The "him" she referred to was Bush, not Obama.

Chuck and the Donkey... [KLP Note: The deveeeel made me do it....] <ggg> Young Chuck moved to Texas and bought a Donkey from a farmer for $100. The farmer agreed to deliver the Donkey the next day. The next day he drove up and said, 'Sorry son, but I have some bad news, the donkey died.' Chuck: 'Well, then just give me my money back.' farmer: 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.' Chuck: 'OK, then, just bring me the dead donkey.' farm er: 'What ya gonna do with him? Chuck: 'I'm going to raffle him off.' farmer: 'You can't raffle off a dead donkey!' Chuck: 'Sure I can, Watch me.. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.' A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, 'What happened with that dead donkey?' Chuck said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars apiece and made a profit of $898.00.' The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?' Chuck said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.' Chuck now works for the government as a top adviser on the Bailout Plan.
