Joe asks for 6 months of retraining for 'Cattle Guards'!
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. Cattle will not step on
A few months ago, President Obama received and was reading a report that there were over 100,000 cattle guards in Colorado . The 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 President Obama out on the matter, Vice-President Joe Biden, intervened with a request that...before any cattle guards were fired, they be given six months of retraining for Arizona border guards. 'Times are hard', said Joe Biden, 'it's only fair to the cattle guards and their families!'
....Morons!

Amazing that they put so much effort into recycling one of the oldest fucking jokes in all of politics. Derpity derp!!!
Who does this? What possible value do they see it giving a "fresh" version of this extremely tired and oh so moronic story?
Well they want to bring the country back to the 50s why not start with jokes.
Have you seen the keys to the batter's box?
Headline says it all:
Ya jes cain't fix stupid!
I wholeheartedly agree: the vapid stupidity of morans who think something like this is a laff-riot are not able to be "fixed" and are terminally stupid.
A very old & very tired "joke" now deserving to be retired.
Note how the propoganda works, however... as has been noted here before, the "level" of this stuff is about middle-school age, and the "digs" and "jabs" are of that age-group, too. Celebrating & encouraging ignorance as a means from *distracting the rubes* from how the Oligarchy is *ripping them off.*
Er..
"Well they want to bring the country back to the 50s why not start with jokes."
Not really.
In the 1950s, upper-income tax rates were very high, unions were strong, and even the Republicans weren't trying to steal our Social Security. Yeah, there also were big problems - namely, the lack of civil rights legislation - but bringing that up is not the trick for shutting up wingnuts.
Every time some conservative whines that things "aren't the way they used to be", and a little digging reveals that they're thinking of the 50's, agree with them! Agree that some things were much better in the 1950s - and then suggest that we need to return to 50s-era tax rates and union membership-levels.
You'd be amazed how fast the past starts to look less appealing to the average "moran".
I think L-gunner meant the 1850's, not the 1950's.
Heh.
This took me less than 10 seconds to find on Snopes. So pathetic.
