BATHTUB TEST
(Note: you may substitute the word liberal with progressive)
During a visit to the mental asylum, a liberal Senator asked the Director
what the criteria is that defines whether a patient is an
institutionalized conservative or liberal.
"Well," said the Director, "we fill up a bathtub with water,
then we offer a teaspoon, a teacup, and a bucket to the patient and ask the
patient to empty the water out of the tub."
Okay, here's your test:
1. Would you use the spoon?
2. Would you use the teacup?
3. Would you use the bucket?
"Oh, I understand," said the Senator. "A normal liberal would
choose the bucket since it is larger than the teacup or spoon."
(scroll down, please)
"Right !"
answered the Director,
"but a normal conservative
would just reach in and pull out the stopper."
So how did you do?
Yea, I
guess it's obvious --- I'm not a liberal
