A History Lesson

Humans originally existed as members of small bands of nomadic

hunters/gatherers. They lived on deer in the mountains during the summer and

would go to the coast and live on fish and lobster in the winter.

The two most important events in all of history were the invention of beer

and the invention of the wheel. The wheel was invented to get man to the

beer. These were the foundation of modern civilization and together were

the catalyst for the splitting of humanity into two distinct subgroups:

1. Liberals

2. Conservatives.

Once beer was discovered, it required grain and that was the beginning of

agriculture. Neither the glass bottle nor aluminum can were invented yet, so

while our early humans were sitting around waiting for them to be invented,

they just stayed close to the brewery.

That's how villages were formed.

Some men spent their days tracking and killing animals to B-B-Q at night

while they were drinking beer. This was the beginning of what is known as

the Conservative movement.

Other men who were weaker and less skilled at hunting learned to live off

the conservatives by showing up for the nightly B-B-Q's and doing the

sewing, fetching, and hair dressing. This was the beginning of the Liberal

movement.

Some of these liberal men eventually evolved into women. The rest became

known as girlie-men. Some noteworthy liberal achievements include the

domestication of cats, the invention of group therapy, group hugs, and the

concept of Democratic voting to decide how to divide the meat and beer that

conservatives provided.

Over the years Conservatives came to be symbolized by the largest, most

powerful land animal on earth, the elephant.

Liberals are symbolized by the jackass.

Modern liberals like imported beer (with lime added), but most prefer white

wine or imported bottled water They eat raw fish but like their beef well

done. Sushi, tofu, and French food are standard liberal fare. Another

interesting evolutionary side note: most of their women have higher

testosterone levels than their men. Most social workers, personal injury

attorneys, journalists, dreamers in Hollywood and group therapists are

liberals. Liberals invented the designated hitter rule because it wasn't

fair to make the pitcher also bat.

Conservatives drink domestic beer. They eat red meat and still provide for

their women. Conservatives are big-game hunters, rodeo cowboys, lumberjacks,

construction workers, firemen, medical doctors, police officers, corporate

executives, athletes, Marines, and generally anyone who works productively.

Conservatives who own companies hire other conservatives who want to work

for a living.

Liberals produce little or nothing. They like to govern the producers and

decide what to do with the production. Liberals believe Europeans are more

enlightened than Americans. That is why most of the liberals remained in

Europe when conservatives were coming to America. They crept in after the

Wild West was tamed and created a business of trying to get more for

nothing.

Here ends today's lesson in world history: It should be noted that a Liberal

may have a momentary urge to angrily respond to the above before forwarding

it. A Conservative will simply laugh and be so convinced of the absolute

truth of this history that it will be forwarded immediately to other true

believers and to more liberals just to piss them off.
