A man taking a hot air balloon ride at the state fair accidentally gets cut loose without a balloon handler. Unable to
know the workings of it, he drifts wherever the wind blows. Finally, he’s a couple of hundred feet in the air when he looks down on a field with a farmer standing there. “Where am I?” he shouts. The farmer shouts back “Thirty-eight degrees longitude, and 11 degrees latitude.” The man says, “You must be a Republican.” “Yeah, how can you tell?” “Well, I need a solution to my problem, what you said was essentially correct, but I can’t use it to help me out of my predicament.” The farmer responds, “You must be a Democrat.” “I am. How could YOU tell?” “Well, you created a problem, demanded answers, got one, couldn’t understand it, and somehow think this is MY fault.” |
