Politcal funny

A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost.
She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below.
She shouted to him,


"Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would
meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."


The man consulted his portable GPS and replied,
"You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet
above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet above sea level.
You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and
100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.


"She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican."


"I am," replied the man.. "How did you know?"


"Well," answered the balloonist, "everything you told me is
technically correct. But I have no idea what to do with your
information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you've not been much help
to me."


The man smiled and responded,
"You must be an Obama Democrat."


"I am," replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"


"Well," said the man, "you don't know where you
are or where you are going. You've risen to where you are,
due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise you
have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve
your problem. You're in exactly the same position you
were in before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault."

Fox News or CNN?

Ah, Fox and CNN. Where to start. Each one has its own bias. I was, for a very very long time an avid CNN viewer, literally the TV would be on CNN when I got home from work and stay there. Until the 2008 elections. I could not believe how much CNN backed the Democratic party. Almost to a point of annoyance. For every on RNC member on a panel there would be 2 DNC, usually one black man and one woman. The RNC person was almost always a white male. What I couldn't believe was the entire lack of respect for the opposing candidates on the Republican side. Now before you go "damn right-wing Republican" understand these FACTS: - Member of the Democratic Party - Libertarian - NRA Life Member What does that equal? Me. Not a single word up there said Republican. In fact, I've never voted for a presidential republican candidate. Maybe my lack of line loyalty allows me to have an open mind where others seen inherently sheltered. I have very strict guidelines for leaders; 1) be hon...
