A cowboy
from Texas attends a social function
where Barack Obama is trying to gather
support for his Health
Plan.
Once he discovers the
cowboy is from President Bush’s home
area, he starts 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?”
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.”
“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 butt?”
“No, sir,” the cowboy
replies, “I have too much respect for the
citizens of this country to call their
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.”
