A cowboy from Texas attended
a social function where
Barack Obama was trying to gather support for
his Health Plan.
When Obama discovered the cowboy was from President
Bush's
home area, he started to belittle him by talking in a southern
drawl and single syllable words.
As he was doing that, he kept swatting at
some flies
that were buzzing around his head. The cowboy says,
"Y'all havin' some problem with them circle flies?"

"Y'all havin' some problem with them circle flies?"
Obama stopped talking and said, "Well, yes, if that's
what they're called, but I've never heard of circle flies."

"Well, sir," the cowboy replies, "Circle
flies hang around
ranches. They're called circle flies because they're almost
always found circling around the back end of a horse."

always found circling around the back end of a horse."
"Oh," Obama replies as he goes back to rambling.
But, a moment later he stops and bluntly asks,
"Are you calling me a horse's ass?"
"No, sir," the cowboy replies, "I have
too much respect
for the citizens of this country to call their
president a horse's ass."

president a horse's ass."
"That's a good thing," Obama responds and
begins rambling on once more.

After a long pause, the cowboy, in his best Texas drawl says,
"Hard to fool them flies, though."

Great punch line. One of your best.

ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw this post on Google Reader I thought that dang fly was on my computer screen (it's not in a little box on reader.)
ReplyDeleteWe rather dislike flies around here but like you - we've changed our mind!
The circle forms an O.
ReplyDeleteThe flies around a horses ass got more hope and change than the American people did. So the edge goes to the horse, and its component parts.
The flies know a stinkhole when they smell one.
