Here's Why You Should Vote Republican...

My favorite email this week offers a good explanation of how Democrats will screw up our economy if we elect Obama, especially if we also re-elect our Democratic Congress.  Enjoy!

"Once upon a time, on a farm in Virginia , there was a little red hen who scratched about the barnyard until she uncovered quite a few grains of wheat.
 
She called all of her Democrat neighbors together and said, 'If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?'
 
'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.   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, 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?"

Should I Vote Democrat or Republican? Be Careful How You Vote!

This is my favorite email of the week.  And with the 2008 Presidential election right around the corner, this story has two great lessons we should all definitely remember!

Awsop's Favle told and retold.....

OLD VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed.  The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.

MORAL OF THE STORY:  Be responsible for yourself!

MODERN VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter.

The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.

Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving.  CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast.

How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."

Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome."  Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake.  Nancy Pelosi & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.

Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity & Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer.

The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.  Hillary gets her former employer, the Rose Law Firm, to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a jury comprised of single-parent welfare recipients.  The ant loses the case.

The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it.

The ant has disappeared in the snow.  The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood.

MORAL OF THE STORY:  Be careful how you vote.

It's a Hillary Clinton - Left Wing Conspiracy!

Here's another Hillary joke I received in an email...I think I could read Hillary jokes all day!

Hillary Clinton goes to a primary school to talk about the world.  After her talk, she offers question time.  One little boy puts up his hand, and the Senator asks him what his name is.

"Kenny," came the reply.

"And what is your question, Kenny?"

"I have three questions, Ma-am:

• First - whatever happened to your medical health care plan?
• Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
• And third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?"

..Just then the bell rings for recess.  Hillary Clinton informs the kiddies that they will continue after recess.  When they resume Hillary says, "Okay where were we?  Oh, that's right, question time.  Who has a question?" This time a different little boy puts his hand up; Hillary points him out and asks him what his name is.

"Lonnie," he said.

"And what is your question?"

"I have five questions:

• First - whatever happened to your medical health care plan?
• Second - why would you run for President after your husband shamed the office?
• Third - whatever happened to all those things you took when you left the White House?
• Fourth - why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early?
• And fifth - what happened to Kenny?"

ABC's 'Path to 9/11' Movie Sucked

Okay, so I didn't see the first part of the movie on Sunday night, but I was okay with missing the Clinton years (I already lived through them once, and once is MORE than enough!).  But I did watch during the Bush years last night and I don't see what all the fuss was about.  To me, the right should have been more bothered by this movie than the Democrats.  Like anything else on ABC, I thought the always present liberal bias was definitely there.

I didn't like the fact that this movie portrayed Dick Cheney as a wrinkly old angry man.  Okay, we know the guy's old but come on!  I was also bothered by the little poke the movie made at Bush's war on terrorist financing.  I think stopping terrorist financing is extremely important and has probably been a huge part of the reason we haven't been attacked again since 9/11.  But then, I already agreed with him and didn't need convincing...so I'm sure most liberals who watched missed the boat on that subject as usual.

Overall, I thought the movie pretty much sucked.  I almost fell asleep several times.  I will say I think the movie definitely made the case for President Bush's so-called 'eavesdropping programs' as well as the need to secure our border.   I just hope that the people who watched can see the connection between 9/11 and illegal immigration.  If immigration laws were enforced, perhaps the World Trade Center would still be standing and thousands of Americans would still be alive.

I'm no movie critic, but I give both ABC and their 9/11 movie a big "L" for "LOSER"!

Hillary Clinton or Bill Clinton - Who's Worse?
