How Politics Works

[Bouncing Bill 81]

  MY SON WAS FLUNKING OUT OF COLLEGE SO I TOLD HIM, "YOU WILL MARRY THE GIRL I CHOOSE."

HE SAID, "NO."

 

I TOLD HIM, "SHE IS BILL GATES' DAUGHTER."

HE SAID, "YES."

 

I CALLED BILL GATES AND SAID, "I WANT YOUR DAUGHTER TO MARRY MY SON."

BILL GATES SAID, "NO."

 

I TOLD BILL GATES, "MY SON IS THE CEO OF THE WORLD BANK."

BILL GATES SAID, "OK."

 

I CALLED THE PRESIDENT OF THE WORLD BANK AND ASKED HIM TO MAKE MY SON THE CEO.

HE SAID, "NO."

 

I TOLD HIM, "MY SON IS BILL GATES' SON-IN-LAW."

HE SAID, "OK."

 

AND THAT'S EXACTLY HOW POLITICS WORKS.

 

And thus, began the practice of hiring morons to work in influential

positions of government.

This practice remains unbroken to this day.
