Have you ever considered; you might be the goat?

[4est_4est_Gump]

Ivan and Igor were two dirt-poor Russian peasants; same amount of land, same out buildings, same everything. Except for one thing. Igor had a goat.
One night Fairy Godmother came to Ivan and told him he could have any one wish he cared to make.
Ivan was a careful man and thought for a great while and then he said, "I wish Igor's goat would die."
That is the modern American liberal.

I bet Ish is now scratching his eyes over his.

Ish posted it years ago.



By mentioning it, he knew that is was an inside joke. Welcome to the inside.

I suppose the old cow politics joke works reading goat for cow. As much as it ever worked....

A CHRISTIAN DEMOCRAT: You have two cows. You keep one and give one to your neighbor.

A SOCIALIST: You have two cows. The government takes one and gives it to your neighbor.

AN AMERICAN REPUBLICAN: You have two cows. Your neighbor has none. So what[?QUOTE]

AN AMERICAN (CLASSIC) LIBERAL: I have two cows. From them I sell my neighbors milk and in the future beef. From them I will grow a herd and sell more cattle feeding more people. The only thing that can get in my way is milk/cattle theft. The only entity that can do that legally is a purely Democratic government.
