Didnt see a poll, thought it would be interesting.

Since we're already discussing politics in like 50 threads though, the discussion in this thread will be primarily offtopic...

Who are generally better-looking, libs or conservs?

Which would be more unpleasant, eating brussel sprouts or changing your political affiliation?

Who looks funnier, Bush or Kerry?

Who is hotter, Laura Bush or Teresa Kerry?

Who is more handsome, Edwards or Cheney?

Which party has more screaming idiots?

Why are the Greens so funny?

Why are the Reformers so scary?

How many Libertarians would it take to screw in a lightbulb?


you get the idea :p


But the poll is serious!

You know, I think it's kind of funny. I couldn't give an answer to the liberal/conservative poll. It reminded me of a telephone computer survey I received several times this summer. The voice asked, "If the presidential election were held tomorrow, who would you vote for... [I begrudgingly chose not to take issue with the grammatical error, quickly noting that it should have been asking 'for whom would you vote' then set that aside] Press 1 for John Kerry... Press 2 for George Bush." I actually sat on the line waiting for more options! The voice repeated the [grammatically incorrect] question three times before hanging up on me. I think that sums up the American Political System. They successfully force hundreds of millions of people to accept only one of two ideologies. As far as the rest of the poll...

Who are generally better-looking, libs or conservs?
If you go by the Fox News Channel, it's definitely Republicans. Whenever they have their "contrasting" viewpoints, the conservative is always some thirty-something blue-eyed blond with a perfectly swelling bosom and the liberal is an overweight, middle-aged balding man with a harelip.

Which would be more unpleasant, eating brussel sprouts or changing your political affiliation?
Eating brussels [it's plural-sorry] sprouts. I am a staunch independently-minded individual. Liberal=communist; conservative=facist; neither have a proper place in my sphere of existance.

Who looks funnier, Bush or Kerry?
Bush. He looks like Alfred E. Neuman and I thought that before all the internet pics of his face superimposed over the Mad man.

Who is hotter, Laura Bush or Teresa Kerry?
As a female, I really have no opinion. Though if forced to make a decision, I would have to say that since intelligence turns me on, Teresa would win. Laura appears to have the IQ of Teresa's left shoe. And that's an off-the-rack Bloomingdale's shoe, nothing like Prada. Prada shoes are much smarter than Laura Bush.

Who is more handsome, Edwards or Cheney?
Are you kidding me? Edwards. Youth and vigor aside, at least he smiles now and again.

Which party has more screaming idiots?
Both. Hands down, there are more screaming idiots in the Democratic and Republican parties combined than there are in the entire Islamic Fundamentalist World.

Why are the Greens so funny?
They're not really. It's just that people display that nervous laugh that one has when they think that, for one fleeting moment, maybe there should be more to our elected officials and political system than Republican vs. Demorat.

Why are the Reformers so scary?
Same as above.

How many Libertarians would it take to screw in a lightbulb?
Just one. Because they don't believe in gigantic government bureaucracies and seventeen committes and "Light-bulb Czars" to get the job done. They just get a freaking light bulb and screw it in.

Hope this helps. It was fun playing.
