One day they went to her place and made love all afternoon. Exhausted, they fell asleep and woke up at 8 PM. The man hurriedly dressed and told his lover to take his shoes outside and rub them in the grass and dirt. He put on his shoes and drove home.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Where have you been?' his wife demanded. 'I can't lie to you,' he replied, 'I'm having an affair with my secretary. We had sex all afternoon.' She looked down at his shoes and said: 'You lying bastard! You've been playing golf!'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 2nd Affair&lt;br /&gt;A middle-aged couple had two beautiful daughters but always talked about having a son. They decided to try one last time for the son they always wanted. The wife got pregnant and delivered a healthy baby boy. The joyful father rushed to the nursery to see his new son. He was horrified at the ugliest child he had ever seen. He told his wife: 'There's no way I can be the father of this baby. Look at the two beautiful daughters I fathered! Have you been fooling around behind my back?' The wife smiled sweetly and replied: "No, not this time!'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The 3rd Affair&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A mortician was working late one night. He examined the body of Mr. Schwartz, about to be cremated,&lt;br /&gt;and made a startling discovery. Schwartz had the largest private part he had ever seen! 'I'm sorry Mr. Schwartz,' the mortician commented, 'I can't allow you to be cremated with such an impressive private part. It must be saved for posterity.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So, he removed it, stuffed it into his briefcase, and took it home. 'I have something to show you won't believe,' he said to his wife, opening his briefcase.

No matter how old I get, and no matter how long he's been out of the U.S. Navy, that's still an intimidating sight. As he approached me, his voice quivered as he said, "We saved that continent twice...how dare my president apologize for this country's arrogance." My grandpa is right. Americans need not apologize to the world for their arrogance; rather, Americans should apologize to their forefathers for the arrogance of their president. Barack Obama's first foreign trip as President of the United States has confirmed the naiveté so many of us feared during the election cycle. But worse than that, it has also demonstrated that our president suffers from either a complete misunderstanding of our heritage and history, or an utter contempt for it. Neither is excusable. Garnering cheers from the French of ALL people, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;President Obama declared, "In America, there is a failure to appreciate Europe's leading role in the world. Instead of celebrating your dynamic union and seeking to partner with you to meet common challenges, there have been times where America has shown arrogance and been dismissive, even derisive." Consider that Obama spoke these words just 500 miles from the beaches of Normandy, where the sand is still stained with 65-year-old blood of "arrogant Americans." Indeed, columnist Mark Whittington observes, "One should remind Mr. Obama and the Europeans how America has 'shown arrogance' by saving Europe from itself innumerable times in the 20th Century. World War I, World War II, the Cold War, and the wars in the Balkans were largely resolved by American blood, treasure, and leadership." But all that appears lost on the president's seemingly insatiable quest to mend fences he imagines have been tarnished by the bullish George W. Bush. If Obama wishes to continue trampling the presidential tradition of showing class to former office holders and publicly trash Bush for his own personal gain, so be it. But all Americans should make clear that no man – even if he is the president – will tarnish the legacy of those Americans who have gone before us. Ours is not a history of arrogance. It is a histor y of courage, self-sacrifice, and honor.When abusive monarchs repressed the masses, Americans resisted and overthrew them. When misguided policies led to the unjust oppression of fellow citizens, Americans rebelled and overturned them. When millions of impoverished and destitute wretches sought a new beginning, Americans threw open the door and welcomed them. When imperial dictators were on the march, Americans surrendered their lives to stop them. When communist thugs threatened world peace, Americans bled to defeat them. When an entire continent was overwhelmed with famine and hunger, Americans gave of themselves to sustain it. When terrorist madmen killed the innocent and subjugated millions, Americans led the fight to topple them.This is the legacy that generations of Americans have left. If President Obama seeks stronger relations with the world community, perhaps he should begin by reminding them of these very truths, rather than condemning his own countrymen on foreign shores.This "obsessive need to put down his own country," has caused blogger James Lewis to call President Obama a "stunningly IGNORANT man" who has evidently never spoken to a concentration camp survivor, a Cuban refugee, a boat person from Vietnam, a Soviet dissident, or a survivor of Mao's purges. Unfortunately, I can no longer bring myself to give Mr. Obama that benefit of the doubt. Not after looking at the pain in my grandpa's eyes... a man who still carries shrapnel in his body from his service to this country. As a student and teacher of history, I recognize that America has made mistakes... plenty of them, in fact. But one of the great things about our people has been their courage and humility in admitting and correcting those mistakes. God willing, they will prove that willingness again in four years and correct the mistake that is the presidency of Barack Obama.&lt;br /&gt;#####&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-5221421805231095658?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/5221421805231095658/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=5221421805231095658&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/5221421805231095658'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/5221421805231095658'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2009/04/and-now-we-apologize-to-our-southern.html' title='APOLOGIZE TO OUR SOUTHERN NEIGHBORS??'/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323937150073159539.post-8227950276693117797</id><published>2009-04-19T21:18:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-19T21:24:13.993-07:00</updated><title type='text'>THE DEA OFFICER</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;*A DEA officer stops at a ranch in Montana , &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;and talks with an old rancher.

