Speaking of liberals, not the liberal party type but the
liberal/socialists discussed here reminds of this history lesson.

Author Unknown? ---

For those that don't know about history...... here is a condensed
version.

Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic
hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer
and would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.

The two most important events in all of history were:
1. The invention of beer, and
2. The invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the
beer.

These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were the
catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:
1. Liberals
2 Conservatives.

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning
of agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented
yet, so while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to
be invented, they just stayed close to the brewery. That's how villages
were formed.

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to barbeque at
night while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is
known as the Conservative movement.

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live
off the conservatives by showing up for the nightly barbeques and doing
the sewing, fetching, and hairdressing. This was the beginning of the
Liberal movement.

Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. The rest became
known as girlie-men.

Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the domestication of Cats,
the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the concept of
Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that
conservatives provided.

Over the years Conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most
powerful land animal on earth, the elephant. Liberals are symbolized by
the jackass.

Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer
white wine or imported bottled water. They eat raw fish but like their
beef well done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare.

Another interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have
higher testosterone levels than their men Most social workers, personal
injury attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group
therapists are liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule
because it wasn't fair to make the pitcher also bat.

Conservatives drink domestic beer. They eat red meat and still provide
for their women. Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys,
lumberjacks, construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police
officers, corporate executives, athletes, Marines, and generally anyone
who works productively. Conservatives who own companies hire other
conservatives who want to work for a living.

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers
And decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans
are more enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals
remained in Europe when conservatives were coming to America . They
crept in after the Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying
to get more for nothing.

Here ends today's lesson in world history...

It should be noted that a Liberal may have a momentary urge to angrily
respond to the above before forwarding it.

A Conservative will simply laugh and be so convinced of the absolute
truth of this history that it will be forwarded immediately to other
true believers and to more liberals just to piss them off

This pretty much sums it up. This is the world I believe we live in!

Have fun!

I had a good laugh at RawMustard's nonsensical 'world history' and thought to leave it at that.
But then, in the same spirit, I would point out that general Pinochet was a Conservative, Hitler was a Conservative, the Argentinian generals were conservatives. stalin was a conservative. Mussolini was a conservative.
Conservatives Started a stupid war in Iraq, and a stupid war in Afghanistan.
History teaches us an important lesson about Conservatives, and it's this.
Conservatives create wars, not Liberals.
And for that alone, conservatives stand condemned by their brutal and bloody history.

RawMustard,

"Liberals believe Europeans are more enlightened than Americans."

Surely not!

Shame the tamers of the Wild West are now sitting on their butts eating chili dogs and watching Fox News.

Here's a lively commentary from a guy from "down home" America, except he saw through the bullsh....

And it was stoopid liberals that joined their armies for a share of the barbeque scraps!

As Einstein once said: Those that will march in rank file deserve not a brain, for a spine would suffice!

I would presume then that your liberals had neither!

I'm sorry, RawMustard but your lack of logic betrays you.
Because conservatives start wars and liberals have to get involved to sort out the mess, you say it is therefore all the fault of the liberals.
You sir, are a perfect example of those who put ideology ahead of rational thought.
Your failed consevative ideology blinds you to historical and moral reality.
And on that petard, you are thoroughly hoisted.
You might consider reading Emmanual Kant on moral philosophy.
