Call for abstracts
Conservatives have published an encyclopedia of conservatism.

I'm calling for entries for the liberal version of the encyclopedia (or dictionary because, admit it, we're lazy). For example:

Persecution: A feeling conservatives feel when they are not in control of government, in control of government, or partially in control of government. See fibromyalgia, and Christian Persecution complex.


Or

Trickle down economics: Also known as Voodoo Economics. A failed economic theory. Put into place by two presidents. The first, Reagan, had to institute the largest tax increase in history after cutting taxes failed to create more revenue. A record deficit was nonetheless created followed by a major recession. The second, George W. Bush, used trickle-down economics to create an even larger deficit, but as yet has not realized he has to raise taxes to prevent economic collapse.


Or

Accountability: A quality required in one's political opponents, but not in one's own party.


You guys get the idea. Stephen Colbert had a great set for the encyclopedia tonight.

Small Government: Mentioning Jesus in political speeches.
Large Government: Actually doing what Jesus says.


Ha!
