ZOT: How to Tell a Democrat from a Republican During the Holiday Season

Right-Wing Republicans favorite Christmas movie is "Diehard".

Yeah!

Republicans favorite Christmas song is " White Christmas." Young Republicans favorite Christmas song is "White Christmas".

Or AC/DC's "Mistress for Christmas"

Democratic men like to watch football while their wives, girlfriends or mothers fix holiday meals.

Democrat men hate football and want to ban it since it's 'unsafe'. They prefer the ice capades......

I don't have it yet but the new A Christmas Story DVD (2 disc) reportedly has a documentary on the Leg Lamp...

"Lamps Got LEGS!!!"

I'm curious as to why this thread hasn't been moved to chat seeing as how news articles on celebrity scandals and vanities about other websites are constantly being moved there.

This isn't directed to whoever sits at the admin desk in particular, I just recall that in the past week or so a lot of threads got moved to moose and cheese land. Some of those news articles were later reposted by people who did not know of the chat threads.

I have not tested the retooled FR to see if News and General interest matches will now appear in a Search. Time was that a search in News would not find a "moose and cheese" General thread. Some well intentioned people would see this as a clear shot to posting a "non-duplicate" thread.

This is our daily troll. I moved it to chat.

Thanks. I knew who it was (and I think he played this same game last year using Christmas sounding user names). I understand the reason for moving some threads (Jim and the moderators have been good about re-emphasizing the main area of news for FR).

This clearly was chat (and not even locally posted since it was a troll).

I'd like to make one request for the next time changes are implemented in FR. When a thread is moved from News to General, the keywords field clears out.

I'd also like to see a way to search by keyword. Right now this can be accomplished by clicking on a keyword and then editing the URL line at the top of a webbrowser. Maybe there is already a way to do this and I just don't know about it.

Thanks again.

You really must be one sorry SOB that you enjoy being banned like this.
If your life is in this desperate a need for validation, I suggest therapy for your pathetic existence.
But for therapy to work, you must first acknowledge that you have a problem to begin with.
With your obviously limited mental faculties, this is impossible.
So I'm afraid you are doomed to imbecility for the rest of your life.

[weegee]

He's been doing this every year (and every day) during Christmas. What a waste...

[Darksheare]

Kinda figured it was the same guy.
It just was way too dejavu like to be anyone else.

"Republicans first began thinking like Republicans when they stopped believing in Santa Claus...

"Democrats became Democrats because they never stopped believing in Santa Claus..."

Now hold on a frozen minute! A former Democrat myself, as well as a believer in the Right Jolly Old Elf, it is in part because God blessed me with sufficient imagination and the ability to dream that I instead chose the Republican Party as the best overall representative of my political philosophies.

Democrats are more likely the ones to pull Santa's beard and take your toys to give to others on Santa's naughty list, and then call you heartless and cruel.
