Difference between conservatives and liberals

My 21 year old son and I were visiting on the way home from the fire the other evening and I commented on the fact that the "tree huggers" would love us as we worked pretty hard to save a few cedar trees. He said, "You know the difference between conservatives and liberals? The liberals want the quickest, easiest way to fix a problem, even if it only fixes the problem for a short while, while conservatives are willing to wait and suffer thru' the problem, however long it takes and however much they have to suffer, as long as it takes care of the problem for good."

I commented, "So liberals are willing to put a band aid on while conservatives will let a wound get air and heal, while taking longer, but doing a better job?"

"Pretty much," he said.

Not too bad for a dang kid! :wink: :lol: :D

You know, I think he's finally starting to grow up. :D

Seems to me someone did a good job raising him.
