A Parable:


Recommended Posts

I was talking to a friend of mine's little girl, and 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 home les s people."

"Wow - what a worthy goal." I told her, "You don't have to wait until you're President to do that. You can come over to my house mow the lawn, pull weeds, then sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. When you're finished I'll take you over to the grocery store where the home les s guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward food or a new house."

She thought that over for a few seconds 'cause she's only 6. And while her Mom glared at me, she looked me straight in the eye and asked, "Why doesn't the home les s guy come over and do the work, and you can just pay him the $50?"

And I said, "Welcome to the Republican Party."

Her folks still aren't talking to me.
