A little political humor . . . A small boy asks his Dad, What is politics?" Dad says, "Well son, let me try to explain it this way: I'm the breadwinner of the family, so let's call me Capitalism. Your Mom, she's the administrator of the money, so we'll call her the Government. We're here to take care of your needs, so we'll call you the People. The nanny, we'll consider her the Working Class. And your baby brother, we'll call him the Future. Now, think about that and see if that makes sense. So the little boy goes off to bed thinking about what Dad has said. Later that night, he hears his baby brother crying, so he gets up to check on him. He finds that the baby has severely soiled his diaper. So the little boy goes to his parents' room and finds his mother sound asleep. Not wanting to wake her, he goes to the nanny's room. Finding the door locked, he peeks in the keyhole and sees his father in bed with the nanny. He gives up and goes back to bed. The next morning, the little boy says to his father, "Dad, I think I understand the concept of politics now." The father says, "Good, son, tell me in your own words what you think politics is all about". The little boy replies, "Well, while Capitalism is screwing the Working Class, the Government is sound asleep, the People are being ignored and the Future is IN DEEP SHIT

Stock Bull - LoD has a place here, in spite of comment. Although the "comment" was found strongly disagreeable by some on the thread, I'm sure LoD would take it back if he could. Further; the suggestion might be a bit strong that LoD drop out of the thread. He as well as yourself and others have been a strong asset and influence on this group. Anything less would diminish the quality of our thread. It is impossible and improbable to hold anyone to standards that we ourselves cannot maintain. I can't think of a single person I have met or known that can maintain a complete political correctness (PC). As hard as we may try to be proper in all things, none of us are perfect.
