At the Democrat Table Again

So last night we hung out with our local Antlered Animal club of which we are members.  The people we usually sit with are big, long-time, staunch Democrats.   Funny thing is, the way they talked at first (years ago) I would have figured them for Republicans.  But they're probably best described as those Blue Dogs we always hear about.

At any rate, we hung out for a little while, and we got the usual good natured ribbing about being "Republicans" (we're not, but we let it slide because we're definitely NOT Democrats).  And then we went out to dinner afterwards, and after enduring the car stereo/assh*le joke with the punchline being "Limbaugh, Beck, or Palin", one of them said, "I share.  I'm a Democrat, I share."

Of course, it's always easier to share other peoples' stuff, which I suppose is why it's easier to be a Democrat.

Your democrat friend might be shocked to learn who the genuine givers are. Why not teach him a subtle lesson by giving him this book, which was written by a liberal who had to sing a different tune after doing some research? Your friend will come away from the book feeling like Scrooge.
