Jim Dandy: That's the question I have too. It will be interesting to see how this one plays out. She's very popular with the left but she seems to be losing some support even in the media.
It's the Coyote Principle, folks. It's what separates common sense from liberalism.
BEHOLD:
CALIFORNIA
The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks the Governor's dog, then bites the Governor.
1. The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie 'Bambi' and then realizes he should stop because the coyote is only doing what is natural.
2. He calls animal control. Animal Control captures the coyote and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it.
3. He calls a veterinarian....the vet collects the dead dog and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases.
4. The Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and on getting his bite wound bandaged.
5. The running trail gets shut down for 6 months while Fish & Game conducts a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is now safe.
6. The Governor spends $50,000 in state funds implementing a 'coyote awareness program' for residents of the area.
7. The State Legislature spends $ 2 million to study how to better treat rabies and how to permanently eradicate the disease throughout the world.
8. The Governor's security agent is fired for not stopping the attack. The State spends $150,000 to hire and train a new agent with additional special training re: the nature of coyotes.
9. PETA protests the coyote's relocation and files a $5 million suit against the State.
TEXAS:
The Governor of Texas is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks his dog.
1. The Governor shoots the coyote with his State-issued pistol and keeps jogging. The Governor has spent $ 0.50 on a .45 ACP hollow point cartridge.
rod03801: I so agree. Hillary would be so bad for our country. I'd like to get rid of most of those in Washington. Most do what's right for their careers and not what's good for the people they represent.
Vikings: Just trying to spice up this dead board. BTW, if you keep moving your eyes back and forth like that you'll get a headache. <---this works too! I've tried it!
PaoloRus: Most of the best whiskeys are 12 years old or older. Indeed, some very good ones are 40 years old. So you can happily keep drinking for quite a few more years yet.
I still think we should dig a moat along the Mexican border. Take all the dirt to Louisiana and raise the flood stage to a appropriate level then capture the alligators in Florida and put them in the moat. Seems like it would solve some problems.
Papa Zoom: If you are a citizen of Afghanistan I will refund your black rook payment (offer expires 1 year from my notice of presidency) Otherwise you'll have to ask your president. Good luck with that.
