Let me tell
you a joke:
A woman in a hot-air balloon
is lost, so she shouts to a man below, "Excuse me. I promised a friend I
would meet him, but I don’t know where I am."
"You’re at 31 degrees,
14.57 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west
longitude," he replies.
"You must be a
Democrat."
"I am. How did you
know?"
"Because everything you
told me is technically correct, but the information is useless, and I’m still
lost. Frankly, you’ve been no help."
"You must be a
Republican."
"Yes. How did you
know?"
"You’ve risen to where
you are due to a lot of hot air, you made a promise you couldn’t 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."
The problem
in the USA? This exact same joke is told the other way ‘round as well!