Why am I carrying a loaded gun anyway, and what kind of message does this send to society and to my children? Is it possible he'd be happy with just killing me? Does he definitely want to kill me, or would he be content just to wound me? If I were to grab his knees and hold on, could my family get away while he was stabbing me? Should I call 9-1-1 ?

As of now, it's impossible to determine whether or not it's factual or simply an April Fools' Day joke.  (It is rather suspicious that the article is undated and shows no originating news source.)  IF the story is in fact true, it's proof again, not that it's needed, than total morons walk among us.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In Stuttgart, Germany, a court judge must decide on a case of honorable intentions in a situation where a man hired his neighbor to get his wife pregnant.It seems that Demetrius Soupolos, 29, and his former beauty queen wife, Traute, wanted a child badly, but Demetrius was told by a doctor that he was sterile.So, Soupolos, after calming his wife’s protests, hired his neighbor, Frank Maus, 34, to impregnate her.  Since Maus was already married and the father of two children, plus looked very much like Soupolos to boot, the plan seemed good.Soupolos paid Maus $2,500 for the job and for three evenings a week for the next six months, Maus tried desperately, a total of 72 different times, to impregnate Traute.When his own wife objected, he explained, "I don’t like this any more than you. I’m simply doing it for the money.  Try and understand."When Traute failed to get pregnant after six months, however, Soupolos was not understanding and insisted that Maus have a medical examination, which he did.The doctor’s announcement that Maus was also sterile shocked everyone except his wife, who was forced to confess that Maus was not the real father of their two children.Now Soupolos is suing Maus for breach of contract in an effort to get his money back, but Maus refuses to give it up because he said he did not guarantee conception, but only that he would give an honest effort.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-76157888820186266?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/76157888820186266/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=76157888820186266&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/76157888820186266'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/76157888820186266'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2009/04/sounds-like-government-program.html' title='SOUNDS LIKE A GOVERNMENT PROGRAM'/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323937150073159539.post-7610033952164030232</id><published>2009-04-13T16:11:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2009-04-13T16:13:22.202-07:00</updated><title type='text'>TEACHING MATH</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Fifty-twoYears of Math 1957 - 2009&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Last week I purchased a burger at Burger King for $1.58. The counter girl took my $ 2 and I was digging for my change when I pulled 8 cents from my pocket and gave it to her. She stood there, holding the nickel and 3 pennies, while looking at the screen on her register.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I sensed her discomfort and tried to tell her to just give me two quarters , but she hailed the manager for help. While he tried to explain the transaction to her, she stood there and cried. Why do I tell you this?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Because of the evolution in teaching math since the 1950s:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1. Teaching Math In 1950s&lt;br /&gt;A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of the price. What is his profit ?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. Teaching Math In 1960s&lt;br /&gt;A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is 4/5 of the price, or $80. What is his profit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. Teaching Math In 1970s&lt;br /&gt;A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $80.&lt;br /&gt;Did he make a profit?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. Teaching Math In 1980s&lt;br /&gt;A logger sells a truckload of lumber for $100. His cost of production is $80 and his profit is $20. Your assignment: Underline the number 20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. Teaching Math In 1990s&lt;br /&gt;A logger cuts down a beautiful forest because he is selfish and inconsiderate and cares nothing for the habitat of animals or the preservation of our woodlands. He does this so he can make a profit of $20. What do you think of this way of making a living? Topic for class participation after answering the question: How did the birds and squirrels feel as the logger cut down their homes? (There are no wrong answers, and if you feel like crying, it's ok. )&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;6. Teaching Math In 2009&lt;br /&gt;Un hachero vende una carretada de maderapara $100.

