Standard Hospital Procedure


“I’m afraid I’m the bearer of bad news,”

he said as he surveyed the worried faces.



“The only hope left for your loved one

at this time is a brain transplant.

It's an experimental procedure,

very risky, but it is the only hope.

Insurance will cover the procedure,

but you will have to pay for the Brain.”



The family members sat silent

as they absorbed the news.

After a time, someone asked,

“How much will a brain cost?”



The doctor quickly responded,

“$5,000 for a Democrat's brain;

$200 for a Republican's brain.”



The moment turned awkward.



Some of the Democrats

actually had to 'try'

to not smile,

avoiding eye contact

with the Republicans.



A man unable to control his curiosity,

finally blurted out the question

everyone wanted to ask...



“Why is the Democrat's brain

so much more

than a Republican's brain?”



The doctor smiled at the childish innocence

and explained to the entire group...

“It's just standard pricing procedure.

We have to price the Republicans' brains

a lot lower because they're used.”
