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. So then 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.'
Since she is only 6, she thought that over for a few seconds.
While her Mom glared at me, 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.
Out of the mouths of babes! Awesome!!
