Why cats aren't Republican (BARF)
Messaging Matters in an email I received | October 25, 2014 | Liberal Idiots

Posted on 10/28/2014 2:49:35 PM PDT by Swordmaker

Living with a cat for the first time, you quickly pick up on its behavioral quirks, many of which are common among other cats. What you soon find out is that cats aren't Republican. Here are 12 reasons why not:

1. Cats are curious about what you do in your bedroom, but they don't try to legislate away your freedom to do it.

2. Cats may take away your cushion, but they'll give it back to you with a gentle push.

3. Cats give you attention and sympathy when you're sick.

4. Females are treated with importance in the cat world.

5. Cats make use of solar power, often all day long.

6. Cats lick their own problems and take care of other cats too.

7. Cats don't blame black and brown cats for their troubles.

8. Cats know how to ration their resources.

9. Fat cats are not at the top of the cat hierarchy, are not cat role models, and have more trouble surviving and thriving, not less.

10. While Republicans blindly follow authority, it is said that getting Democrats to act in unison is like herding cats.

11. Cats don't foul their own nest.

12. Cats are popular and well-liked on the Internet and elsewhere.

It's hard to know where to start with this misrepresentation of what Republicans believe or think. So many of these things are actually the behaviors of Liberals. Specifically:

#2— Taxation Anyone? Democrats will take away YOUR cushion and never give it back. they might give the filling, suitably soiled to someone else.

#3— Democrats will give you attention and sympathy only if you are sick with a politically correct disease, are not a Veteran, a Senior Citizen, or a Middle Class family member. AND, it will cost you more now than it used to.before they passed Obambicare without a single Republican vote,

#4— Show me one Democrat that is opposing Sharia law in Islamic countries. One.

#6— Uh, if they are the same sex, maybe. But they seem to be willing to let the rest of the world with their problems go to hell in a hand basket, and cause many of those problems, to boot.

#7— No, they just cause a lot of the problems for the Black and Brown cats., Republicans prefer not to notice there is any difference between Black, Brown, White, Black, Multi-colored cats, and just treat them all as equally cool cats.

#8— Democrats just make their resources off limits to everyone who desperately need them, while Republicans prefer to develop new ones.

#9— There are more Millionaire and Billionaire Democrats funding Liberal candidates than there are Such in the Republican party. And monied Hollywood is far to the Left.

10— Congressional Caucuses vote in lockstep. Republicans seldom vote do. . . and often Republicans break ranks to vote with the Liberals. RINO's anyone? Where are the DINOs?

#11— Every inner city controlled by Democrats and Detroit. Enough said.

Amazing, simply AMAZING that they could actually come these conclusions about the vary conservative cat species.

Democrats! Magic Thinking is their hallmark. A democrat/;iberal never confronts evil ‘cause there is always something else in their twisted mind to blame it on if they don’t like something that happened.

People who put political beliefs into their animals are delusional. And possibly psychotic.

How I know cat’s aren’t Democrats:
1. They aren’t involved in voter fraud.
2. A cat has never called me a racist to “win” an argument.
3. Cat’s don’t lie in order to take away my constitutional rights.
4. Cat’s don’t lie to increase the scope of our incompetent, arrogant and corrupt central government.

Sounds like it was written by someone who has never had a cat.

Look, it's simple, Cats have no loyalty they will swing to whoever has the best treat at the time. Cats are greedy and care only about themselves, that's why Cats will always be democats! On the other hand Dogs are fiercely loyal, have long memories and always think of what's best for the pack, that's why Dogs aren't and never will be democrats.

Makes just as much sense as the article — maybe more.

Ha. Dims are the biggest lemmings on the planet.

No no no. So wrong.

I love cats. I love very kind of cat. I just want to hug all of them — but I can’t hug every cat.

Sez you. Cats don't need hand outs. They can survive without you and me. A domestic dog would be dead in a week. My cat would be subject to a VAT because of added value. He provides a valuable service, in addition to being fun to hang around, in that he slays rodents and spiders, AND he serves as an invisible djinn/shadow person/ghost detector.

The dog is fun, too, and he at least barks when people/bears/coyotes/foxes come around for the chickens, but mostly it's like having a 5 year old child lacking in common sense (porcupines, rolling in piles of cow shit) that you have to constantly care for. He's like a dem.

Liberals, wanting people to stay away from their bedroom and their womb...but wanting everyone else to pay for their abortions and condoms.

Cats also aren’t very smart, so yeah, they’re probably Democrats.

Really? Do we really want to get into what cats get up to romantically?

10. While Republicans blindly follow authority, it is said that getting Democrats to act in unison is like herding cats.

Sure, back in Will Rogers' day. Democrats are a lot more lockstep lately.

Have we really forgotten who gave "herding cats" a Washington spin?

Dogs are republicans. They will help their masters find food. They will hunt with them. Cats are liberals. They expect to be fed and just meow when the bowl is empty.

Cats do nothing but sleep all day, crap behind furniture if they are tired of their box. Dogs will hold it until you take them outside.

A cat won’t drag you out of a burning house.
