You know, the conservatives think the media game is unfairly tilted against them, so they justify getting their news from obviously biased sources like Fox because, in their mind, CNN is doing the exact same thing on the other end of the spectrum. So that's "fair and balanced" to them.<BR/><BR/>Funny how people who think the world is generally fair can whine and play the victim card when they think their ox is being gored. (How many metaphor/cliches did I mix in this post?)<BR/><BR/>As for Bush, do you think he could have held that manager job at a waterbed store for long? No way. Without his family name, he'd have a community college degree and a long string of unsatisfying jobs on his resume.PDizzlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01891902419224655012noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5109274274070580415.post-90442303792796220782007-08-02T06:45:00.000-06:002007-08-02T06:45:00.000-06:00Interesting stuff.I've always wondered why liberal...Interesting stuff.<BR/>I've always wondered why liberals will accept free drinks but grumble when it's their turn to step up to the bar. Drives me a little crazy about my liberal friends that they tend to be such cheapskates (maybe I'm more conservative than I know...) <BR/>Also, if I hear a liberal complain about his job ever again, I'll scream. They often are incessantly disgruntled about their job situation, the boss they don't respect, the idiots they can't stand to work with. Why is that? You don't hear true-blue conservatives complaining about such things that often... Hm.

And all we did was eat steak, drink wine and talk about what our old high school friends are up to. I tend to like the kind of conservative who picks up the tab for a few $24 glasses.<BR/><BR/>(by the way, we decided our nephew is comedy GOLD).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
