Similarities between DUers and Freepers
There ARE some, you know.

1) Both love their pets and post about them.
2) Both think the media is totally biased against them.
3) Both think the other side is evil incarnate.
4) Both are patriotic.
5) Both regard politics as very important.
6) Both think the future of the nation hinges on this election.
7) Both flame those who don't tow the party line.
8) Both boards have voiciferous pot smokers.


Can you think of any others?

7. More DNA in common than either have with Chimps
maybe...

However we don't have enough Neanderthal DNA around to test which group resembles that primitive extinct hominid. Anyone want to take bets here?

10. Me too
But it wasn't enough to see the GOP as the evil incarnate. Slightly naive and selfish..? Yes. Evil incarnate? Don't quite think so.

16. Both are NOT patriotic, quite true
if freep's wanted to learn what PATRIOTISM is, I would suggest they read the writings of the Founding Fathers. They should also take a peek at the Constitution and the Bill of Rights.

And REALLY pay attn. to that "Seperation of Curch and State" thingy.

12. we are Americans after all but here is an important difference- FREEPERS
support an awol, psychotic, limp dikkked, brain dead president and a regime of greedy old prikkks bent on world domination at the barrel of a gun. Where as DUers just want peace, love, some coin and for the aforementioned to stop fucking it up for them.

15. Yep!
I never felt the need to attack some third world country with a fifth rate military and a tin horn dictator nor understood why Bush did. Now we support them, die for them, and they don't even like us. Makes a lot of sense, doesn't it? But Bush donors have never seen higher profits. I guess that's what it's all about and if freepers can somehow defend that, I'll repeat they are a touch naive and selfish.

13. We each have two eyes
two arms, two legs, and a brain, no wait, forget that last part. I've seen no evidence that they have brains.
