sent by a friend and seems reasonably accurate to me;

MY SON WAS FLUNKING OUT OF COLLEGE SO I TOLD HIM,

"YOU WILL MARRY THE GIRL I CHOOSE."

 

HE SAID, "NO."

 

I TOLD HIM, "SHE IS BILL GATES' DAUGHTER."

 

HE SAID, "YES."

 

I CALLED BILL GATES AND SAID,

"I WANT YOUR DAUGHTER TO MARRY MY SON."

 

BILL GATES SAID, "NO."

 

I TOLD BILL GATES,

"MY SON IS THE CEO OF THE WORLD BANK."

 

BILL GATES SAID, "OK."

 

I CALLED THE PRESIDENT OF WORLD BANK AND

ASKED HIM TO MAKE MY SON THE CEO.

 

HE SAID, "NO."

 

I TOLD HIM, "MY SON IS BILL GATES' SON-IN-LAW."

 

HE SAID, "OK."

 

AND THAT'S EXACTLY HOW

POLITICS WORKS HERE IN  AMERICA.

 

And thus, began the practice of hiring morons to

work in influential positions of government.

 

This practice is "STATUS QUO"

& still unbroken to this day.
