Need a haircut?

     Barber Shop

One day a florist goes to a barber for a haircut. After the cut he asked about his bill and the barber replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money from you; I'm
doing community service this week." The florist is pleased and leaves the shop.

The next morning when the barber goes to open his shop there is a thank you card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his bill the barber again replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money from you; I'm doing community service this week." The cop is happy and leaves the shop. The next morning when the barber goes to open up there is a thank you card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.

Later a Republican comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his bill the barber again replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money from you ; I'm doing community service this week." The Republican is very happy and leaves the shop. The next morning when the barber goes to open, there is a thank you card and a dozen different books such as "How to Improve Your Business" and "Becoming More Successful."

Then a Democrat comes in for a haircut, and when he goes to pay his bill the barber again replies: "I'm sorry, I cannot accept money from you; I'm doing community service this week." The Democrat is very happy and leaves the shop. The next morning when the barber goes to open up, there are a dozen Democrats lined up waiting for a free haircut.

And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between left and right..."

  1. I can only assume that since they were employed, the first two visitors to the shop were either Republicans, or Independents?

  4. is it my imagination or are democrats the FIRST to beeawch about who's on a social program or who's not? my mother complains about every little program until one of my nephews shows signs of a disability and then they're the ONLY deserving people on the planet!

    i have honored her on several occasions by arguing her lame point to the end and back. she'll usually sigh heavily and say she needs to go and then won't talk to me for a couple of months...this is just one way to honor our parents...no?

  6. Some of the funniest things are dead honest! I like being a conservative Christian, it's wonderful to do something nice or helpful to someone you know needs it! It's the personal touch!
    Thanks for what you said at Cube's, I was touched.
