Presidential kittens
This puts it all in perspective.
A pretty little girl named Suzy wasstanding on the sidewalk in front of her home.. Next to her was abasket containing a number tiny creatures; in her hand was a signannouncing FREE KITTENS.
Suddenly a line of big black cars pulled up beside her. Out of the lead car stepped a tall, grinning man..
"Hi there, little girl, I'm President Obama. What do you have in the basket?" he asked.
"Kittens." little Suzy said.
How old are they? asked Obama.
Suzy replied, "They're so young, their eyes aren't even open yet."
"And what kind of kittens are they?"
"Democrats," answered Suzy with a smile.
Obamawas delighted.. As soon as he returned to his car, he called his PRchief and told him about the little girl and the kittens. Recognizingthe perfect photo op, the two men agreed that the president shouldreturn the next day, and, in front of the assembled media, have thegirl talk about her discerning kittens. Sothe next day, Suzy was again standing on the sidewalk with her basketof "FREE KITTENS" when another motorcade pulled up, this time followedby vans from ABC, NBC, CBS and CNN. Cameras and audio equipment were quickly set up ... then Obama got out of his limo and walked over to little Suzy.
"Hello, again," he said, "I'd love it if you would tell all my friends out there what kind of kittens you're giving away."
"Yes sir," Suzy said. "They're Republicans."
Taken by surprise, the president stammered, "But ... but ... yesterday, you told me they were DEMOCRATS."
Little Suzy smiled and said ...
"I know ... But today, they have their eyes open."
