Is Santa a Republican or a Democrat?
Washington Post via MSN ^ | 12/23/14

**SNIP**

Paul Begala, Democratic media consultant

Santa is definitely a Democrat. Rather than cater to the wealthiest one percent he rewards people who work hard and play by the rules. And while he's not a participant in the first lady's anti-obesity campaign he's very concerned about climate change. After all, Rudolph can fly but he can't swim.

**SNIP**

Billy Moore, Democratic lobbyist

My sister Kiki suggests he is a Democrat: "He cares about all the children, rich or poor. He cares about the elf's as workers and he believes there is good in the world to be celebrated not just evil to defend against. He believes in holding the naughty accountable. Ultimately he knows is role is important for the future."

Republican... out of shape, obsessed with red, employees required to work day and night, addicted to coal.

Kinda sounds like Jim has to wash out his stockings every year.

He’s Tea Party. He gets things done that help people, not enslave them to government.

(song from college days)

Santa Claud has a red suit - he’s a Communist...
Santa Claud has a big white beard - he’s a pacifist...
Santa Claus has free gifts - he’s a Socialist...
Santa Claus sees no borders - he’s an anarchist...

Definitely conservative. He believes in and practices individual charity. Liberals do not.

If Santa was a Democrat he would work for the government and spend all year looting houses to pay for his unionized elf force.

Not sure about Santa, but when people observe that the Left has to make everything about politics...this is exhibit A. It’s like a form of obsessive compulsive disorder with them.

And even if it turns out Santa is a Republican, like they have ever turned down free stuff in their lives? Right.

Are potatoes a kind of fish, or a type of poultry?

Does Santa pay the elves a living wage?

I don’t know what party Santa belongs to, but SATAN is most definitely a Democrat.

Merry Christmas!

Republican. The Bishop upon whom “Santa Claus” is based paid for everything he gave out of his own pocket and didn’t charge his generosity to the taxpayers.

yeah, that makes about as much sense......but if I had to answer, I’d say the free market Santa was Republican, and the gummint appointed santa was a Dem....

Unpaid elves that make cheap toys.

No independent sources of revenue.

Red suit.

Trophy wife.

Lives in a tax shelter.

Works on day a year.

Expects free food after breaking into your home.

Violates airspace of numerous nations.

Santa definitely has some explaining to do.

The fact that Santa actually has moral standards and differentiates between bad and good supports your theory.

I’ve got a whiney Liberal (OK redundant) friend, who attacks conservatives and Republicans every chance he can. So we got into a discussion once (If there is such a thing as a “discussion” with a liberal) and I made the comment “that if conservatives were so bad, why doesn’t he hate Santa Claus?”

His response is what I always expect right away from him, until he can think about something for awhile, “F**K You”. So then he asked me how I knew that Santa was a conservative. I thought I’d share some of my thoughts.

1-Santa waits till everyones asleep and no ones around, to see him do his good deeds. If he were a liberal, he’d do it in broad daylight, hold a press conference, and wait for the tv and camera crews.

2-Santa gives toys and candy out using HIS OWN money and hard work. Libs would beg or steal from others, or expect subsidies, and then draw attention to themselves of how good and caring they are.

3-IF Santa WERE a liberal, he wouldn’t fly around on a cold drafty sleigh, pulled by reigndeer, he’d be kickin it in a Gulfstream G5 (With a save the reigndeer sticker on it)

4-When you go to the mall and see Santa there, what does he do? He asks the boys and girls what they want for Christmas. Then he LISTENS. Liberals never listen. They just talk, talk, talk and talk some more.(Look at Barrack Obama, perfect example)

5-Santa hires elves. Liberals would never ACTUALLY hire a physically disadvantaged (unless it was a token employment) they just use disadvantaged for speeches and photo ops.

6-Santa believes in right and wrong. Todays Libs feel that the idea of right and wrong are quaint and outdated. They feel right and wrong, good and bad are all relative.

7-Santa gives to others from a sacrificial and giving heart, out of LOVE for others. Liberals believe everyone is ENTITLED to something.

8-Santa gives without expecting or demanding anything in return. When was the last time you saw a Liberal do anything, without expecting or demanding anything in return?

Is Santa a Republican or a Democrat?

Is this a stupid question or a really stupid question?

If he is a philanthropic private citizen then he is a Republican....If he is a government worker in charge of good will toward men then he is just another Democrat welfare worker.
