For all of the people that might not understand...

If you don't understand the Democrats' version of tax cuts (and you are not alone), this will explain it for you:

50,000 people go to a baseball game, but the game was rained out. A refund was then due. The team was about to mail refunds when the Congressional Democrats stopped them and suggested that they send out refund amounts based on the Democrat National Committee's interpretation of fairness.

After all, if the refunds were made based on the price each person paid for the tickets, most of the money would go to the wealthiest ticket holders. That would be unconscionable. The DNC plan says:

People in the $10 seats will get back $15, because they have less money to spend. Call it an "Earned" Income Ticket Credit". Persons "earn" it by demonstrating little ambition, few skills and poor work habits, thus keeping them at entry-level wages.

People in the $25 seats will get back $25, because that's only fair.

People in the $50 seats will get back $1, because they already make a lot of money and don't need a refund. If they can afford a $50 ticket, then they must not be paying enough taxes.

People in the $75 luxury seats will have to pay another $50, because they have way too much to spend.

The people driving by the stadium who couldn't afford to watch the game will get $10 each, even though they didn't pay anything in, because they need the most help.

Now do you understand? If not, contact Representative Richard Gephart or Senator Tom Daschle for assistance.

But if you want to be a GOOD Democrat, there are some prerequisites you

must have first. Compare the below and see how you rate.

1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.

2. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.

3. You have to believe 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.

4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.

5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and more affected by yuppies driving SUVs.

6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural.

7. You have to be against capital punishment but support abortion on demand.

8. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity.

9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists from Seattle do.

10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.

11. You have to believe the military, not corrupt politicians start wars.

12. You have to believe 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.

13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.

14. You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E. Lee or Thomas Edison.

15. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides aren't.

16. You have to believe Hillary Clinton is really a lady.

17. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried, is because the right people haven't been in charge.

18. You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar and sex offender belongs in the White House.

19. You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.

20. You have to believe that illegal Democratic party funding by the Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States.

That's ridiculous and you know it. Democrats aren't Soviet style communists, so don't try to make them out to be like that. You're just the same as any media outlet--trying to formulate an argument that is way overblown and take advantage of those who know no better.

And now, im about to dispute every point you posted, cuz im bored as hell here at work

But if you want to be a GOOD Democrat, there are some prerequisites you

must have first. Compare the below and see how you rate.

1. You have to believe the AIDS virus is spread by a lack of federal funding.

And if you're gonna be a good republican, you think that gays and lesbians are scum of the earth and don't deserve the same rights as "normal heterosexual" beings

2. You have to believe that the same teacher who can't teach 4th graders how to read is somehow qualified to teach those same kids about sex.

And if you're gonna be a good republican like Mr. Coburn who won election in Oklahoma, you believe that a single woman who has a kid should NOT be allowed to teach in school.

3. You have to believe 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.

"law abiding Americans"? i doubt gang members are "law abiding"

The thing republicans will never understand is that the 2nd amendment was written back in the 18th century when people NEEDED guns to protect themselves. It was an everyday thing to have a gun. But now, as you see hundreds of people die due to guns, the republicans sit next to an archaic group like the NRA, we're not moving forward, just staying put.

And don't even start about US nuclear weapons tech. in the hands of Communist terrorist. Do you even hear your language? "Chinese Communists"? HELLO MCFLY, we're trying to work with the Chinese and get them on our side. How about Pakistan? How about India?

4. You have to believe that there was no art before Federal funding.

And if you're a good republican, you believe that art is an expendable pasttime

5. You have to believe that global temperatures are less affected by cyclical, documented changes in the earth's climate, and more affected by yuppies driving SUVs.

Another stupid point. Do you realize that there's a HUGE hole in the OZONE layer, and it's mostly attributed to chloroflourocarbons, as well as gas expenditure from SUV's and trucks.

Funny, cuz the hole isn't as big in Europe or Africa

6. You have to believe that gender roles are artificial but being homosexual is natural.

Well, it is. Your point, missy?

BTW im sure DICKHEAD Cheaney has a wonderful relationship with his lesbian daughter. fuckin old world chump! get with the program!

7. You have to be against capital punishment but support abortion on demand.

And if you're a good republican, you lock up minor drug offenders for years, but let killers with guns off for good behavior

8. You have to believe that businesses create oppression and governments create prosperity.

Democrats believe in businesses, but not monopolies. Don't sound so extreme

PS, Republicans think governments are a bastion of morality. How stupid and ignorant is that statement. People don't want a gov't to be a moral haven. they just want it for an army, social security and other minor things

9. You have to believe that hunters don't care about nature, but loony activists from Seattle do.

yea, it's a nice picture to see hunters kill animals and have them stuffed and placed on a mantle in their living room. Im sure the animals are much better there than in the wild

another hypocrisy example of "compassionate conservatives"

10. You have to believe that self-esteem is more important than actually doing something to earn it.

WTF do you mean by this??????????/

11. You have to believe the military, not corrupt politicians start wars.

False. Look at Bush. we think he's a corrupt politician driven by interests (his father, oil companies, his old cabinet made of Bush Sr people)

12. You have to believe 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.

Look at point 3 again

And where would we be without the ACLU. Gosh, you really are making bad comparisons here

13. You have to believe that taxes are too low, but ATM fees are too high.

This is a non political point with no reference to any particular party. Democrats don't look at taxes as being "too low"

14. You have to believe that Margaret Sanger and Gloria Steinem are more important to American history than Thomas Jefferson, General Robert E. Lee or Thomas Edison.

Thomas Jefferson was more democratic than most presidents. Im not even going further, cuz this is another idiotic point

15. You have to believe that standardized tests are racist, but racial quotas and set-asides aren't.

who believes standardized tests are racist?/???

16. You have to believe Hillary Clinton is really a lady.

Hmmmmmm

17. You have to believe that the only reason socialism hasn't worked anywhere it's been tried, is because the right people haven't been in charge.

Socialism has worked in Europe, and they have a much better retirement program out there than here.

18. You have to believe conservatives telling the truth belong in jail, but a liar and sex offender belongs in the White House.

Here we go, back to President Clinton.

Well, then tell me why Mr. Bush, a former coke user and drunk driver, is in the white house? Tell me how almost EVERY politician, regardless of party, gets down with younger women. Another naive point

19. You have to believe that homosexual parades displaying drag, transvestites and bestiality should be constitutionally protected and manger scenes at Christmas should be illegal.

you must be from kansas where there's nothing but white hetero people. WAKE UP AND SMELL 2004!!!

ps- i doubt the Democrats wanted manger scenes to be "illegal"

20. You have to believe that illegal Democratic party funding by the Chinese is somehow in the best interest of the United States.
