"Don't Sweat the Ebola, Folks, I Don't," Obama Says

"President" Obama defended his untenable position against a travel ban on West Africa, the Ebola vacation spot of the world. He is urging Americans to resist Ebola 'hysteria' and not worry about catching this deadly virus. So far only 4500 people have died in West Africa from the virus, so Obama isn't restricting flights from that part of the world.

Barack smiled at the cameras and reassured us: "I'm not in the least bit worried that I'll catch Ebola, and I even have a name that rhymes with it." Of course he doesn't come in close contact with the public and flies in the Presidential Jet and helicopter. He carries a card in his wallet of Alfred E. Neuman that says, "What, me worry?"

4 Ways to Tell a Conservative from a Leftist

America was once called "the melting pot," because it became home to people from all over the world. They "melted" into the culture that was America and were proud to be known as Americans. Today, America is less of a melting pot and more of a smoke some pot, kind of nation. We are divided mainly by two philosophically opposed poles, conservatives and leftists.

Sometimes it isn't obvious as to which pole a person positions him or herself, but hopefully the information below will help sort it out for you.

1. American exceptionalism: President Obama told the world in a Tele Prompter speech that America is exceptional just like countries in Europe are exceptional. No more, no less. 

Conservatives believe that America is exceptional and goes above and beyond any other country in the world. It is not egotistical banter, nor is it simply bragging, because it`s true--at least conservatives believe so.


Leftists don`t believe America is exceptional in a good way--they see America as a nation of bullies who staunchly believe in a 200 year old document that has outlived its usefulness, the US Constitution. They believe the president has the power to override the Constitution at those times when a leftist president is in office. 

Insofar as other countries are concerned, leftists believe that we are no better than Russia, Iran, Afghanistan, or China. In order for us to peacefully coexist with these nations, we must have an open and honest dialogue, shake hands, and show cooperation. Leftists believe that if we could just all sit around a camp fire, belt out a round of Kumbayah, and roast marshmallows, the world would get along. They even have the feelings to prove it.

2. Military: Conservatives believe that "God made man, but Samuel Colt made them equal." They believe in a strong military as a deterrent to tyrants like Vladimir Putin, Hitler and Ed Schultz. (More on him later.) 

Conservatives worry that Obama's military cuts will weaken our national strength and make us look weak to the Putins and Hitlers of the world, while being just right for the Ed Schultz's. 

Bullies are usually afraid of real strength, and this goes for our enemies. 

Leftists, on the other hand, believe the military is populated by knuckle-dragging cretins. They wince when conservatives call soldiers and marines returning from Afghanistan, "heroes." To leftists, the real heroes are basketball players and media darlings who come out of the closet and admit they're gay. How brave to be seen by the left as "cool." 

3. Power: Conservatives make no secret that they want the GOP in power, and some would like to see the Tea Party rise to power and reduce the federal government. In order to win elections, the party members hand out fliers, knock on doors, and air TV ads.

Leftists do the same, but they take it a step farther. Not only do they run TV ads, hand out fliers, and visit houses, they go to cemeteries and visit graves where some of the best registered voters' remain remain. (Try using "remain" in tandem like that, eh.)

Conservative principals are dictated by the successes from the past and some go as far back as the Founding Fathers and the aforementioned Constitution.

Leftists principals are dictated by emotional processes that go back to what the media tells them it should be, and to unproven beliefs that often fly in the face of facts.

Where a conservative might say: "I may not believe in what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it;" a leftist might say: "I do not agree with what you say, but will work tirelessly to get you fired for saying it."

4. Income equality: Conservatives believe that income should be performance-based. A fully competent person working at a company for 10 years is more valuable to the company than a fully competent person working for the same company in the same position for ten days. Now if that newbie turns out to be more valuable to the company for whatever reason, the free market will dictate to the company (without even really dictating) that he or she should be compensated more than someone with less value.

Leftists want to see everyone making the same income for the same job, regardless of intrinsic value to the company. It's the "everyone gets a trophy" attitude, and it's putting a pin in the balloon of ambition and drive.

The reason leftists believe this way is because honest competition scares the crap out of them. Rarely are they the ones who came in first in suicide dodge-ball or soccer. If they lose at something, they define themselves as losers. 

Conservatives have less fear of competition. They know how it has driven America to be first to the moon, for example. They know how hard work pays off. 

Leftists know how hard work is.

Taking a Stand on Peeing and More

First the left wants to tell us how to grow our food, who can grow it, and how it should be shipped to us.  Next they tell us which of these foods is healthy and therefore, what foods are allowed and prohibited from being consumed.  Now the left is telling us how to properly eliminate the food from our body.


Michael Bloomberg?
This is not a joke, but it sounds too incredible to be believed, except that it's true.  In Sweden, the Sormland County Council, led by Viggo-I-Pee-Like-My-Sister-Olga-Hansen, a member of the Left Party (a.k.a. the Vansterpartiet Party, a Communist/Socialist party), has proposed a law that would make it illegal for men to relieve their bladder while standing and peeing.  They want men to sit while performing this act, to prevent them from sprinkling while tinkling. Hansen told a TV reporter, another man with a long Swedish name, "I want to give men the option of going into a clean toilet."  One can only hope the Left Party ends up there as well.


Closer to home, we have New York City's Mayor, Michael-I-May-Allow-Myself-A-Third-Term-Bloomberg, banning sugared soft drinks of 16 ounces or larger from being served in fast food restaurants and other public places who serve such dangerous poison.  In Cambridge, Massachusetts they are considering following Bloomies lead.  Ostensibly, this is to prevent obesity, but in Bloomberg's case, how can he justify that when he celebrated Doughnut Week at the same time?  If that isn't hypocrisy, then I'm Hippocrates.  If things fall into place as I suspect they might, Bloomberg will follow Viggo's lead and have all soft drinks eliminated in the sitting position.  What's next, the banning of ice cream, large pizzas, fries, and bacon (which will cause a Canadian revolution, I suspect).


If the Left can get men to pee like women, that will put us all on equal footing (or in this case, sitting), with women.  It will continue to blur the differences between the sexes, and phrases like "Viva la difference," will also become illegal. 


But the real reason the Left wants to pass laws that tell us what we can eat and how to pee, isn't for health reasons; it's for control and power.  If you can tell people how to pee, you've taken a parental role and they become the child--check out the psychological theory of transactional analysis--and you can eventually get the public to jump through hoops while you continue to pursue your impossible dreams of creating Utopia.  


"When standing and peeing is outlawed, only outlaws will pee standing up--an hour after drinking a Big Gulp with their bacon pizzas."
