NOT POLITICALLY CORRECT, BUT SO TRUE OF MANY OF OUR LEGISLATORS<\/p>\n
The following political jab has too much truth to it for comfort. Where are the heroes who put country before their own greed; where are the Jimmy Stewarts going to Washington today to make a difference and not be corrupted by the political machine? Are we and especially our politicians still \u201cunder God\u201d or under the reign of hypocrisy, pork barrel politics, and selling out country and each other out? Just my late night ruminations . . .<\/p>\n
An Indian walks into a cafe with a shotgun in one hand and pulling a male buffalo with the other. <\/p>\n
He says to the waiter: "Want coffee." blasts the buffalo with the shotgun, causing parts of the animal to splatter everywhere and then just walks out. <\/p>\n
The next morning the Indian returns. He has his shotgun in one hand, pulling another male buffalo with the other. He walks up to the counter and says to the waiter: "Want coffee." The waiter says, "Whoa, Chief! We’re still cleaning up your mess from yesterday. What was all that about, anyway?" The Indian smiles and proudly says, "Training for position in United States Congress. Come in, drink coffee, shoot the bull, leave mess for others to clean up, disappear for rest of day." <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
