Meet Hugh Topian, your Progressive Liberal friend! He will help you make the transition from hateful, heartless Republican to open-minded and progressive Liberal. Hugh Topian says that people on wellfare should NEVER be referred to as wellfare recipients because this term can be very divisive and hurtful! Like a good Liberal, Hugh Topian came up with the term "Public Investment Recipient". In Hugh Topian's Liberal world, no one should ever be offended and we all should be very careful not to use terms that may actually hurt other people's feelings.

But what about short people? Oh, goodness gracious, how could I have been so (unintentionally) offensive in my speech? What I meant to say was, "Who's looking out for the vertically challenged?" There...that's better!
