    I received the following in an email and thought it worth sharing.

    I will leave it to the "Tea Party Republicans" to provide their own word games to address the rob from the rich to give to the poor socialist Democrats that want to bankrupt America.

    That one sentence of factual substance there has been well documented throughout this forum, and throughout our nation. But thanks for reminding those of us who may have simply forgotten obama's message to Joe the plumber on live TV. :puke:

    While not a word game here's a political funny.

    President Obama was out jogging and came across a little girl trying to give away a kitten. He stopped and the little girl asked if he wanted the kitten and added, "The kitten is a Democrat." The President declined.

    A two days later he went jogging again and there was the little girl still trying to give away the kitten. The President was impressed and decided to take the kitten and mentioned to the little girl that he was taking the kitten because it was a Democrat.

    The little girl responded, "The kitten is now a Republican."

    The President, puzzled, asked, "The kitten was a Democrat two days ago and now is a Republican? How do you know that?"

    The little girl replied, "Two days ago the kitten's eyes were closed but now they're open which is why it became a Republican."

    The English language has some wonderfully anthropomorphic collective nouns for the various groups of animals.
    We are all familiar with a Herd of cows, a Flock of chickens, a School of fish and a Gaggle of geese.
    However, less widely known is a Pride of lions, a Murder of crows (as well as their cousins the rooks and ravens), an Exaltation of doves and, presumably because they look so wise, a Parliament of owls.

    Now consider a group of Baboons. They are the loudest, most dangerous, most obnoxious, most viciously aggressive and least intelligent of all primates. And what is the proper collective noun for a group of baboons?

    Believe it or not ....... a Congress!

    I guess that pretty much explains the things that come out of Washington!

    The Weather Channel says yesterday's east coast earthquake was caused by an unknown fault line running under D.C. and through Virginia. It is now being called Obama's Fault, though Obama will say it's really Bush's Fault. Other theories are that it was the founding fathers rolling over in their graves or that what we all believed to be an earthquake was actually the effects of a 14.6 trillion dollar check bouncing in Washington.
