Yeah, at least P.J. was funny, and could take a ab at conservatives too (i say “was”, because i think he lost his funny some time ago).

I like another one of his definitions:

liberal: someone who’s happy to kill an unborn child but not a convicted murderer.

Note: this is not my position, but i still think it’s funny

Liberals are people who want to spend 5 billion to feed the world.  
Conservatives are peopel who want to spend 10 billion to blow it up.

Conservatives: the people who believe government doesn’t work, then get elected and prove it.

(Disclaimer: There is a corresponding “liberals” joke, also by P.J. O’Rourke, but I can’t find it at the moment.)

Oh, here’s one (slightly modified from an original by Will Rogers, to fit the Canadian context): I’m not a member of any organized political party; I’m a New Democrat.

A conservative is a liberal who’s been mugged.

Or, in the classic of Winston Churchill “If you’re a conservative at age 20, then you’re heartless. If you’re a liberal at 40, then you’re mindless.”

Conservatives and Liberals usually have the same beliefs about social policies - it’s just that Liberals have them thirty years earlier.

To complete this couplet:

A liberal is a conservative who’s been laid off; (or)

A liberal is a conservative who’s been falsely arrested.

Liberals are like a baby. Lots of noise at one end, and no sense of responsiblity at the other.

A conservative is a whiner who likes to whine about how much liberals whine.
