#1 Via Michelle Malkin who is dream worthy, when not dreaming about family.

#2 I dream of flying regularly. Of course, in my dreams, I'm a B-1. I'm hoping to auto-upgrade to B-2 soon.

#5 So were were the improper b-tree traversal, endless loop or VM I/O dreams?

What about the horrible bandit Japanese illegal trucker radios blasting in the middle of the CDMA spectrum you are trying to defend?

Where are pointless corporate HR hell dreams where they only pretend to be interested in hiring folks for their sadistic pleasure?

What about the nanotech dreams?

Or the sci-fi alternate reality ones where your doppleganger is in a much more interesting life?

Maybe they should report dreams about a world that made common sense?

#7 Not surprisingly, Republicans had much more benign dreams about their commander-in-chief: "I was friends with George W. Bush and we were working together on his ranch. I was happy to be there."

That sounds like BS to me.

Conservatives largely reported using their "dream awareness" to wake themselves up from uncomfortable situations and nightmares, he said.

That's somewhat true for me.

This article seems to mix fantasy and reality. Must be a liberal scientist.

#8 I don't need a research grant to know the libs LIVE in a dream world constantly. No news here. Just another lib throwing a shit pie back in their face. Eat up Teddy, you bloated hog.

#9 "Among his findings, Kelly Bulkeley discovered that liberals are more restless sleepers and have a higher number of bizarre, surreal dreams"

"But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt. There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked." Isa. 57:20

#10 I wonder how many liberals dream about finding their bong?

Conservatives largely reported using their "dream awareness" to wake themselves up from uncomfortable situations and nightmares, he said.
No I use my awareness to assert my will in the dream. All of a sudden CrazyFool knows kung-fu, kicks ass and takes names....

#11 Forget about dreams. The world is a strange, scary place for liberals.

#12 hmmmm - the recurring ones where I show up late for final exams and forgot to study and can't find the room, or where I realize everyone else in school is dressed and I'm all of the sudden naked? Never had those. Nossiree

#13 Is this the conservative answer to the "liberals are more secure" study? :-)

If this is true, you should be able to infer with fairly good accuracy whether someone is liberal or conservative based on their answers to what kind of dreams they have. Except for the sex thing. :-) What do you suppose we won't be hearing about testing this hypothesis anytime soon (i.e.: Too bad this study is crap, too).

Have there been any studies done with separated twins on political leanings? That would be interesting to see if there is a biological component to liberal ~~madness~~ ~~cluelessness~~ ~~denial~~ leanings?

#15 I'm in luck here. I can't remember much of what happens when i'm awake, let alone when I'm asleep. And yes, it does make monogamy a lot more interesting.

#16 I dream of Bin Laden with just the towel on his head.

#17 I'll bet the sex discrepancy is a function of conservatives having a lower rate of admitting to having such dreams. And I say that as a conservative myself.

And then, using the Maureen Dowd Ellipsifier 3000:

"Kelly Bulkeley discovered that liberals...have a higher number of bizarre, surreal dreams"

And that's just their waking life!

#19 If I ever doubt if this is a dream or reality, i just remember that In my dreams I can fly.
In real life I can't.
(Dammit)
