The wisdom of our elders, passed on from generation to generation, says that, "When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount".

However, in government more advanced strategies are often employed, such as:

* Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.

* Buying a stronger whip.

* Changing riders.

* Appointing a committee to study the horse.

* Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride dead horses.

* Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.

* Reclassifying the dead horse as living-impaired.

* Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.

* Providing additional funding and/or training to increase the dead horse's performance.

* Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve the dead horse's performance.

* Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less costly, carries lower overhead and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line of the economy than do some other horses.

* Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.

* Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.

Glad that have not thought of making the dead horse into a helicopter like with the man with his dead cat.

ijusluvit........ I just love it!

Allowing the dead horse to register to vote and receive food stamps.

Allowing the dead horse to register to vote and receive food stamps.

Remember a dead horse does not need to register just show up, plus it does not need to prove it is dead, and it also needs no food as it is a cost effective dead horse!

guess you are talking about the dems.
