*L* Saw a cool new t-shirt today. Pretty much says it all straight out:
Liberalism definition: Moochers, electing looters, to steal from producers

Jake: Saw the shirt in an ad from the TheBlackSphere.net. They have a couple of stores and one is the Patriot shop or some such. That's where the sell the shirts. They had another that tickled me it said something like:
Taxpayers: The few, the pissed!

The T-shirt was the definition of a liberal.
I gave the current online Urban Dictionary definitions for Republican. I wanted to find a T-shirt with a definition, but I couldn't, so I just pasted the dictionary definitions instead.

Hey, I didn't write any of those definitions. You can google Republican and click the Urban Dictionary yourself.

No, I was posting the definition of a Republican on the Urban dictionary, since the opposite of liberal is republican these days. You can look up the definition of conservative if you prefer.
Why, it's only funny when something makes fun of liberals?

That is a serious definition.
This is so much simpler:
Liberalism definition: Moochers, electing looters, to steal from producers
Is this Urban Dictionary a work of humor or fiction?

Google it yourself... Urban Dictionary. It's mostly definitions of music terms and other under 30s stuff. I was actually amazed that that's what it pulled up for Republican... end of an era if all the under 30 think this way, and you can tell by the thumbs that it's 2:1. All definitions are VOTED on, the most thumbs up floats to the top.
Might not be a good idea to wear that T-shirt near a college campus or HS these days.

I was most interested in where it's content came from. It said:
"A valid e-mail address is required to submit a definition.[9] By default, each definition is automatically accepted or rejected based on the number of "Publish" or "Don't Publish" votes it receives by editors, comprising volunteers of the public. There are no criteria that editors have to follow in approving or rejecting definitions; often definitions are not even read during the decision process"
But in reality, it is a slang dictionary. A vocabulary heavily used by gangsters, felons, gangbangers... Do you understand Helen? Yep,they are mostly under 30.

I guess you consider most kids under 30 gangsters, felons, gangbangers? You have to have a valid email (do these people have emails or even internet?), you have to at least be able to write (are these people able to spell?), most of the definitions are pretty witty if you move away from that single definition that offends you so much (they are at least semi-intelligent).
Check out some of the other definitions too. These are kids, and they pretty much follow the exact thinking of other kids these days. The 'news' for kids is Reddit, they don't read much else, check THAT out.

*LOL* First off Helen, your definitions are obviously posted by folks who don't know Republicans or understand them, in other words, folks like yourself. And the T-shirt was a definition of a liberal so yours should have been for a conservative, which of course you could not find, because conservative values make too much sense to make a funny t-shirt *L*.*
Secondly: It's a freaking humorous t-shirt. To put all liberal crap you've posted on a T-shirt, it would have to be Paul Bunyan's T-shirt and most folks would get bored trying to read it all, just as many of us are with your over-lengthy posts. In short, be short. If it takes a freaking book as long as the Obamacare bill to to justify your position, you can bet your position is probably f**ked up.
In short: Conservatives believe in smaller, less intrusive government and a meritocracy where folks keep the fruits of their own labor.
Liberals believe in big intrusive government where politicians buy power by buying votes from moochers, with money stolen from those who lead meritorious lives and are producers...Mel

No Rich, we just like it short & sweet from you liberals. Most of us conservatives have better things to do than spend all day reading reams of liberal B.S.
Go out and chase your little white bird egg all over your big green cow pasture. That's about all you liberals are good for.
