I can't believe they'd make a character this conservative without always being lampooned and humiliated. I have never watched Parks and Recreation until just recently on Netflix. This guy is a hoot.

I’m gonna tell you everything you need to know about the screwed-up, miserable world of local government.

The government is a greedy piglet, and it suckles on the taxpayer’s teat until they have sore, chapped nipples.

Crushing the hope of government dreamers is its own reward.

This forum, like all public forums, is a waste of time.

What is a Ron Swanson?

And if this is a waste of time why do you inflict your time wasting on the rest of us?

He’s up there with the priest from the Catholic school in The Bernie Mac Show. Love that guy!

Yes, I just started watching the show.

At the end of the 2nd season, they shut down the Pawnee government, Swanson is overjoyed!

He cannot believe is involved in slashing the government!

By far. I can't believe NBC didn't try to turn him into some uncool, racist, Archie Bunker jerk.

If you have a smartphone get the Ron Swanson soundboard. It is very funny.

Stop calling me Shirly.

Did you watch the clip?

The public forum doesn’t refer to Free Republic. It refers to some sort of government-sponsored gathering that Ron Swanson disdains.
