Not too soon, but emblematic of the misdirection of the foes of this effort.

Quite simply, we all would like to get more from the government in services than we pay for in taxes, and power-hungry shysters have been willing to encourage and (temporarily) indulge us.

In my experience people generally want govenment to spend less on other people.

Not a picture, but still funny.
The Queen's Riddle * Barack Obama met with the Queen of England. He asked her, "Your Majesty, how do you run such an efficient government? Are there any tips you can give to me?" * "Well," said the Queen, "The most important thing is to surround yourself with intelligent people." * Obama frowned, and* then asked, "But how do I know the people around me are really intelligent?" * The Queen took a sip of tea and replied,* "Oh, that's easy: you just ask them to answer an intelligent riddle." The Queen then pushed a button on her intercom and said, "Please send Tony Blair in here, would you?" * Tony Blair walked into the room and said, "Yes, Your Majesty?" * The Queen smiled and said, "Answer me this please, Tony,your mother and father have a child.* It is not your* brother and it is not your sister. Who is it?" * Without* pausing for a moment, Tony Blair answered, "That would be me."* "Yes! very good," said the Queen. * Obama went back home to ask Joe Biden, his Vice President, the same question. "Joe, answer this for me. Your mother and your father have a child. Its not your brother and its not your sister. Who is it?" * "I'm not sure," said Biden. "Let me get back to you on that one."* He went to his advisers and asked every one, but none could give him an answer. * Finally, Biden ran in to Sarah Palin while eating out one night. * Biden asked, "Sarah, can you answer this for me? Your mother and father have a child and its not your brother or you sister. Who is it?" * Sarah Palin answered right back, "That's easy, its me!"* Biden smiled, and said, "Thanks!" Then he went back to speak with Obama. "Say, I did some research and I have the answer to that* riddle. ------ Its Sarah Palin." * Obama got up, stomped over to Biden, and angrily yelled into his face, "No you idiot! Its Tony Blair!"

Or, for accuracy:
The Queen's Riddle * Barack Obama met with the Queen of England (and Scotland and Wales and Canada and Australia and...). He asked her, "Your Majesty, how do you run such an efficient government? Are there any tips you can give to me?" * "I have no idea," said the Queen, "it's fuck all to do with me." |
