I want to be president someday!
I was talking to a friend of mine's little girl the other day . I asked her what she wanted to be when she grew up and she replied, 'I want to be President!'
Both of her parents are liberal Democrats and were standing there. I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you would do?'
She replied, 'I'd give houses to all the homeless 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 and mow, pull weeds, and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50 . Then I'll take you over to the grocery store where this homeless guy hangs out, and you can give him the $50 to use toward a new house.'
She thought that over for a few seconds. 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?'
And I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'
Her folks still aren't talking to me.
