How To Tell If You Are A Leftie, vol 3

A continuation of a primer designed for those who are clueless to the fact that their opinions are not quite in synch with reality.

If you think the only wars in which America should become involved are those in which our national security is not at risk, you are a leftie.

Who is responsible for someone’s criminal actions? Who is responsible for their health care? Their welfare and safety? Raising their children? Making sure they put enough away for their retirement? If your answer to any of the preceding was, “the government,” congratulations on your leftie graduation.

If you believe businesses create oppression but government creates prosperity, you are a leftie.

If you think that the AFL-CIO, AARP, NEA, and other large unions actually represent the beliefs and views of the members who pay the dues (and the extremely extravagant salaries of the upper management), you are a myopic leftie.

If you think taxes are too low but ATM fees are too high, you are a leftie.

If you still insist on harping on the 2000 election, forgoing every single conclusion by every single media outlet that conducted their own independent counts, and you still whip out the tired “stolen election” mantra, you are a leftie. If you claim election fraud when the Supreme Court tells a state supreme court they overstepped their bounds by trying to shape an election by only allowing recounts in certain counties, but you see nothing nefarious when a Democrat squeaks out a win in Pennsylvania only because Philadelphia miraculously gets 100% of the registered voters to vote, or you see nothing wrong when it’s reported that Democrats in Milwaukee pick up seniors, drive them to the polls, and pay them to vote, you are a sad leftie.

If you think the candidate’s wife should change her name during a campaign, then change it back after the election, you are a Rodham Heinz leftie.
