How Politics Works
email from a friend | 9/1/2018 | unknown

Posted on 09/01/2018 4:30:05 AM PDT by sodpoodle

I TOLD MY SON, "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 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 dumb asses to work in influential positions of government . The practice is unbroken to this day.

If you didn’t like that one here’s another;)

Frequency of sexual activity of senior males depends on where they were born.

Statistics just released from The United Nations Board of Health revealed:

North American men between 60 and 80 years of age, will on average, have sex two to three times per week, whereas Japanese men, in exactly the same age group, will have sex only once or twice per year, if they are lucky.

This has been very upsetting news to me and most of my buddies at the golf club as none of us had any idea that we were Japanese.

The one interesting thing we have learned from all this is that “somebody” is able to send tens of millions if not hundreds of millions of dollars (actually BILLIONS of dollars on pallets in C-141s) on a world tour where the “right people” can carve off a piece for themselves. Remember the email Podesta sent his sister? How many of you get an email like that? “Oh, by the way, I put $5 million in your Vanguard account...”?

And that's exactly how politics works.

Since president and CEO are the same, how can the president make someone a CEO?

Maybe you called the chairman?

Didn’t mean to deconstruct your joke.

Well, okay, maybe I did.

Sounds like using one lie to cover another ,but sooner or later some truth may come into the equation & mess everything up. I guess that’s what we have now,come to think of it.

****What’s with the all caps?

To answer your questions: A dear old friend sends me emails and I cut and paste. Not a techie - just an old gray mare.

Hope you enjoy them - just trying to lighten up the days of MSM’s biased hatred of our President and causing much mental distress.
