    A liberal came upon a genie and said, "You're a genie. Can you grant me three wishes?" The genie replied, "Yes, but only if you're feeling generous enough to share your good fortune." The liberal said, "I'm a liberal. I'm always happy to share." The genie said, "O.K., then, whatever you wish for, I'll give every conservative in the country two of it. What's your first wish?" "I would like a new sports car." "O.K., you've got it, and every conservative in the country gets two sports cars. What's your second wish?" "I'd like a million dollars." "O.K., you get a million dollars, every conservative gets two million dollars. What's your third and final wish?" "Well, I've always wanted to donate a kidney."

    I like that line and I agree with it. The only problem is they're always willing to share what doesn't belong to them. :hihi:

    More government cheese...please!

    That reminded me of the definition of SOCIALISM quoted by a friend of mine:

    Socialism is taking things from one person and giving it to another.......umm....

    You can disagree all you want. That is your right. But I stand by my statement. But understand that when I speak of a news slant, I am talking about hard news programs such as Special Edition with Brent Humes and the Fox sunday news program with Chris Wallace. I am not talking about the Limbaughs and the O'Reillys. These are news editorialists, and an editoral is not supposed to be unbiased.
