There are a lot of things liberals believe that they’re pretty well trained not to say. Like that they want a full government takeover of health care. Most liberals want that, but most — especially elected officials — know to keep that to themselves because it makes people angry. Still, these liberals don’t quite understand why these things they want make people angry, which is why they slip up quite often.
Joe Biden recently said, “If you call that a ‘redistribution of income’ — well, so be it. I don’t call it that. I call it just being fair — giving the middle class taxpayers an even break that the wealthy have been getting.” Now, liberals are pretty well-trained to avoid the “redistribute wealth” and similar phrases, but again they don’t understand why it’s a bad thing other than it makes people angry. As Biden says, and lots of liberals think, it’s just being fair. Why would people be against being fair?
Then we had Rep. Phil Hare stating how he doesn’t care about the Constitution if it gets in the way of helping sick people. The thing I find remarkable about that video is how hapless he look in that video. He thinks he’s saying something heroic — “I won’t let some silly document get in the way of me helping sick children!” All he’s doing is expressing an attitude that’s pretty pervasive among liberals (how many have taken the Constitutional question of Obamacare seriously and not just handwaved “the Commerce Clause covers that”?); why would people be angry about it?
That’s the thing with liberals: They’re not being mean-spirited or anything; they just don’t understand. They see all the anger out there and it just confuses them. It’s like when SarahK and I play Trivial Pursuit on the ground and then our dog comes over all happy to greet us and walks on the board and knocks all the pieces off. We yell at her, but she has no idea what she did wrong.
Which leads to this point: The solution to liberals — shock collars.
Frank J: capital idea.
The majority of liberals, from online trolls to small time politicans, don’t realize that the minority of liberals – the ones in power – are playing them like a violin.
It’d be humorous if it wasn’t so dangerous.
Shock collars may not be stronger enough. I think we need TAZERS!! Ooops, how violent of me. Wait, since I am a minority, I am finding it racists that the left think I am the white (a color not a race) since that is all Tea Party members are! No, stupid, it is about spending, the Constitution, the fact that Government is in my shower, toilet, water, clothes, shoes, food, car, house, LIGHT BULBS, they are every where! I see government and it everywhere!

What’s almost as amazing as the video of Congress critter Phil Haire, is the video of congress critter Johnson from GA telling the Marine Admiral that he was afraid if they sent more Marines to the island of Guam, he was afraid the island would tip over and capsize. If I had been the Admiral, I would have “horse laughed” the SOB. The Admiral held his composure very well…just paused for a minute, then told Johnson that he didn’t foresee that happening.
Just what kind of people have we,( collectively, not me personally), elected to represent us? Obviously some of us weren’t thinking too clearly.
They have a thing called a shock vest. It is used by bailiffs in courtrooms, because it hides under the clothes real well, and drops the defendant to the ground, if he gets rowdy. Funny thing, I haven’t heard of a single judge, no matter how liberal, who objected to them on the grounds of cruel and unusual. Might have something to do with who the 300 pound madman is charging.
Librals should sleep in the garage, and stay outside. There is also a big pile in the house that they need their noses rubbed in.
>an even break that the wealthy have been getting
Yeah. The reason the “wealthy” are wealthy is because of lucky breaks. It’s not that these people can deal with good AND bad happenings in their life better than the rest, who just whine; it’s just luck.
And these morons dare say that no socialist in the real world talk (or thinks) like those in Ayn Rand books.
#3, don’t taz me bro!
And here I thought you were sprouting a little compassion for our unknowing, uncomprehending liberal brethren.
Shock collar — HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA, says the owner of a rambunctious young black lab who also sports a shock collar from time to time to quieten down his barkey-malarkey. Hey — it’s pretty much the same thing! You’re right!
Yes Basil, I did see what you did there.
Frank, is being a baby-daddy softening you? I thought the solution to liberals was Genetically Altered Dinosaurs with Laser Eyeballs?
This is a GREAT idea. As I have said before I had a freind who ruff housed with a security guasd buddy at church and accidently took 20,000 from a stun gun the naughty bits. He NEVER ruff housed again. Here libbie libbie libbie….
And #9 Tim.. you got that right.
# 12 Knitterchick….Dick Cheney has hand on the button.
MY GUESS IS THAT THE STATE OF VIRGINIA HAS BEEN TRYING TO GET OFF SHORE DRILLING FOR YEARS. MAYBE WEBB AND WARNER GOT THIS IN RETRUN FOR THIER VOTE ON OBAMAMCARE?
Don’t shock me dude.
