I recently asked my frie.nds' little girl what she wanted to be when
she grows up She said she wanted to be President of the United States.
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. You can come over to my house and mow the
lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my driveway, and I'll pay you $50. Then
I'll take you over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs
out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house."

She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight
in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do
the work, and you can just pay him the $5O?"

I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party,"


By now that's a really olde one.

It's also SPOT ON, isn't it? C'mon, fess up.


I wonder whether you have a soup
kitchen or food pantry in your town ...

Probably so. They're everywhere.
