Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius was in Memphis, Tenn., for an education and outreach session about the health care marketplace, when a state senator presented her with a gift she didn’t appear to be happy to receive.

LOL

The ability to laugh at yourself is one of the most important human qualities

So true! Reagan was a master at that, and it served him well. But most liberals are incapable of laughing at themselves (or even laughing at all).

Just check the evidence. Conservative blogs are full of humor and witty comments. You rarely see that on liberal sites.

Screw her, she said she took full responsibility; its just a Senator trying to help her out...

[MinuteGal]

Excellent, my dear Chode....and quick, too!

Thanks

Is it ok if I refer to her as America’s Mother in Law from now on?

Leftists only like to laugh at and mock others, the way their idol (Alinsky) taught them. It seems to be the #1 tool in their toolkits. And, anything that we perceive as serious (let’s just say all of the private insurance plans we liked), they deride, mock, and laugh at, telling us it was just a joke (or “scam”) or something.

[Chode]

most welcome...

[ArcadeQuarters]

She might not understand the message. Like the rest of the Obama administration, she thinks she’s always the smartest person in the room.

[Red in Blue PA]

She is most likely angry that the lowly proles are pushing back.

“Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.”

And the cruel and ironic truth is that it works far better against liberals than conservatives.

I don't think you're right about that.

We tend to think it works better on us because it hurts us.

But liberals have enormously inflated egos. They really believe they're better than ordinary people. They also really believe they're highly intelligent and qualified to speak on every topic under the sun.

I think humor works on them just as well as it does on us, if not better. Don't expect them to admit it though.

[Mustangman]

Well then, we’ve played a card from his rule book on this one, haven’t we?

[Mustangman]

Agreed. Liberals are uptight. They are are always certain someone or something is out to get them. Optimism is a trait only conservatives seem to be able to access and use on a daily basis.

[jetson]

ONE OF THESE RIGHT ACROSS THE CHOPS WOULD HAVE BEEN BETTER.

First time I saw that pic, I thought it was a brilliant Photoshop. Now it’s even funnier, if that’s possible.

[Syncro]

She sure does!

[Steely Tom]

Well then, we’ve played a card from his rule book on this one, haven’t we?

Absolutely.

And judging from the look on Ms. Sebaceous' face, it worked pretty well.

[Cowboy Bob]

Yes. Ridicule is the liberal’s Achilles heal. They simply cannot take a joke.

I think that Alinsky’s rules for radicals is a blue print for destroying liberals. It is obvious that liberals do not understand conservatives. Well, how did Alinsky research for his book? By studying liberals. If you want the key for destroying liberals - read Alinsky.

[Fightin Whitey]

She is a cold fish.

Frozen cod would be my guess.
