short history lesson

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 B-B-Q 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 B-B-Q's and doing the sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. 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 jack---.

Modern liberals have grown to dislike beer, but 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.......

You know who you remind me a little of bit? Stephen Colbert. You have very similar assessments of political structure. I like it!

haha youve got some strong arguments there. i gotta say tho, i am honestly more liberal than i am conservative. sure i dont believe one bit in abortion, but i do agree with other views they have. im honestly kinda split between the two, but i lean more towards the liberal part. mainly because a lot of liberals, or at least the ones that i know, are very concerned about the welfare of others. many go to shelters to feed and help the homeless and actually care about the welfare of others while many conservatives simply walk by and tell them to get a job (in a lot of cases, its really not as easy for them to do that as it may sound).

plus, ive noticed that Jesus had many views that were more liberal than conservative, such as loving your neighbor (even if it is your enemy or a homeless bum). This one thing is one of the TWO things that Jesus labeled most important (the other was loving God). i honestly dont see a lot of conservative Christians go out of their way to do things like that. to be honest, a lot of them are fake and extremely judgmental (tho not all of them are so i dont mean to offend). liberal Christians that i know seem to be a lot more caring, but who knows it could just be the people out here; obviously i havent met everyone in the world yet. some of your views do hold true, but there are some liberals out there that are doing some good for this world. just something to think about... (sorry i had to post two comments)
