Politically Incorrect Bumper Stickers

Actually my parents were the presidents of a homeschool group and we found that most of the time people are either conservative or extremely liberal.   Not very many people that are middle of the road homeschool. 

However, I have found that a lot more liberals are against homeschooling than conservatives. Something about us keeping our kids home and brainwashing them, making the girls wear long dresses, long hair, and not letting the kids read Harry Potter... oh, they also always say something about not enough socialization.  When my dad brings up homeschooling in class (he teaches college)  it is always the most maladjusted public school kid who asks about socialization.  But I digress...

So yeah, I didn't think it was completely correct, but pretty much.  My dad has gotten into many a debate about homeschooling with his liberal college co-workers, not so much with the conservative ones.

It's funny how much people's experiences can differ. In my homeschooled life (in which I never wore a dress, read Harry Potter with an obsessive fervor, and developed my own opinions, often totally opposite of my mom's...though I did have long hair, lol), it was almost exclusively conservatives who criticized homeschooling, although maybe that wouldn't have been true if we were conservative Christians..who knows. Interestingly, the person who probably criticized my homeschooling the most was a very Republican college professor I used to know...though he's very much an atheist.

The socialization argument still makes me LOL. As if being in a room with 30 people exactly your age for 13 years is somehow comparable to the real world, and therefore comprises appropriate socialization... 

I wasn't taking it personally at all snownose, just found it strange.

Sorry, I totally dragged this thread off topic...

There was a single frame cartoon that should be made into a bumper sticker.

"Are you coming the bed?"

"I can't. Someone on the internet is wrong and I'm not done ..."

 We need to start a thread about homeschool experiences, lol.  There are so many misconceptions about homeschoolers.  I think what happens is that people see something they don't like in someone and if they were homschooled they blame it on that.  If you are too liberal, too conservative, believe in God, don't believe in God, or whatever, they say it is because your parents brainwashed you into believing like they did and never let you get out and see for yourself.  Riiiigghht.  Smile and nod. (And make sarcastic comments when someone does something really stupid: "I bet *they* were homeschooled.";)

Anyhoo, completely disrailed.  Hi Jack!!! 

 
Bumper stickers...

I think therefore I am conservative

 A socialist is a comunist who is afraid of commitment

I am pro "choice"  ON SOCIAL SECURITY

I believe in gun control and I practice A LOT

God created man and woman.  Sam Colt made them equal

I believe in gun control and I practice A LOT

Reminds me of Ted Nugent's idea of gun control.

"Gun Control - hitting where you aim."

How about -

"My dog is smarter than your A & M student."

Of course, a true aggie joke like that would finish with "but that ain't sayin' much."

"Political Correctness means always having to say you're sorry"

"Save the seals, club a liberal"

"Bigot: A Conservative winning an argument with a Liberal"

"lib-er-al: noun: A person so open-minded their brains have fallen out"

"No Oil For Pacifists!"

"Liberalism: the haunting fear someone, somewhere, can help themselves"
