An upright turd and an upright sun-dried turd.

If you’re under 60 you’ve been forced to laugh at yourself all these years, as SNL and comedians force you to, and lefties can’t do that. If you can’t laugh at yourself you really can’t find anything else funny either.

Are they saying that McCain is a conservative?

In the eyes of the NYT.

[daniel1212]

I sometimes go up to the university just to see what is going on and it's fraught with left wing groups, trans everything multiculturalism, hate of Israel, serious paganism and satanism( including classes), false science( cliate change, evolution etc) , name it it's like the "hedges" in the Bible. Has to be worse than Sodom and Gomorrah. Has to be.

Which is the vision of the world many have.

I don't like off color either but like you I an a follower of The Way. Some i deal with but a person can make a clean joke sans the nasty words. Do love the wit, and everything I posted. I just love to laugh. Used to do a humor group in state hospitals, acute and prisons.

A teacher asked her students to use the word "beans" in a sentence. "My father grows beans," said one girl. "My mother cooks beans," said a boy. A third student spoke up, "We are all human beans."

I think you are performing too many mental gymnastics over an article that is over 10 years old...........

Well, again, I thought it would at least be of analytical interest, but which is symptomatic of a deeper cause than the article speculates.

So what DID happen when McCain and Obama walked into that bar?

Maybe the NYT thinks it was not funny, or PC, as it does not tell us.

[daniel1212]

Ten year old article but probably even more relevant today.

And can you see the NYT even running that article today?

The Left hasn’t the ability to laugh at itself...

Liberals are too busy hating

This is a perfect example of the difference between liberals and conservatives. The writer of this article wants to make some profound statement about liberals and conservatives. We all know he’s a lefty, hey he works for the NYSlimes. Read the comments in this thread. We conservatives care more about the punchline of the joke than any ‘profound’ insight the writer of this article has. I mean, he has the start of a great joke and he blew it by getting all serious on us!!!

The Left hasn’t the ability to laugh at itself...

Its hard core operatives are driven by lust for power as the enlightened elite who are angry at authority and benefits that was obtained by lawful merit, and neither the jealous or rapists are likely laugh at humorous roasting about themselves. I

Consider how fearful, threatened, touchy, angry, and reactionary the liberal college climate example itself to be.