The terrorist's leader nodded to another terrorist who had studied the Western world and knew the music. He returned with some rag-tag musicians and played the song. Gibson was satisfied.Brian Williams said, 'I'm a reporter to the end. I want to take out my tape recorder and describe the scene here and what's about to happen. Maybe, someday, someone will hear it and know that I was on the job till the end.' The leader directed an aide to hand over the tape recorder and Williams dictated his comments. He then said, 'Now I can die happy.'The leader turned and said, 'And now, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;a title="http://mr.us/" href="http://mr.us/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Mr.US&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt; Marine, what is your final wish?''Kick me in the ass,' said the Marine.'What?' asked the leader, 'Will you mock us in your last hour?''No, I'm NOT kidding. I want you to kick me in the ass,'insisted the Marine.So the leader shoved him into the yard and kicked him in the ass.The Marine went sprawling, but rolled to his knees, pulled a9 mm pistol from inside his cammies and shot the leader dead. In the resulting confusion, he emptied his sidearm on six terrorists, with his knife he slashed the throat of one with an AK-47, which he took, and sprayed the rest of the terrorists killing another 11!In a flash, all of them were either dead or fleeing for their lives.As the Marine was untying Couric, Gibson and Williams, they asked him, 'Why didn't you just shoot them all in the first place? Why did you ask him to kick you in the ass?''What!?!' replied the Marine, 'and have you three ass holes report that I was the aggressor....?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-5226399642884724540?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/5226399642884724540/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=5226399642884724540&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/5226399642884724540'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/5226399642884724540'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2009/02/katie-couric-charlie-gibson-brian.html' title=''/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323937150073159539.post-7380525527010215160</id><published>2009-02-12T23:22:00.000-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-12T23:24:28.425-08:00</updated><title type='text'>THE HOME SCHOOLING CONUMDRUM</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;a guy was telling his buddy that he just found&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;out disturbing news...&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;his young son was having "inappropriate relations"&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;with his teacher.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;hearing that, the buddy kinda snickered n' lauhged &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;it off....saying thats the dream of all school boys.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;to which the father replied......&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#663333;"&gt;'yeah, but my son is home-schooled!!'&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-7380525527010215160?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/7380525527010215160/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=7380525527010215160&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/7380525527010215160'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/7380525527010215160'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2009/02/home-schooling-conumdrum.html' title='THE HOME SCHOOLING CONUMDRUM'/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323937150073159539.post-7230660799675990973</id><published>2009-02-10T00:15:00.001-08:00</published><updated>2009-02-10T00:21:12.032-08:00</updated><title type='text'>THE NEW PRESIDENTIAL LIBRARY</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Dear Fellow Constituent:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;The George W.

