A Morning Joke

I figured that we all stay pretty serious all the time, but honestly, that's not my nature. So, I thought I would share a really funny joke with you, just to show that I'm not as serious all the time as some people might think. No matter what side of the political isle you're on, you're likely to find this joke very funny. Some days, I wake up and I don't quite want to be Malcolm X. Instead, I choose to be Bernie Mac.

Enjoy!

Why did the chicken cross the road?


BARACK OBAMA:
The chicken crossed the road because it was time for a CHANGE! The chicken wanted CHANGE!

JOHN MC CAIN:
My friends, that chicken crossed the road because he recognized the need to engage in cooperation and dialogue with all the chickens on the other side of the road.




HILLARY CLINTON:
When I was First Lady, I personally helped that little chicken to cross the road. This experienc e makes me uniquely qualified to ensure -- right from Day One! -- that every chicken in this country gets the chance it deserves to cross the road. But then, this really isn't about me.......


DR. PHIL:
The problem we have here is that this chicken won't realize that he must
first deal with the problem on 'THIS' side of the road before it goes
after the problem on the 'OTHER SIDE' of the road. What we need to do is
help him realize how stupid he's acting by not taking on his 'CURRENT'
problems before adding 'NEW' problems.

OPRAH:
Well, I understand that the chicken is having problems, which is why he
wants to cross this road so bad. So instead of having the chicken learn
from his mistakes and take falls, which is a part of life, I'm going to
give this chicken a car so that he can just drive across the road and
not live his life like the rest of the chickens.


GEORGE W. BUSH:
We don't really care why the chicken crossed the road. We just want to
know if the chicken is on our side of the road, or not. The chicken is
either against us, or for us. There is no middle ground here.

COLIN POWELL:
Now to the left of the sc reen, you can clearly see the satellite image
of the chicken crossing the road...

ANDERSON COOPER - CNN:
We have reason to believe there is a chicken, but we have not yet been
allowed to have access to the other side of the road.

JOHN KERRY:
Although I voted to let the chicken cross the road, I am now against it!
It was the wrong road to cross, and I was misled about the chicken's
intentions. I am not for it now, and will remain against it.


NANCY GRACE:
That chicken crossed the road becaus e he's GUILTY! You can see it in his
eyes and the way he walks.

PAT BUCHANAN:
To steal the job of a decent, hardworking American.

MARTHA STEWART:
No one called me to warn me which way that chicken was going. I had a
standing order at the Farmer's Market to sell my eggs when the price
dropped to a certain level. No little bird gave me any insider
information.

DR SEUSS:
Did the chicken cross the road? Did he cross it with a toad? Yes, the
chicken crossed the road, but why it crossed I've not been told.

ERNEST HEMINGWAY:
To die in the rain. Alone.

JERRY FALWELL:
Because the chicken was gay! Can't you people see the plain truth?'
That's why they call it the 'other side.' Yes, my friends, that chicken
is gay. And if you eat that chicken, you will become gay too. I say we
boycott all chickens until we sort out this abomination that the liberal
media white washes with seemingly harmless phrases like 'the other side.
That chicken should not be crossing the road. It's as plain and as
simple as that.

GRANDPA:
In my day we didn't ask why the chicken crossed the road. Somebody told
us the chicken crossed the road, and that was good enough.

BARBARA WALTERS:
Isn't that interesting? In a few moments, we will be listening to the
chicken tell, for the first time, the heart warming story of how it
experienced a serious case of molting, and went on to accomplish its
life long dream of crossing the road.

ARISTOTLE:
It is the nature of chickens to cross the road.

JOHN LENNON:
Imagine all the chickens in the world crossing roads together, in peace.

BILL GATES:
I have just released eChicken2008, which will not only cross roads, but
will lay eggs, file your important documents, and balance your check
book. Internet Explorer is an integral part of the Chicken. This new
platform is much more stable and will never cra...#@&&^(C% .........
reboot.

ALBERT EINSTEIN:
Did the chicken really cross the road, or did the road move beneath the
chicken?

BILL CLINTON:
I did not cross the road with THAT chicken. What is your definition of
chicken?

AL GORE:
I invented the chicken!

COLONEL SANDERS:
Did I miss one?

D ICK CHENEY:
Where's my gun?

AL SHARPTON:
Why are all the chickens white? We need some black chickens.

Barack Obama Denouncing Again, Quick thoughts

I woke up this morning to gobs of email from the lovers and haters of the piece I wrote supporting Father Michael Pfleger in the latest of Barack Obama's racial problems. I also read this morning that Senator Obama has denounced the Trinity United Church of Christ and all the individuals in that church who have supported him all these years. This reminds me of the superstar athlete who is told to leave "the hood" and not associate with friends and relatives who supported him when he was just a scrub. It was the love and support of the people of Illinois that got Obama's career going, I am not sure how I feel about his denunciation of his church home.

That led to some quick thoughts I have on the matter.

1) Why hasn't Hillary Clinton been asked to denounce any of her friends who speak strongly about race? In fact, didn't Condoleeza Rice say something racially controversial recently? Perhaps President Bush should be asked to start denouncing also. It seems to me that America simply wants to make sure that Barack Obama is not "too black to be President." This appears to be a social clensing, the same that many of us go through in middle class Black America.



2) Why doesn't Senator Obama just cut to the chase and denounce all of us? I think that might make things easier, since there are hundreds of thousands of African-Americans who agree wholeheartedly with Pastor Jeremiah Wright. It might seem that simply getting rid of the entire black community would give him fewer headaches. Black people are just too much damn trouble.

3) How would the Jews feel if America refused to acknowledge the holocaust? What if America had no desire to protect or support Israel from hostile forces in the middle east, claiming that anti-semitism is "just a myth" that they made up? I don't believe, for one second, that anti-semitism is a myth, but perhaps that puts things into context when understanding why African-Americans are so livid over America's lack of willingness to be honest about racism. America has not even apologized for the 400 year holocaust on black families, and they get angry when we bring it up. If this were done to the Jewish community, they would be outraged.

Those are my thoughts. I still stand by Jeremiah Wright, Father Michael Pfleger and Senator Barack Obama. They are my brothers in truth, and unlike the McCarthyists on the other side, they will end up on the right side of history.
