Interesting way to compare the likely thinking of a conservative versus a liberal

The following are not my words, but I think they are appropriate for thought:
  • If a conservative doesn’t like guns, he doesn`t buy one.
  • If a liberal doesn't like guns, he feels that no one should have one.

  • If a conservative is a vegetarian, he doesn`t eat meat.
  • If a liberal is, he wants to ban all meat products for everyone.

  • If a conservative sees a foreign threat, he thinks about how to defeat his enemy.
  • A liberal wonders how to surrender gracefully and still look good.

  • If a conservative is homosexual, he quietly leads his life.
  • If a liberal is homosexual, he loudly demands legislated respect.

  • If a black man or Hispanic are conservative, they see themselves as independently successful.
  • Their liberal counterparts see themselves as victims in need of government protection.
  • If a conservative is down-and-out, he thinks about how to better his situation.
  • A liberal wonders who is going to take care of him.
  • If a conservative doesn’t like a talk show host, he switches channels.
  • Liberals demand that those they don’t like be shut down.
  • If a conservative is a non-believer, he doesn’t go to church.
  • A liberal non-believer wants any mention of God or religion silenced.
  • If a conservative decides he needs health care, he goes about shopping for it, or may choose a job that provides it.
  • A liberal demands that the rest of us pay for his.
