Liberalism is Communism one drink at a time. - P.J. O'Rourke


If only it was even as good as that

Liberalism is more imprisoning than communism ever thought of being while
hiding under the fake facade of true freedom.....

Its much better when poision is labeled poison, tastes like poison, and
everyone knows its poison.....rather than thinking and being told its free
jelly doughnuts instead....


People still buy cigarettes.... How can anyone possibly explain why vast
numbers of people will continue to buy something that burns their mouths and
lungs, makes the eyes sting, smells bad, makes food taste bad, is likely to
burn themselves, their friends, and their possessions, and is deadly
poisonous to boot, and even claim that they 'enjoy' it? Perhaps liberalism
is to politics what tobacco is to recreation.

Maybe JFK was right after all, when he claimed that he was a jelly doughnut.

Okay, I was gonna stay out of this, but since people are comparing
liberalism to poison, cigarettes and other cancerous substances, it may be
time to remind everyone that our country was founded on some quite liberal
principles. Thomas Jefferson would likely be appalled to hear liberalism
likened to "poison".

C'mon folks, one of the reasons our country is so divided is rhetoric such
as this. Turn off Sean Hannity's rants for 10 seconds and get yourselves
together. Sheesh.
