Straight Line of the Day: What Do You Call a Group of Liberals?
Works like this: I feed you Moon Nukers a straight line, and you hit me with a punch line in the comments.
TechnoChitlins [High Praise!] says:
Why Are There So Many Bizarre Names For A Collection Of Animals?
Many of the terms are conspicuously cute like a cowardice of curs or a murder of crows. Others sound cuter than they are meant to be; a school of fish is a corruption of shoal of fish, which is an appropriate image. Some others: A hover of trout, a husk of hares, a labor of moles, an unkindness of ravens, a murmuration of starlings, a knot of toads, a gang of elk, a fall of woodcocks, a rafter of turkeys, a kindle of kittens, a pitying of woodcocks, a crash of rhinos, a congregation of plovers, and a bevy of roebucks.
What do you call a group of liberals?

Pretty sure it’s still a “ravaging horde” of liberals. They sacked Europe a few times in the last millennium or two and now they’re sacking the US. Techniques may have changed, but pillage is still the end result.

Rodney Dill, while I appreciate that your idea of calling them wombats involves an acronym, I think that if you did so wombats might sue for defamation of character.
As to what I would call a group of liberals ( in mixed company anyway):
A Confusion

A Tantrum
A Soviet
An Oppression
A Hypocratic Oaf

There are only three names for groups of anything.
Small Group = Squad. Ex. I took my squad of dogs out for a walk.
Medium Group = Swarm. Ex. Get out of the way of that swarm of moose.
Large Group = Rampaging Horde. Ex. I ate a rampaging horde of bacon for breakfast.
Liberals being neither man nor beast are given a different set of names for groups.
Small group of liberals is called a nuisance.
A medium sized group of liberals is called a migraine.
A large group of liberals is called a government.
