Hello, All.

As received in email:

IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT?????

"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.  She planted her crop, and the wheat grew very tall and ripened
into golden grain "Who will help me reap my wheat?" asked the
little red hen.

"No 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, they DEMANDED a share!  But the little red
hen said,
"No, I shall eat all five loaves by myself!"

"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, and shouted obscenities at her.

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 because 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?
