Conservatives vs. Liberals
Okay maybe this isn’t perfectly accurate but ya gotta admit… there’s are a few things that are pretty close here…
If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn’t buy one. If a liberal doesn’t like guns, he wants all guns outlawed.
If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn’t eat meat. If a liberal is a vegetarian, he wants all meat products banned for everyone.
If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life. If a liberal is homosexual, he demands legislated respect.
If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation. A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
If a conservative doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels. Liberals demand that those they don’t like be shut down.
If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church. A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God and religion silenced.
(Unless it’s a foreign religion, of course!)
If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it. A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.
If a conservative reads this, he’ll forward it so his friends can have a good laugh. A liberal will delete it because he’s “offended”.

Haha!
I’d add a few of my faves:
A conservative will rant and rave about how much he hates the government, and therefore will seek to make it smaller, have only the powers granted to it in the constitution, and demand it take less money/freedom away from the citizens… even when ‘the guys we like’ have less power as well.
A liberal will rant and rave about how much he hates the government because it’s in bed with big business, and therefore will seek to make it much bigger, have vast, overreaching power never granted to it in the constitution, and demand it take more money/freedom away from the citizens… even when ‘the guys we hate’ will eventually wield that same power.
A conservative believes in equal opportunity for everyone.
A liberal believes in equal outcome for everyone.
Some of the best political cartoons of all time:

Nice! You should see the hoopla this created over on Facebook! What’s funny is that them getting all offended pretty much proved the post!
Heh, well I wouldn’t exactly expect to find much on Facebook deeper than “Duuude did you see who wuz on Idol last nite??!!”
You guys are right on the money!!!! N.J., N.Y. CA. (to name a few) are grossly over taxed, over regulated and are being run into the ground, especially CA. The Feds. are now not only following CA., but taking it to a whole new level of government control, taxation and loss of liberty! Keep an eye on your freedom boys and girls!!!
Preach it Prof J!
Awesome. So now we know the difference between the two, can they work together now? All both sides do is yell out how the other sides suck. That’s why divorces cost so much money cause everyone’s out to hire everyone else to prove that the other side is wrong, who gets screwed in the end? The children that pretty much have nothing to do with it.
