It just hit me!

My dog sleeps about 20 hours a day. He has his food prepared for him. His meals are provided at no cost to him.

He visits the doctor once a year for his checkup, and again during the year, if any medical needs arise. For this he pays nothing and nothing is required of him.

He lives in a nice neighborhood in a house that is much larger than he needs, but he is not required to do any upkeep.

If he makes a mess, someone else cleans it up. He has his choice of luxurious places to sleep.

He receives these accommodations absolutely free.

He is living like a king, and has absolutely no expenses whatsoever.

All of his costs are picked up by others who earn a living.

I was just thinking about all this and suddenly it hit me like a ton of bricks ~

My dog is a CONGRESSMAN!
