Dear Serious Citizens,
One sunny day in 2005 an old man approached the White House from across Pennsylvania Avenue, where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to the U.S. Marine standing guard and said, “I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.”
The Marine looked at the man and said, “Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.”
The old man said, “Okay” and walked away.
The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to the same Marine, “I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.” The Marine again told the man, “Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.” The man thanked him and, again, just walked away.
The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the very same U. S. Marine, saying “I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.”
The Marine, understandably agitated at this point, looked at the man and said, “Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak to Mr. Bush. I've told you already that Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no longer resides here. Don't you understand?”
The old man looked at the Marine and said, “Oh, yes, I understand. I just love hearing it.”
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said, “See you tomorrow.”

Two alligators were sitting at the side of the swamp. The smaller one turned to the bigger one and said, “I can't understand how you can be so much bigger 'n me. We're the same age, we was the same size as kids. I just don't get it.”
“Well,” said the big 'gator, “What you been eatin', boy?”
“Republicans, same as you,” replied the small 'gator.
“Hmm. Well, where do ya catch 'em?”
“Down at 'tother side of the swamp near the parkin' lot by Boudreaux's.”
“Same here. Hmm. How do you catch 'em?”
“Well, I crawls up under one of them Lexuses and waits fer someone to unlock the door. Then I jumps out, grabs 'em on the leg, shake the shit out of 'em, and eats 'em! ”
“Ah!” says the big alligator, “I think I see your problem. You ain't gettin' any real nourishment.”
“See, by the time you get done shakin' the bullshit out of a Republican, there ain't nothin' left but lips and a briefcase!”
