Humor - Condensed History Lesson

For those who don't know much about history...... here is a condensed version. 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: 1. The invention of beer, and 2. The invention of the wheel. (The wheel was invented to get man to the beer.) These were the foundations 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 came to be 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 what came to be known as 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. Su****ofu, 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 . The liberals 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 tick them off. The following is for all you history buffs. It was March 6, 1836. On that fateful day, Davy Crockett woke up and rose from his bunk on the main floor of the Alamo . He then walked up to the observation post along the west wall of this fort. William B. Travis and Jim Bowie were already there, looking out over the top of the wall. These three great men gazed at the hordes of Mexicans moving steadily toward them. With a puzzled look on his face, Crockett turned to Bowie and said, "Jim, are we having some landscaping done today?"

So........had John Edwards been around in the early days, how would he have fit in this picture?
The free man owns himself. He can damage himself with either eating or drinking....... If he does he is certainly a damn fool, and he might possibly be a damned soul; but if he may not, he is not a free man any more than a dog.

Those Meek Liberals…. Not to worry, One of us libels will crap a screen play about such history, while lounging about enjoying the French Rivera. We’ll get one of those Bold Conservatives to fork out the money to produce it, (we always spend and gamble with other people’s money) and somehow, the conservatives will buy pay an arm and a leg to rush out and see it about a month before it comes out on cable. - All the while eating a $5 batch of popcorn that cost some Meek Liberal cinema owner about 8 cents to make. The rest of the planet may buy all their home and office products made in China, their cars made in Japan, their fruit grown in South America, their Oil from the Middle-East, and even deal with Tech Support from India. But turn on any TV set in the Universe, and it’s good ole liberal Hollywood and Liberal American movies pouring out and invading every village large enough to have electricity. Thank Heavens for those bold Conservatives. If it weren’t for them, who would keep spending all that money just to watch people talk and move around. The Meek shall inherit the Earth? Not before they rent it to the Bold, with a $5 box of popcorn

It’s 2008. Davy Crockett’s Great, Great Grand-Niece, turns to Bowie’s Great, Great Grand-son and asks- "Jim, are we having some landscaping done today?" And he says- "Que?" It is Texas, and 2008 after all. Perhaps there’ a comedy in here somewhere…… Popcorn anyone?  It comes in Bar-B-Que flavored too..... Best Wishes- Dx
