If we were all in stasis, why would we need a leader? See. That’s the trouble with all you big liberals. No logic.

Thank you for this outstanding take on pure, unadulterated, exuberant political satire!

You caught me! If you notice, “TheBigLiberal” also posts asking for donations to FR. So clearly, this is from one of our own. It sucked me in!! I should donate solely for the clever tactic!

Satire Right!?

It seems.

By definition, satire would include the element of exaggeration to illustrate absurdity for the sake of humor or ridicule. Unfortunately, I know whacky leftist folks who would emphatically agree with this proposal.

Why? Satire no longer sanctioned?

Jonathan Swift wrote the original “A Modest Proposal”. This latest one is of that ilk.

Okay, I was going to tell you to die, but.... it's clear you are serving a heaping helping of satire.

Admin, don't ban this one. If he's for real (I doubt) it's funnier than MurryMom... if he's not, this could be great!

Dude, you came to the wrong house.

Your ignorant rant and rhetoric, no doubt, plays well at Daily Kos and DU, but you have come to OUR house with your silly ignorance.

Now, had you come wanting to learn or understand more about conservatives and conservatism, a number of us would have been happy to help you understand those concepts. However, you are so eaten up with liberal ignorance, there’s no place to start.

But, I’ll leave you with this. If you don’t want to be “slave” (as you put it) to rich people, why would you prefer to be a “slave” to big government? Don’t spend too much time trying to noodle that one out, you simply can’t understand it.

Conservatives think that freedom is more important than safety, but what good is freedom if you're dead? Freedom is just a made-up word that conservatives use to justify the dangerous world they live in. There is no logic behind freedom, all freedom does is increase the chance that someone could be hurt. The world is a dangerous place, and it's our job to band together and make it safe!

It boggles my mind that ANY human being, but especially someone who was raised in America, can actually think this.

My God, you're such an unfathomably, incomprehensibly stupid person. I would pity you if you weren't so dangerous to the rest of us.
