Teddy Roosevelt

Teddy Roosevelt on Conservatives vs. Liberals : snopes.com

FALSE


However, although dozens of sites have attributed the phrase to the former president, none have been able to provide any information about where and when Roosevelt supposedly made this remark. The quote displayed above has been in circulation since at least 2004, when it was shared in the signature of someone (not Roosevelt) posting on an online forum.

"To anger a conservative, provide an internet link to their lies...and then watch them cry & whine."

Abraham Lincoln

Hey Can't No Mo..............pull my finger.............again......

You got that quote from a letter to the editor in today's (Tues 1/3) Daily Sun didn't you. It actually is "If you want to anger a conservative, tell him the truth". If you want to anger a liberal, tell him the truth"

It was a good letter. Can you imagine back in the early 1900's they were saying the same thing about liberals as they continue to say today. You just can't help some people and apparently this applies to liberals.

Personal Best Regards:

If you want to anger a conservative just speak to a point that makes sense and back it up with simple facts.

Facts to a liberal is whatever her liberal talking points tell her.

How do you confuse a liberal? You can't, they're born that way.

What do you call a basement full of Liberals? A whine cellar.

Did you hear about the new Obama diet? You let Putin eat your lunch everyday.

What do you get when you tell a liberal "a penny for your thoughts"? CHANGE.

There are some funny lines here We need to joke and laugh more both democrat and republican after all none of us is getting out of here alive.

We laugh and joke...we "fiddle" as our country burns...1/3 Hispanic, from #1 to #25...we're doing just great!

We'll be Mexico II within 30 years...something for your granddaughters to look forward to.

.......and just as a point of clarification, the whole notion of what is a liberal and what is a conservative has changed dramatically since the days of Theodore Roosevelt. Abraham Lincoln, a Republican, was a liberal in political thought because he opposed slavery. Teddy Roosevelt was the "trust buster" who favored government regulation, which made him a flaming liberal in his time. He actually ran for POTUS later in life under the Progressive Party nomination.

I bet there is a point buried in there somewhere.

Reagan was a Democrat for a time, also. Then he grew older and wiser. Does that fit in your narrative?
