    CGar, I see you dont pay attention to DIBS’ forum posts”

    I tried to look at dave’s Forum post yesterday, but, like dave, it was taking much too long to load.

    The flood of American liberals sneaking across
    the border into Canada has intensified in the
    past week, sparking calls for increased patrols
    to stop the illegal immigration. The recent
    actions of the Tea Party are prompting an
    exodus among left-leaning citizens who fear
    they’ll soon be required to hunt, pray, and
    agree with Bill O’Reilly and Glenn Beck.

    Canadian border farmers say it’s not
    uncommon to see dozens of sociology
    professors, animal-rights activists and
    Unitarians crossing their fields at night. “I went
    out to milk the cows the other day, and there
    was a Hollywood producer huddled in the
    barn,” said Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield,
    whose acreage borders North Dakota . “The
    producer was cold, exhausted and hungry. He
    asked me if I could spare a latte and some
    free-range chicken. When I said I didn’t have
    any, he left before I even got a chance to
    show him my screenplay.”

    He then installed loudspeakers that blared
    Rush Limbaugh across the fields. “Not real
    effective,” he said. “The liberals still got
    through and Rush annoyed the cows so much
    that they wouldn’t give any milk.”

    Officials are particularly concerned about
    smugglers who meet liberals near the
    Canadian border, pack them into Volvo station
    wagons and drive them across the border
    where they are simply left to fend for
    themselves. “A lot of these people are not
    prepared for our rugged conditions,” an
    Ontario border patrolman said. “I found one
    carload without a single bottle of imported
    drinking water. They did have a nice little Napa
    Valley cabernet, though.”

    When liberals are caught, they’re sent back
    across the border, often wailing loudly that
    they fear retribution from conservatives.
    Rumors have been circulating about plans
    being made to build re-education camps where
    liberals will be forced to drink domestic beer
    and watch NASCAR races.

    In recent days, liberals have turned to
    ingenious ways of crossing the border. Some
    have been disguised as senior citizens taking
    a bus trip to buy cheap Canadian prescription
    drugs. After catching a half- dozen young
    vegans in powdered wig disguises, Canadian
    immigration authorities began stopping buses
    and quizzing the supposed senior-citizens
    about Perry Como and Rosemary Clooney to
    prove that they were alive in the ’50s. “If they
    can’t identify the accordion player on The
    Lawrence Welk Show, we become very
    suspicious about their age,” an official said.

    Canadian citizens have complained that the
    illegal immigrants are creating an organicbroccoli
    shortage and are renting all the
    Michael Moore movies. “I really feel sorry for
    American liberals, but the Canadian economy
    just can’t support them,” an Ottawa resident
    said. “How many art-history majors does one
    country need?”

    In an effort to ease tensions between the
    United States and Canada , Vice President
    Biden met with the Canadian ambassador
    Gary Doer and pledged that the administration
    would take steps to reassure liberals. A source
    close to President Obama said, “We’re going
    to have some Paul McCartney and Peter, Paul
    & Mary concerts. And we might even put some
    endangered species on postage stamps. The
    President is determined to reach out,” he said.
