Are You an American Liberal?
If you have paid any attention at all to politics over the last couple of decades, you know that Republican politicians have spent an entire generation attacking liberals. However, unless you were paying close attention, you probably did not notice that those Republican politicians never bothered to actually define what a liberal is. They just attacked liberals, confident that the American people would follow along with their rhetorical sleight of hand, and not ask the question: "What is a liberal, anyway, and how come you spend so much time attacking them?"
Now, with the Republican Party in control of all three branches of the federal government, Americans are realizing how destructive the right wing Republican agenda is. So, Americans are beginning to question the partisan propaganda that has come from Republican politicians and their insider army of right wing political consultants. Americans are finally starting to ask themselves, "Am I one of those liberals that the Republicans keep talking about?"
Are you? Could you be an American liberal? The chances are pretty good that you are. After all, the Republicans say that everyone who doesn't agree with their radical right wing agenda is a liberal. But, it's best to be sure, so we have assembled the following list of questions so that you can test yourself to see if you really are an American liberal.

Sounds like you are suffering from ACD (Ann Coulter Disease.) Aside from delusions of grandeur, the major symptom is unbridled stupidity coupled with an inability to understand facts. A truly terrible malady and a ghastly sight to behold. Pity.

somebody ideas washed you dude. What the hell is incorrect with being a liberal? what's wring with not being judgemental and narrow minded thinking human beings ought to in basic terms stay the way you think of they might desire to stay? i've got faith if a woman needs an abortion, she ought to be able to get one. If it rather is pleased along with her then that's somewhat all that concerns. If 2 adult men desire to get married, what's it going to break? i'm not gay yet 2 adult men getting married won't be the top of the international. Bush is making an attempt to push his non secular values off on the towelheads and why? they suspect what they're doing is as superb suited as what Bush believes what he's doing is optimal. i would not walk around the line to fulfill Bush yet he's entitled to his comments and ideals. in basic terms hardship with that's he's killing many human beings interior the approach. i'm a liberal, very liberal and pleased with it.

You've neglected to mention Reaganomics Tax Disease (RTD).
The newly discovered illness only affects Republicans and makes one believe that lowering taxes will fix all of America's problems.

If you're such a good republican, why aren't you in Iraq fighting instead of being home with Mommy & Daddy bugging us? It's because you're a Neo-Coward, like george bush. You can sure talk tough, but you're too much of a coward to do anything more than talk!

There are three kinds of dangerous liberals.
1. Those in Congress
2. ACLU members
3. "Poll"iticians. That's people who govern by polls. It's a disease sometimes called Bubba's syndrome. It causes you to point in whichever way the polls are blowing.
It's highly contagious, especially to a spouse. Here are the two most contagious carriers.

very funny.
the sad reality is that if a man had an abusive father as a child, he is more likely to be conservative when he grows up. and that's the real mental disorder.
(of course, conservatives are more likely to abuse their children and wives. hmmmm, more evidence of that disorder....)
