Study: More Aging Conservative Voters Forgetting Who They Hate

A new study conducted by the Joint Center for Political and Economic Studies has revealed that an increasing number of the nation's conservative voters are starting to forget who they hate.

The study's findings bode poorly for the future of a Republican Party that is perilously dependent on the ability of its aging white base to remember that they detest gays, Mexicans, Muslims and socialists, among others.

"The severity of this problem can't be overstated," remarked JCPES Senior Research Associate Paul Ramos, "These people are the GOP's foundation, and more and more of them can't remember which of their own children they hate, let alone billions of people they've never even met."

A multiple-choice portion of the study designed to test respondents' ability to hate homosexuals found that 11% of conservatives incorrectly defined the word 'faggot' as a kitty-cat, up from 5% in 2002.
"Who's a fuzzy wittle faggot? My Mister uh… oh, what's that faggot's name?" commented one 82 year-old conservative woman.

Perhaps even more troubling for the GOP is the rising number of elderly conservatives who've actually assumed the identities of those they formerly despised as a result of dementia or stroke.

Former American Families Coalition President James Manning, now known as Culo Caliente, leader of San Antonio, Texas's first transgender mariachi band, proclaimed: "Me amo toda la gente del mundo! No tengo tiempo para el odio!" ("I love myself all the people of the world! I do not have time for the hatred!" )

Is this something from The Onion or (I hate to ask) is it real?

I find this ironic in light of the current political situation....just consider all the liberals who voted on obamma only to have him lie about ending wars, leaving medical marijuana alone, closing gauntanimo, ....and those same fools are talking about voting for him. seems both sides forgot who the enemy was ....

One of the problems with the liberal mindset is that anyone who disagrees with them is a 'hater'. Great way to silence debate, which of course is the goal. Don't argue, reason, or debate, just call your opponent names. I think calling others with whom you disagree foul names is hateful. By the way, is anyone naive enough to believe that the Westboro Baptist Church clowns (see picture in op)are representative of conservatives?

You may not have noticed that the heading for this forum is 'Political Satire'.

sat·ire [sat-ahy^uhr]
noun
1. the use of irony, sarcasm, ridicule, or the like, in exposing, denouncing, or deriding vice, folly, etc.
2. a literary composition, in verse or prose, in which human folly and vice are held up to scorn, derision, or ridicule.

Relax, take a deep breath and have a laugh.
(Although I always thought Westboro was representative, just more vocal than the rest)

Sorry mods, I really try to keep quiet during election season but sometimes I just can't help myself.

[Letterhead954]

Sorry. Didn't catch the satire. It's just that I see the real thing all the time and it bothers me. Thanks for the correction. I'll go take a chill-pill.