Here is your first question, the foreman said.  'Without using numbers, represent the number 9.'    'Without numbers?'  The Norwegian says, 'Dat's easy.' and proceeds to draw three trees. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;'What's this?' the boss asks.   'Vot! you got no brain?  Tree and tree and tree make nine,' says the Norwegian.    'Fair enough,' says the boss.  'Here's your second question.  Use the same rules, but this time the number is 99.'    The Norwegian stares into space for a while, then picks up the picture that he has just drawn and makes a smudge on each tree. 'Dar ya go.'  &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The boss scratches his head and says, 'How on earth do you get that to represent 99?'    'Each of da trees is dirty now.  So, it's dirty tree, and dirty tree, and dirty tree.  Dat is 99.'   The boss is getting worried that he's going to actually have to hire this Norwegian, so he says, 'All right, last question.   Same rules again, but represent the number 100.'    The Norwegian fella stares into space some more, then he picks up the picture again and makes a little mark at the base of each tree and says, 'Dar ya go.  Von hundred.'  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The boss looks at the attempt.  'You must be nuts if you think that represents a hundred!'    The Norwegian leans forward and points to the marks at the base of each tree and says, 'A little dog come along and pooped by each tree.   So now you got dirty tree and a turd, dirty tree and a turd, and dirty tree and a turd, vich makes von hundred.'

TOYOTA</title><content type='html'>&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;A Modern Parable.&lt;br /&gt;A Japanese company ( Toyota ) and an American company (Ford Motors) decided to have a canoe race on the Missouri River. Both teams practiced long and hard to reach their peak performance before the race.On the big day, the Japanese won by a mile.The Americans, very discouraged and depressed, decided to investigate the reason for the crushing defeat. A management team made up of senior management was formed to investigate and recommend appropriate action.Their conclusion was the Japanese had 8 people rowing and 1 person steering, while the American team had 7 people steering and 2 people rowing.Feeling a deeper study was in order; American management hired a consulting company and paid them a large amount of money for a second opinion.They advised, of course, that too many people were steering the boat, while not enough people were rowing.Not sure of how to utilize that information, but wanting to prevent another loss to the Japanese, the rowing team's management structure was totally reorganized to 4 steering supervisors, 2 area steering superintendents and 1 assistant superintendent steering manager.They also implemented a new performance system that would give the 2 people rowing the boat greater incentive to work harder. It was called the 'Rowing Team Quality First Program,' with meetings, dinners and free pens for the rowers. There was discussion of getting new paddles, canoes and other equipment, extra vacation days for practices and bonuses. The pension program was trimmed to 'equal the competition' and some of the resultant savings were channeled into morale boosting programs and teamwork posters.The next year the Japanese won by two miles.Humiliated, the American management laid-off one rower, halted development of a new canoe, sold all the paddles, and canceled all capital investments for new equipment. The money saved was distributed to the Senior Executives as bonuses.The next year, try as he might, the lone designated rower was unable to even finish the race (having no paddles,) so he was laid off for unacceptable performance, all canoe equipment was sold and the next year's racing team was out-sourced to India.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Sadly, the End.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Here's something else to think about: Ford has spent the last thirty years moving all its factories out of the US, claiming they can't make money paying American wages. TOYOTA has spent the last thirty years building more than a dozen plants inside the US. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;The last quarter's results: TOYOTA makes 4 billion in profits while Ford racked up 9 billion in losses.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="color:#000066;"&gt;Ford folks are still scratching their heads, AND collecting bonuses...IF THIS WEREN'T SO TRUE IT MIGHT BE FUNNY!&lt;br /&gt;#####&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-6729553496170971966?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/6729553496170971966/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=6729553496170971966&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/6729553496170971966'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/6729553496170971966'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2009/01/fable-ford-vs-toyota.html' title='A FABLE -- FORD VS.

