Is this a great barnyard or what?

Ok, this is another email I received that I want to share. Some who read it will think there is some wisdom here--and some won't:

Is This A Great Barnyard or What???
Once upon a time, on a farm in North Carolina , there was a
Little Red Republican Hen who scratched about the barnyard until she
uncovered quite a few grains of wheat.

She called all of her Democrat neighbors together and said, 'If we plant
this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?'

'Not I,' said the Democrat. cow.

'Not I,' said the Democrat. duck.

'Not I,' said the Democrat. pig.

'Not I,' said the Democrat. goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red Rep. hen, and so she
did. The wheat grew very tall and ripened into golden grain.

'Who will help me reap my wheat?' asked the little red Rep. hen.

'Not I,' said the Democrat.duck.

'Out of my classification,' said the Democrat. pig.

'I'd lose my seniority,' said the Democrat. cow.

'I'd lose my unemployment compensation,' said the Democrat.
goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen, and so she did.

At last it came time to bake the bread.

'Who will help me bake the bread?' asked the little red hen.

'That would be overtime for me,' said the cow.

'I'd lose my welfare benefits,' said the duck.

'I'm a dropout and never learned how,' said the pig.

'If I'm to be the only helper, that's discrimination,' said the
goose.

'Then I will do it by myself,' said the little red hen.

She baked five loaves and held them up for all of her neighbors to see.
They wanted some and, in fact, demanded a share. But the little red hen
said, 'No, I shall eat all five loaves.'

'Excess profits!' cried the cow. (Nancy Pelosi)

'Capitalist leech!' screamed the duck. (Barbara Boxer)

'I demand equal rights!' yelled the goose. (Jesse Jackson)

The pig just grunted in disdain. (Ted Kennedy)

And they all painted 'Unfair!' picket signs and marched around and around
the little red hen, shouting obscenities.

Then a government agent came. He said to the little red hen,
'You must not be so greedy.'

'But I earned the bread,' said the little red hen.

'Exactly,' said the agent. 'That is what makes our free enterprise
system so wonderful. Anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants.
But under our modern government regulations, the productive workers must
divide the fruits of their labor with those who are lazy and idle.'

And they all lived happily ever after, including the little red hen, who
smiled and clucked, 'I am grateful, for now I truly understand.'

But her neighbors became quite disappointed in her. She never again baked
bread because she joined the 'party' and got her bread free. And all the
Democrats smiled. 'Fairness' had been established. Individual initiative
had died, but nobody noticed; perhaps no one cared...so long as there was
free bread that 'the rich' were paying for.

Nancy Pelosi wants to increase the taxes on the 'wealthy' by 40% and tax
all the savings (401k, Roth IRA, et.al.) on those of us who were smart
enough to save and who worked hard enough that we could. Even worse, she
wants to 'GIVE' all the money she takes from those who worked so hard, to
the 'illegals and those on welfare in the U.S. , so they can have a good
life'. Hummmmm, does that sound like the story we just heard or what?

Barack Obama agrees 100% with Nancy Pelosi's large TAX plan and also
wants to take more money from those who have worked all their lives, so
they can use it to pay for health care for those who have not worked hard
or didn't save. He also doesn't want us to become self-sufficient in
energy production (Democrats have prevented us from drilling for oil and
natural gas on U.S. soil or off U.S. shores for about 25 years), doesn't
want us to build refineries, doesn't want us to build nuclear energy
plants, and doesn't want windmills in key Dem. areas of the U.S. ,BUT,
doesn't have a plan to help our energy problems.

Bill Clinton is getting $12 million for his memoirs.

Hillary got $8 million for hers. That's $20 million for the memories
from two people, who for eight years repeatedly testified, under oath,
that they couldn't remember anything.

IS THIS A GREAT BARNYARD OR WHAT? Yeah. If you can avoid stepping in
the crap

A year or so ago we went to a restaurant. It sticks out in my mind because we don't eat out very often. Our waitress was a very good one and we tipped her well. Guess what???? Her tip went into a big jar to be shared by all :mad: I talked to the manager to see if she could keep all of our tip for herself. NOPE. We no longer go there.

It ticks me off that the hard workers of America have the lazies on their backs. :mad: :mad: :mad:

Hanta, don't you know they're not lazy, they're just victims of circumstance. The government has failed them by not providing enough programs to teach them job skills, "the man" is keeping them down, they had to join a gang, their parents were alcoholics.... None of it is their fault, they've just been victimized.

That's a pretty common practice. Since you don't eat out alot that may be why you noticed it.


Was there a gratuity already built into your final ck? This is normal practice at any" high end " eating establishment, usually anywhere from 13% to 20% of the total..

90% of the time now a gratuity is automatically placed on your ck and anything extra you might leave on the table, such as your tip, is then divided among the waitstaff.

What the waitstaff gets of the gratuity is worked out as compared to how many ' tops' they work and placed onto their final ck. That way the grat's are dispersed as to whomever works the most ' tops' get the largest part of the grat's.

The " tips" usually go into a ' beer fund'!!! :wink:

What I do not understand is,why call the others lazy...She,according to the story was the only one that served these people ,maybe the other workers work just as hard or harder, then her...Some of you people on here are the most judgemental people i have every heard tell of....

You are right on that part. I might not know if the others are lazy or not.

But if I get really good service, how do I thoroughly reward the person who gives me that satisfying service?

When the libs have nothing, they have to resort to making wild accusations of multiples. You are all mouth and no substance. Where's the denial of socialism, nope not there.

Larry let Nonothing have his moment in the sun by his thoughts that we are the same person, Even one of the moderators told me to just ignore him because THEY know the truth and that is all that matters, in this case
