Lets have both - Politics and Humor - as if it is possible to have the former without the latter
Another Carlinism - reality + common sense = comedy
Political Joke
A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered altitude & spotted a man 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 tok out his portable GPS & replied, "You're in a hot air balloon, aproximately 30 feet above the ground, at an elevation of 2346 feet abofe sea level. You're at 31 Degrees 14.97 minutes north latitude, & 100 Degrees 49.09 minutes west longitude."
She rolled her eyes & 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 make of your imformation, & I'm still lost, frankly you have not been much help to me."
The man smiled & replied, "You must be a democrat."
"I am" replied the balloonist. "How did you know?"
"Well," the man said, "you don't know where you are, or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a great quantity of hot air. You made a promise you have no idea how to keep, & you expect me to solve your problem. You are in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but somehow you now feel it's my fault."
