Its just a joke...keep it out of the temp please
An old fable with 2004 reality
OLD VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his
house and laying up supplies for the winter. The gr****opper thinks he's
a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away. Come winter,
the ant is warm and well fed.
The gr****opper has no food or shelter, so he dies out in the cold.
MORAL OF THE STORY: Be responsible for yourself!
MODERN VERSION:
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his
house and laying up supplies for the winter.
The gr****opper thinks he's a fool and laughs and dances and plays the
summer away.
Come winter, the shivering gr****opper calls a press conference and
demands to know why the ant should be allowed to be warm and well fed
while others are cold and starving.
CBS, NBC, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering
gr****opper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a
table filled with food.
America is stunned by the sharp contrast. How can this be, that in a
country of such wealth, this poor gr****opper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the gr****opper, and everybody
cries when they sing, "It's Not Easy Being Green."
Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant's house where
the news stations film the group singing, "We shall overcome."
Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the
gr****opper's sake.
Tom Daschle & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Peter Jennings
that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the gr****opper, and both
call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his "fair
share."
Finally, the EEOC drafts the "Economic Equity and Anti-Gr****opper Act,"
retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for
failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing
left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the
government.
Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the gr****opper in a
defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of
federal judges that Bill appointed from a list of single-parent welfare
recipients.
The ant loses the case.
The story ends as we see the gr****opper finishing up the last bits of
the ant's food while the government house he is in, which just happens
to be the ant's old house, crumbles around him because he doesn't
maintain it.
The ant has disappeared in the snow.
The gr****opper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house,
now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once
peaceful neighborhood.
