If you thought DU was crazy, there is IMDB, which is full of moonbats.
Can YOU have a sense of Humor about YOURSELVES?!

People have demanded that Christians and Conservatives tolerate jokes that their expense. I hope that when the 'satire gun' is turned a bit, that people on the other side of the aisle can handle a bit of fun at their expense. We all know that the right side of the aisle gets dumped on constantly! LETS HAVE A SENSE OF HUMOR! Don’t preach to the 'right' and then get fussy when you get a little bit of what you've given! I'm not saying this show is right or left but people on message boards are already huffing and puffing about the jokes played at the environmentalists & liberals expense. These are probably the same people who watch Lil' Bush, American Dad and Family Guy and laugh with glee at each time a Christian or Conservative is Zinged.
Freedom of speech rocks! You zing me & I can zing you! It's all good! We can both take a closer look at ourselves and laugh at our quirks! THIS IS SUCH A GREAT COUNTRY! LAUGH AT YOURSELVES! We all know you've been demanding the same of others for quite some time!

Um... no huffing and puffing here. Maybe you should have posted this in the messageboards where I'm sure you've honestly seen people get upset.

Do you realize that you are the exact kind of person who this show is mocking?
Let me break you down line by line:
"There isn't really much to criticise liberals for though"
How pompous and solipsistic of you. Not much to criticize?! Are you a writer for David Letterman? Everyone can be mocked, everyone. Believe me, liberals are quite easy to make fun of. People who can't make fun of themselves have no true sense of humor.
"You can be a RATIONAL liberal, but you can't be a rational Christian or Conservative. There is a big difference there"
Yes, you can be a rational liberal. Absolutely. Now you may have trouble wrapping your brain around this one, but people who think differently than you can be raional as well. Sorry to burst your world view. You said "Christian OR conservative", that's a very big "or". President Obama is a self proclaimed christian, so is he automatically "irrational" according to your logic? How about a non-christian conservative, can they be "rational"?
"We can laugh at liberals who are insanely fanatic about environmentalism - yet that is a small percentage"
Apparently you don't own a television. Everything is geared toward a "green" lifestyle. NBC promotes environmentalism and the mainstream advertisers pushes green living. Know why? Because there are tons of people who buy into environmentalism without questioning anything.
"But there are a LOT of irrational and ignorant Christians and Conservatives."
There are irrational Christians and conservatives. Just like there are irrational jews, muslims, hindus, buddhists, libertarians and liberals. You are embarassingly close minded and naive. You are a disgrace to good, hard-working liberals everywhere.
There are lot of irrational and hateful liberals, AKA moonbats, moron.