The liberal press reluctantly watches the semi-private audience, hoping they will be able to allot minimal coverage, if any.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The Pope asks Governor Palin to join him on a Gondola ride through the canals of Venice. They’re admiring the sights and agreeing on moral issues when, all of a sudden, the Pope’s hat (zucchetto) blows off his head and out into the water. The gondolier starts to reach for the Pontiff’s cap with his pole, but this move threatens to overturn the floating craft.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sarah waves the tour guide off, saying, “Wait, wait. I’ll take care of this. Don’t worry.” She steps off the gondola onto the surface of the water and walks out to the Pope’s hat, bends over and picks it up. She walks back across the water to the gondola and steps aboard. She hands the hat to the Pope amid stunned silence.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next morning, the headlines and topic of conversation among Democrats in Congress, CBS News, NBC News, ABC News, CNN, the New York Times, Hollywood celebrities, and in France and Germany is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;"“Palin Can't Swim!”"&lt;br /&gt;#####&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-1904189249597225062?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/1904189249597225062/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=1904189249597225062&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/1904189249597225062'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/1904189249597225062'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2008/10/sarah-and-pope.html' title='SARAH AND THE POPE'/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323937150073159539.post-8480671527786934012</id><published>2008-10-13T18:35:00.001-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-13T18:36:43.455-07:00</updated><title type='text'>ILLEGAL ALIENS</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;From the MANITOBA HERALD, Canada :&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The flood of American liberals sneaking across the border into Canada has intensified in the past week, sparking calls for increased patrols to stop the illegal immigration. The possibility of a McCain/Palin election is prompting the exodus among left-leaning citizens who fear they'll soon be required to hunt, pray, and agree with Bill O'Reilly.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Canadian border farmers say it's not uncommon to see dozens of sociology professors, animal rights activists, and Unitarians crossing their fields at night. “I went out to milk the cows the other day, and there was a Hollywood producer huddled in the barn,” said Manitoba farmer Red Greenfield , whose acreage borders North Dakota . The producer was cold, exhausted and hungry. He asked me if I could spare a latte and some free-range chicken. In an effort to stop the illegal aliens, Greenfield erected higher fences, but the liberals scaled them. So he tried installing speakers that blare Rush Limbaugh across the fields.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;'Not real effective,' he said. 'The liberals still got through, and Rush annoyed the cows so much they wouldn't give milk.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Officials are particularly concerned about smugglers who meet liberals near the Canadian border, pack them into Volvo station wagons, drive them across the border and leave them to fend for themselves. 'A lot of these people are not prepared for rugged conditions,' an Ontario border patrolman said. 'I found one carload without a drop of drinking water.' They did have a nice little Napa Valley cabernet, though.'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When liberals are caught, they're sent back across the border, often wailing loudly that they fear retribution from conservatives. Rumors have been circulating about the McCain administration establishing re-education camps in which liberals will be forced to shoot wolves from airplanes, deny evolution, and act out drills preparing them for the Rapture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In recent days, liberals have turned to sometimes-ingenious ways of crossing the border. Some have taken to posing as senior citizens on bus trips to buy cheap Canadian prescription drugs. After catching a half-dozen young vegans disguised in powdered wigs, Canadian immigration authorities began stopping buses and quizzing the supposed senior-citizen passengers on Perry Como and Rosemary Clooney hits to prove they were alive in the '50s. 'If they can't identify the accordion player on The Lawrence Welk Show, we get suspicious about their age,' an official said.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Canadian citizens have complained that the illegal immigrants are creating an organic-broccoli shortage and renting all the good Susan Sarandon movies. 'I feel sorry for American liberals, but the Canadian economy just can't support them,' an Ottawa resident said. 'How many art-history and English majors does one country need?'&lt;br /&gt;#####&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

I went into the local coffee shop for&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;a snack.

His insensitivity annoyed me, so I &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;called him a 'Nazi.'

He finished the second ticket and &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;put it on the windshield with the first. &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Then he wrote a third ticket when I called him&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;a moron in blue.

