[HT:PK]

I was talking to a friend of mine's little girl, and she said she wanted

to be President some day.

Both of her parents, liberal Democrats, were standing nearby when 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, weed eat,
and sweep my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you over to the
grocery store where the 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 'cause she's only 6. And 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.
