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,"