I am Ministry of the Treasury of the Republic of America. My country has had crisis that has caused the need for large transfer of funds of 800 billion dollars US. If you would assist me in this transfer, it would be most profitable to you. I am working with Mr. Phil Gram, lobbyist for UBS, who will be my replacement as Ministry of the Treasury in January. As a Senator, you may know him as the leader of the American banking deregulation movement in the 1990s. This transaction is 100% safe. This is a matter of great urgency. We need a blank check. We need the funds as quickly as possible. We cannot directly transfer these funds in the names of our close friends because we are constantly under surveillance. My family lawyer advised me that I should look for a reliable and trustworthy person who will act as a next of kin so the funds can be transferred. Please reply with all of your bank account, IRA and college fund account numbers and those of your children and grandchildren to &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a title="mailto:wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov" style="LINE-HEIGHT: 1.22em" href="http://us.mc528.mail.yahoo.com/mc/compose?to=wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov" target="_blank" rel="nofollow" ymailto="mailto:wallstreetbailout@treasury.gov"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;wallstreetbailout@ treasury. gov&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt; so that we may transfer your commission for this transaction. After I receive that information, I will respond with detailed information about safeguards that will be used to protect the funds.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000066;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Yours Faithfully,&lt;br /&gt;Minister of Treasury Paulson&lt;br /&gt;#####&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-1787178845473462816?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/1787178845473462816/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=1787178845473462816&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/1787178845473462816'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/1787178845473462816'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2008/09/bailout-satire.html' title='BAILOUT SATIRE'/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1323937150073159539.post-4254952200303098756</id><published>2008-09-22T23:53:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-09-22T23:55:24.587-07:00</updated><title type='text'>WORKING FOR THE GUV'MINT</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#663333;"&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Four men were bragging about how smart their cats were.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The first man was an Engineer,&lt;br /&gt;the second man was an Accountant,&lt;br /&gt;the third man was a Chemist, and&lt;br /&gt;the fourth man was a Government Employee.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;To show off, the Engineer called his cat, 'T-square, do your stuff.'&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;T-square pranced over to the desk, took out some paper and pen and promptly drew a circle, a square, and a triangle.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;Everyone agreed that was pretty smart.&lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;But the Accountant said his cat could do better.

The Presidential election was too close to call. Neither the Republican candidate nor the Democratic candidate had enough votes to win. There was much talk about ballot recounting, court challenges, etc., but a week-long ice fishing competition seemed the sportsmanlike way to settle things. The candidate that caught the most fish at the end of the week would win the election.Therefore, it was decided that there should be an ice fishing contest between the two candidates to determine the winner.After much of back and forth discussion, it was decided that the contest take place on a remote frozen lake in northern Minnesota .There were to be no observers present, and both men were to be sent out separately on this isolated lake and return at 5 P.M. with their catch for counting and verification by a team of neutral parties. At the end of the first day, John Mc. returned to the starting line and he had ten fish.Soon, Obama returned and had no fish. Well, everyone assumed he was just having another 'bad hair' day or something and hopefully, he would catch up the next day.At the end of the 2nd day John Mc. came in with 20 fish and Obama came in again with none.That evening, Harry Reid got together secretly with Obama and said, 'Obama, I think John Mc. is a low-life, cheatin' son-of-a-gun. I want you to go out tomorrow and don't even bother with fishing. Just spy on him and see just ho w he is cheating.'The next night (after John Mc. returns with 50 fish), said to Obama, 'Well, tell me, how is John Mc. cheating?'Obama replied, 'Harry, you're not going to believe this, but he's cutting holes in the ice!!'&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:130%;color:#000066;"&gt;#####&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1323937150073159539-7256737877134279083?l=nationalrantpage.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/feeds/7256737877134279083/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1323937150073159539&amp;postID=7256737877134279083&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/7256737877134279083'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1323937150073159539/posts/default/7256737877134279083'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://nationalrantpage.blogspot.com/2008/09/minnesota-humor.html' title='MINNESOTA HUMOR'/><author><name>BobsJokePage</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry></feed>
