OUR BARNYARD (Cons. Political funny)
A dear friend sent this to me recently....(sums up a few things nicely!) *smile*OUR BARNYARD"Who will help me plant my wheat?" said the little red hen. "Not I," said the cow."Not I," said the duck. "Not I," said the pig. "Not I," said the goose. "Then I will do it by myself," said the little red hen, and so she did. She planted her crop,stop smoking now, and the wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain. "Who will help me reap my wheat?" asked the little red hen. "Not I," said the duck.. "Out of my classification," said the pig. "I'd lose my seniority," said the cow. "I'd lose my unemployment compensation," said the goose. "Then I will do it by myself," said the little red hen, and so she did. At last it came time to bake the bread. "Who will help me bake the bread?" asked the little red hen. "That would be overtime for me," said the cow. "I'd lose my welfare benefits," said the duck. "I'm a dropout and never learned how," said the pig. "If I'm to be the only helper, that's discrimination," said the goose. "Then I will do it by myself," said the little red hen. She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see. They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen said, "No, I shall eat all five loaves." "Excess profits!" cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)"Capitalist leech!" screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer) "I demand equal rights!" yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson) The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy) And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around and around the little red hen, shouting obscenities. Then the farmer (Obama) came. He said to the little red hen, "You must not be so greedy." "But I earned the bread," said the little red hen. "Exactly," said Barack the farmer. "That is what makes our free enterprise system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. But under our modern government regulations,quit smoking now, the productive workers must divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle." And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who smiled and clucked, "I am grateful, for now I truly understand." But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again baked bread because she joined the 'party' and got her bread free. And all the Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had been established. Individual initiative had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one cared...so long as there was free bread that 'the rich' were paying for.. EPILOGUE Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs. Hillary got $8 million for hers. That's $20 million for the memories from two people, who for eight years repeatedly testified, under oath, that they couldn't remember anything. IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT? ____________________________________________________________________P.S. (Well, actually not so funny as people are being "taken in" by so-called "change") The ramifications to our children and grandchildren are so massive--that truly folks, we cannot let this die, we cannot any longer be complacent (complacency is a big part of what got us into this mess in the first place--ie let the government handle it and take care of us let's get some pride and ownership back) government office was never meant to be a career. People SERVED with LITTLE or no pay to better our nation...I encourage everyone to keep petitioning their elected officials and let them know your views...let them know that sucking us dry financially is a bad idea.Anyway yappity-yap....not really what the barnyard tale talked about specifically--but it is all about the government spending money that we don't have that will decimate our children and grandchildren's future. Obama is for education....really oh GOOD, well, then give the children incentive to WORK...quit giving them handouts. Plus what is the incentive when our children, (the next generation) will have to pay upwards of $180,000 in taxes in THEIR lifetime just to pay for the current administrations (so far) planned deficits (on top of the debt that is already there)....food for thought...xoxoxo hugs and have a great nosmo Saturday...katiem6y 2m quit
