The government at work...Not just in America



You will love this one, I haven't stop laughing yet.....

For those of you who have never traveled to the west, or southwest, cattle guards are horizontal steel rails placed at fence openings, in dug-out places in the roads adjacent to highways (sometimes across highways), to prevent cattle from crossing over that area. For some reason the cattle will not step on the "guards," probably because they fear getting their feet caught between the rails.

A few months ago, President Obama received and was reading a report that there were over 100,000 cattle guards in Colorado. Colorado ranchers had protested his proposed changes in grazing policies, so he ordered the Secretary of the Interior to fire half of the "cattle" guards immediately!!

Before the Secretary of the Interior could respond and presumably try to straighten him out, Vice-President, Joe Biden, intervened with a request that.. before any "cattle" guards were fired, they be given six months of retraining.

And these guys are running our country!!


Here in Oz



Sounds like the tale of the farmer who was not allowed a tax rebate for the depreciation on his artesian bore, on the grounds that depreciation was not allowed for livestock. wtf Confused

Cheers, Vince

In Arizona in some places they simply paint the stripes on the road and that's enough to stop the cattle. By the way that joke was originally intended for Pres. Clinton, I believe. Totally believable tho, and truly funny!

They want my vote or for me to vote for them=politicians...

It's our job to pick the best one. It's obvious that we really screwed up this time.
