...arguing with a liberal is like playing chess with a pigeon

THAT is the kind of "word picture" that I am looking for!

Thanks, DefeatCorruption!

Ideally, though, I want a metaphor that allows Jay Leno to save face.

Lefty or not, Jay Leno is not NEARLY as bad as David Letterman,
and Jay still tells some of the best "Obama" jokes!

If he is allowed to justify his attacks on Senator Cruz as being comparable to
the actions of Captain Picard, under the irresistible influence of the Borg - i.e., not his fault --
he may treat future conservative guests more fairly, in what little time that he has left on the air.

Arguing with a liberal is like chasing a roach around the kitchen counter.

Leno continually told ‘stupid Bush’ jokes. There was one of those quips in every monologue.

His Obama jokes are not about stupidity.

My idea is to tag the voters:

Did you hear about the Obama voter who locked his keys in his car?

He had to use a coat hanger to get his family out.
