I showed this around my office, and only the Democrats laughed?

I remember a day with the Irish laughed at Pat and Mike jokes, blondes laughed at blond jokes, Blacks and Italians laughed at themselves as well. And hell, Democrats have always laughed at themselves--look at who we elect?

But apparently Republicans have been conceived without passing on the humor gene. Not only can't Repubs laugh at themselves, a joke about neo-cons, or anything making fun on the Bush administration; but they feel an absolute obligation to defend any and everything done by any member of the administration.

And, borrowing from football terms the normal defense is usually accompanied by an offensive attack directed at Ted Kennedy, Hilary, or Tom's favorite; "can you see what -------would have been like if Al Gore were president?"

Question: are all Republicans really constipated?
