good joke
>OLD VERSION:
> >The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his >house and laying up supplies for the winter. > >The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and laughs and dances and plays the >summer away Come winter, the ant is warm and well fed. > >The grasshopper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold. > >MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself! > > >MODERN VERSION: > >The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his >house and laying up supplies for the winter. > >The grasshopper thinks he's a fool and laughs and dances and plays the >summer away. Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press >conference and demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and >well fed while others are cold and starving. > >CBS, NBC, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper >next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with >food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in >a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so? > >Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries >when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green." > >Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where the >news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome." Jesse then has >the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper's sake. > >Tom Daschle & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Peter Jennings that >the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for >an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his "fair share." > >Finally, the EEOC drafts the "Economic Equity and Anti-Grasshopper Act," >retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing >to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to >pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the >government. > >Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a defamation >suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of federal >judges that Bill appointed from a list of single-parent welfare recipients. > >The ant loses the case. > >The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the >ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be >the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't maintain it. >The ant has disappeared in the snow. The grasshopper is found dead in a >drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang >of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood. > >MORAL OF THE STORY: Vote Republican Got in e-mail from my friend... he loved it, despite the fact that he's democrat lol I dont have much love for repuclican party myself, but hey, this joke has got the point.
