Little Girl on an Airplane

A CALIFORNIA Congressman was seated next to a little girl on the

airplane leaving from DALLAS when the he turned to her and said,

'Let's talk. I've heard that flights go quicker if you strike up a conversation

with your fellow passenger.' The little girl, who had just opened her book,
closed it slowly and said to the total stranger, 'What would you like to talk about?'

'Oh, I don't know,' said the congressman.

'How about global warming or universal health care', and he smiles smugly.
OK, ' she said. 'Those could be interesting topics. But let me ask you a
question first. A horse, a cow, and a deer all eat the same stuff - grass.
Yet a deer excretes little pellets, while a cow turns out a flat patty,
and a horse produces clumps of dried grass. Why do you suppose that is?'
The California legislator, visibly surprised by the little girl's
intelligence , thinks about it and says, 'Hmmm, I have no idea.'
To which the little girl replies, 'Do you really feel qualified to discuss
global warming or universal health care when you don't know crap?

Heratage Foundation....Billions for Stimulus Zero Job Creation!

On February 11th, President Barack Obama stood on a windy hilltop in front of a dusty construction site in Fairfax County, Virginia, and promised the American people: "Here in Virginia, my plan will create or save almost 100,000 jobs, doing work at sites just like this one." Standing alongside current Democratic National Committee Chairman and former-Gov. Tim Kaine, the President continued: "Where we're standing, that could mean hundreds of construction jobs. And the benefits of jobs we create directly will multiply across the economy." Eleven months later, none of those promised jobs have been "created or saved." In fact, the Obama administration quietly announced last week that they were dropping the fraudulent "saved or created" terminology altogether.
