Priceless…

I recently asked my friend’s little girl what she

wanted to be when she grows up. 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 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 now and mow

the lawn, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, 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 $50?

I said, Welcome to the Republican Party.

Her parents still aren’t speaking to me.
