I found this in Michelle Malkins blog

Take a look at what she has to say about it

Here

[null and void]

So, suppose one dreams of electric sheep?

I'm not too sure about liberals being more restul sleepers than conservatives.

Conservatives have more children than liberals. A 2-month-old screaming in a bassinet at the foot of your bed does not do much to promote sound sleep.

Dream Real world a strange, scary place for liberals.

[Froufrou]

" liberals are more restless sleepers and have a higher number of bizarre, surreal dreams -- including fantasy settings and a wide variety of sexual encounters. Conservatives' dreams were, on average, far more mundane and focused on realistic people, situations and settings. "

Bwahahha, no sh*t!

[JamesP81]

Overall, conservative males appear to sleep the most soundly and remember the fewest dreams, while liberal women are the most restless sleepers and fantastical dreamers.

Interesting. I almost never dream at all, or if I do, I almost never remember them.

Best line:

"While some of my colleagues think my research reinforces the stereotype of repressed, uptight conservatives, it also shows that many liberals may he hanging on the edge of mental well-being," Mr. Bulkeley said. "There may be a lot of hidden distress and unpleasantness in the liberal mind."

Liberalism is a mental disease.

[Kaslin]

Probably what the author meant was tossing and turning all night long

[Graybeard58]

I went to sleep last night and dreamed I was awake but when I woke up I was still asleep.

[I-ambush]

Perhaps because conservative men work harder?

[Kaslin]

It is said that that everyone dreams. But how would anyone know? I dream very seldom and I don't recall any weird dreams

Same here. I maybe remember one dream a year, and then it's only if i had to get up and go to the bathroom..........

"There may be a lot of hidden distress and unpleasantness in the liberal mind."

What is new about that?

[George W. Bush]

Mr. Bulkeley said that the most surprising result in his study is that conservatives showed a higher tendency for lucid dreaming -- being aware they were asleep. Conservatives largely reported using their "dream awareness" to wake themselves up from uncomfortable situations and nightmares, he said.

I wake myself from bad dreams this way. And I hardly ever remember a dream. OTOH, the dreams I do recall can be wildly imaginative and odd though not a lot of sex dreams compared to other people.

I guess I really am a dull conservative type.

There may be a lot of hidden distress and unpleasantness in the liberal mind.

Prima facie evidence, I'd say:

You're watching television. Suddenly you realize there's a wasp crawling on your arm. What do you do?

"it also shows that many liberals may he hanging on the edge of mental well-being," Mr. Bulkeley said. "There may be a lot of hidden distress and unpleasantness in the liberal mind.""

To the edge of mental well-being? They have already fallen off the cliff.

Kill it. (actually, I'd take it outside)

Good one. Are you asleep now? Are you sure?
