Joke of the day from rec.humor.funny:

How many members of the Republican Party does it take to change a
light bulb?

Answer: TEN...

1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed,

2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb
needs to be changed,

3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb,

4. One to tell the nations of the world that they are either for
changing the light bulb or for eternal darkness,

5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the
new light bulb,

6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing
on a step ladder under the banner "Bulb Accomplished",

7. One administration insider to resign and in detail reveal how Bush
was literally "in the dark" the whole time,

8. One to viciously smear #7,

9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how John McCain
has had a strong light bulb-changing policy all along,

10. And finally, one to confuse Americans about the difference between
screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.

And after all is said and done, no one will notice that they never
actually managed to change the light bulb.

Minor point / question:

couldn't you have changed that story from a light bulb to fixing a wooden
door and tightening a loose hinge? It would make it more on topic.

Granted it would require more IQ from the ENTIRE inside the beltway
political culture to use a screwdriver, but so be it.

I did think it was funny as is, however. And Thank-you for not going for
the easy joke about someone assigned to be on the lookout for Gov. Palin,
her shotgun, and target practice. THANK-YOU.

Dick Cheney is the one who uses people for target practice. If he
hadn't dodged the draft, he might have learned how to keep his finger
off the trigger when he doesn't know what's in front of the gun.

The real question is will Palin go quail hunting with Cheney - OR -
will Cheny go caribou/moose hunting with Palin?

Either way, I'd rather go hunting with Cheney than to ride in Ted Kennedy's
car.

Hmm, I wonder if Kennedy could give Cheney
a lift to his next hunting trip....

Win-win all around...
