It is good to laugh.
Obviously in a lot of the most important ways (i.e. FACTS), there's no difference between a "liberal" statist and a "conservative" statist -- since the difference really boils down to "Should the government increase its percentage of theft against you by 2%, or by 1%? And should it be spent against your will on social programs you don't believe in, or on subsidies and grants you don't believe in?"
So even though there's just as much wrong with the contradictory and hypocritical shortsighted viewpoint of so-called "conseratives", I am sharing this brief list of "liberal" contradictory beliefs for it "funny cuz it's [horrifyingly] true" value. ;D

TO BE A GOOD LIBERAL
To be a good liberal, you have to believe...
-the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.
-that the same teacher who can't teach fourth graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.
-that guns in the hands of law-abiding Americans are more of a threat than U.S. nuclear weapons technology in the hands of Chinese communists.
-that there was no art before Federal funding.
-that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate than by yuppies driving SUVs.
-that gender roles are artificial, but being homosexual is natural.
-that capital punishment is bad, but abortion on demand is good.
-that businesses create oppression, and governments create prosperity.
-that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists who've never been outside of Seattle do.
-that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.
-the military, not corrupt politicians, start wars.
-the NRA is bad, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution, while the ACLU is good, because it supports certain parts of the Constitution.
-that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.
-that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E. Lee, or Thomas Edison.
-that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides aren't.
-that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried, is because the right people haven't been in charge.
-conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but liars and sex offenders belong in the White House.
-that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.
-that illegal Democratic party funding by the Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States.
It is good to laugh at such nonsense
Some other biting truth in the humor section:
