Joe gets up in the morning facing the reality that he must trudge off
to another hopeless day at a mundane job with no hope of pursuing any
personal ambition with his employer since he is an involuntary member
of the union that diligently guards against his ambition. *He has
liberals to thank for the knowledge that at least that he has a job
waiting for him every day...maybe, and that he can blithely tend to
his work as a member of the collective. *He can thank the union gods
that he is the quintessential nowhere man.

his friend who isn't a union member, however, just got laid off from
his 4th job in 3 years because his company sent his job overseas...and
his friend's daughter got killed at her job because there was no union
inspired safety program...


Joe can thank liberals for closely monitoring how he thinks about
others and for facing the prospect that he could be personally brought
up on charges if he were to express sentiments in public that were
deemed to be intolerant. *He can thank liberals for helping to shape
and mold his behavior through the use of these legislated behavioral
controls.

his friend, the republican, dons his KKK hood and, with his klan
friends, attacks a local black community to ensure they 'stay in their
place' and don't try to 'take' white people's jobs...


Joe can thank liberals that he does not have to bear the
responsibility of ownership of personal property.

his friend is used to getting his phone tapped, courtesy of the GOP
inspired patriot act...he's used to seeing the black vans pull up and
take away people who aren't of the 'right' religion or political
persuasion...



Joe can thank liberals that the elementary education professionals
that dedicate their time to instruct his children while he and his
wife are toiling under the beneficence of the union are also united in
solidarity under the auspices of their own union.

his GOP friend has to start and end each day in state sponsored prayer
at the work place...courtesy of the fundamentalist christians in the
GOP. those who don't pray are sent to collectivist re-education
centers where they are beaten until they confess their love of jesus.


Joe can thank liberals that his children are eligible for welfare
assistance programs for the young, programs that help provide vital,
healty food stuffs and health care. *For Joe this state assistance is
welcome as it helps to offset the personal property that is taken from
Joe every week in the form of state and federal taxes (and union
dues). *

and his GOP friend has his 401K taken from him so that those who run
goldman, sachs, bear stearns and other hedge funds dont lose any money
in the downturn. they were rich when it started and they've insured,
courtesy of reagan and bush, that no messy regulations are in place to
prevent them from raiding middle class bank accounts
