Now you're starting to see the light. Any thoughts on what form the
psych testing should take?

For starters:

You can't be a liberal.
It's proof of poor judgment

I'm not sure that nationality and political persuasion are considered
psychoses, although the way people go on about politicians (and in
certain cases Canucks) one could have cause to wonder. Of course the
wondering may be more about the ranter than the rantee. I think we need
to take a more traditional approach to the psychological testing
criteria. Even that may well eliminate a lot of liberals. Heaven knows
most of them are headcases anyway.

No no no. You misunderstood what I said.

Liberals are the ones who fight to save the whales, the seals, the
pandas, the trees, the sharks and the farm animals. Furthermore,
Popeye's already offered loads of evidence, purportedly irrefutable,
that Canucks and liberals are too cowardly, haven't the cojones to
kill. All this would seem to qualify them for the right to drive, if
vehicular mayhem is the main concern.

Conservatives, on the other hand, being the ones willing and able to
stand up and kill as they see fit are the ones who should be carefully
scrutinized before allowing them a permit to drive.

Isn't there an elegant logic to all of this?

Every conservative here supports care for marine mammals.

> the seals . . .

Say what?  Seems to me it's the liberals in the group that think clubbing
them to death is fine or did you perhaps think that Scott, Popeye and I are
liberals?

> the pandas

They're communists.  Who gives a damn.

> the trees

Are trees endangered?

> the sharks

Wrong again, it was Mike, Bullshark and me that went to the shark feeding
meetings.

> the farm animals

Big deal.  Everybody tries to protect their loved ones.

No, I think it was Canuck liberals he was referring to.

Don't be so certain.  I've heard lots of manatee-eating jokes here.

I've never seen bullshark spout off much conservatism here.  Did he vote for
Bush & Bush?

More conservatives have sex with farm animals, that is true.  Cattle
ranching and sheepherding have always been conservative pursuits.  Liberals
farm organic vegetables and have their hands full keeping their women out of
the cucumber patch.

You've heard jokes about a lot of things.  Manatees are only endangered
because a bunch of liberal idiots, who haven't a clue about what is really
good or bad for manatees, insist on maintaining them on the list.  The
numbers have long since increased to the point where they are no longer
endangered.

Personally, I don't consider manatees to be marine mammals.  I know that
that's how they're classified, but I almost never see one in salt water and
only in coastal waters.  Their aquatic for sure, but marine seems like a
stretch to me.

The fact that he doesn't run at the mouth, uh, fingers, like the rest of us,
doesn't make him a liberal.  Of course I could be wrong.  Maybe he is a
liberal.  That's still two conservatives to one liberal.  The fact that
conservatives support conservation does not mean that there are no liberals
doing the same.

I haven't a clue who he voted for.  The question isn't a particularly good
one.  In my personal opinion, Bush got elected because Kerry is a completely
unacceptable alternative.  I've never voted for a Bush for anything, ever
before, but I voted for GW over Kerry.  Even with my very low opinion of
GW's performance since elected, I'd do it again.

You didn't hear that from me.  I conceded the point on farm animals.

> Cattle ranching and sheepherding have always been conservative pursuits.

That's true.  We raising them for food and clothing.  Somebody has to.  Just
like in other things, the liberals sit back and wait for someone else to do
it for them.  We do, however, try to protect them from non consentual sex
with liberals.  You have to draw the line somewhere.  Liberals sneaking into
the cow pasture is one of the reasons that most farmers have guns.

If you liberals can't keep your women happy without vegetables, us
conservatives will be glad to help.

"Care for marine animals" could just mean not overgrilling them.

 Incorrect as always, but at least you're consistent.

 As many times as you've denied it,

 I've told you that being a killer is in your basic nature.

 We already discussed this at length.

 It's one of the mindless, worthless mantras that you repeat.

Now you know why we call you all gun nuts.  It's not because you're nuts
about guns, it's because you all voted for Bush.

*Anyone* but a sack of sh.t like Kerry.

BTW, arent you going to address all the lies, accusations and millions of
dollars you all wasted on Haditha and the Plame/Wilson affair?

What's millions compared to hundreds of billions?
