I recently asked my friend's little girl what she wanted to be when she grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there, so I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?'
She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.'
Her parents beamed.
'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to wait until you're President to do that. Have the homeless guy come over to my rich neighborhood on the easily available public transportation that we don't have and mow my lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll give him $50.
"Sure, he'll still be homeless and in need of so many other things and, SURE, $50 a day is far from a living wage in America in 2009, which is why I have my lawn done by illegal aliens who won't complain but about whom I then blog viciously in a totally hypocritical way, but . . . Welcome to the Republican Party!"
The sweet little girl looked up at me all wide-eyed and innocent and said, "Do0d, are you on Oxycontin or something, you fat, overpriveleged blowhard?"
All I could answer was, "Welcome to the Republican Party!"
She went on, "Clearly, you clueless dittohead piece of flatulent trash, most of those homeless people are obviously mentally ill! Why are they out polluting our streets and not in institutions where they belong?"
"Welcome to the Republican Party," I answered weakly.
"You see, they used to be in institutions, but then an Alzheimer's impaired ex-B actor became president -- Welcome to the Republican Party! -- and threw them all out on the streets to save money. Of course, it didn't save money and he ran up the largest government deficits ever to that point (except for WWII) until the next Republican president topped them and then the next Republican president got us into even more debt, but, hey . . .
Welcome to the Republican Party!
Then I told her that if she gets raped by her Republican Uncle and her pregnancy could well cause her death, she HAS to have the baby anyway because Yahweh sez so!
Her parents still aren't speaking to me
