"I recently asked my neighbors' little girl what she wanted to be when she
grows up. She said she wanted to be a President. 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 with
pride 'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to wait
until you're a President to do that! You can come over to my house to mow
the lawn, pull weeds, trim my hedge, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take
you over to 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."
