That's a good one! If you were president, what would be the first thing you'd do?

Thanks to A.M.

THANKS AGAIN TO JERRY of ACT!, New York & Long Island Chapter

I recently asked my friend's little girl what she wanted to be when she     grows up. She said she wanted to be President some day. Both of her         Parents, liberal Democrats, were standing there.                                                                                                       I asked her, 'If you were President what would be the first thing you       would do?'?                                                                                                                                             She replied, 'I'd give food and houses to all the homeless people.                                                                                     Her parents beamed.                                                                                                                                     'Wow...what a worthy goal.' I told her, 'But you don't have to wait until   you're President to do that. You can come over to my house, mow the lawn,   pull weeds, and rake my yard, and I'll pay you $50. Then I'll take you     over to the grocery store where the homeless guy hangs out, and you can     give him the $50 to use toward food and a new house.'                                                                                                   She thought that over for a few seconds, then she looked me straight in     the eye and asked, 'Why doesn't the homeless guy come over and do the       work, and you can just pay him the $50?'                                                                                                               I said, 'Welcome to the Republican Party.'                                                                                                             Her parents still aren't speaking to me.
