If a conservative doesn't like guns, he doesn't buy one. If a liberal doesn't like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.
  2. 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.
  3. If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy. If a liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.
  4. If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life. If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.
  5. If a person of color is conservative, they see themselves as independently successful. Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.
  6. If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
  7. If a conservative doesn't like a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don't like be shut down.
  8. If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn't go to church. A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced. (Unless it's a foreign religion, of course!)
  9. If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.

On the topic of Fox News vs CNN/MSNBC/etc...: All media outlets are biased. There is no such thing as impartial news. The sooner everyone comes to grips with that, the sooner you can get back to arguing more interesting topics.

The only other thing I want to add is that I have noticed over the years a hypocritical trend among many (not all) liberals.  There is a prevailing attitude that basically says "You have to accept my beliefs whether you want to or not. If I disagree with you, I'm being progressive. But if you disagree with me, you're a bigot." Just because you disagree with someone doesn't mean you can disrespect them.  If you expect people to accept your beliefs and feelings, you have to respect their right to have their own. If everyone lived by that one simple fact, the world would be a somewhat better place. I'm sure there's an equally hypocritical trend among conservatives, I just have not witnessed it.


i couldnt agree more.

and about the fox news thing. i never said (or at least didnt mean to) say FOX was non biased. its just they actually provides points of views with people having biases across the politcial spectrum. so it tends to balance out. they have people with conservative bias, liberatarian bias, statist/progressive bias, liberal bias, so on.

and your other points or spot on. they call for people like glenn beck be kicked off the air. when a conservative speeker goes to a university they need securuty, sometime they get cancled because of protests and riots, the students throw things at the speeker. and you better have an armored detail security force if you are a black man speaking out against affirmative action.

also so called womens rights groups or feminists groups, arent not at all that. they clearly are just progresive democrats that dont give a rats ass about conservative women being descriminated against. its because they dont support their liberal idealogy.

liberals speek of themselves as being open minded, but God forbid you disagree with them. they will want you shut down censored, put in jail act. they are only "open minded" to people with like views
