Liberals, Conservatives, and Alabamians
The Difference Between The Liberal and Conservative "Debate"
Over The War On Terrorism:
Question: You're walking down a deserted street with your wife and two
small children. Suddenly, a dangerous looking man with a huge knife
and a turban comes around the corner and is running at you while
screaming obscenities. In your hand is a Glock .40 cal. and you are an
expert shot.
You have mere seconds before he reaches you and your family.
What do you do?

Liberal Answer:
Well, that's not enough information to answer the question! Does the man look
poor or oppressed? Have I ever done anything to him that isinspiring him to
attack? Could we run away? What does my wife think? What about the kids?
Could I possibly swing the gun like a club and knock the knife out of his hand?
What does the law say about this situation? Is it possible he'd be happy with
just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me or would he just be content
to wound me? If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away
while he was stabbing me? This is all so confusing! I need to debate this with
some friends for a few days to try to come to a conclusion.

Wife: "Sweetheart, he looks like he's still moving, what do you kids think?"
Son: "Mom's right Dad, I saw it too..."
BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! Click.
Daughter: "Nice grouping Daddy!"
Husband: "Hon, could you check your purse for a fresh clip? I seem to
have left my other two in the truck with the shotguns
