A Father Daughter Talk

[allthumbs]

A young woman was about to finish her first year of

college. Like so many others her age she considered

herself to be a very liberal Democrat and was for

distribution of all wealth. She felt deeply ashamed

that her father was a rather staunch Republican which

she expressed openly.

 

One day she was challenging her father on his beliefs

and his opposition to higher taxes on the rich & more

welfare programs. In the middle of her heart felt

diatribe based upon the lectures she had from her far

left professors at her school, he stopped her and

asked her point blank, how she was doing in school.

She answered rather haughtily that she had a 4.0 GPA,

and let him know that it was tough to maintain. That

she had to study all the time, never had time to go

out and party like other people she knew. She didn't

even have time for a boyfriend and didn't really have

many college friends because of spending all her time

studying. That she was taking a more difficult

curriculum.

 

Her father listened and then asked, "How is your

friend Mary."

 

She replied, "Mary is barely getting by", she

continued, "all she has is barely a 2.0 GPA" adding,

"and all she takes are easy classes and she never

studies." But to explain further she continued

emotionally, "But Mary is so very popular on campus,

college for her is a blast, she goes to all the

parties all the time and very often doesn't even show

up for classes because she is too hung over."

 

Her father then asked his daughter, "Why don't you go

to the Dean's office and ask him to deduct a 1.0 off

your 4.0 GPA and give it to her friend who only had a

2.0." He continued, "That way you will both have a

3.0 GPA and certainly that would be a fair equal

distribution of GPA."

 

The daughter visibly shocked by the fathers suggestion

angrily fired back, "That wouldn't be fair! I worked

really hard for mine, I did without and Mary has done

little or nothing, she played while I worked real

hard!"

 

The father slowly smiled and said, "Welcome to the

Republican Party."

Ironic isn't it? She got to go to college, while so many others couldn't afford it.

Because I know the truth, that you're an Arabic sympathizing bastard, I tell you this, Necro - "Elif air ab tizak".

 

...for us good Americans, that means "a thousand dicks in your ass"

...and her father asked ... so how are you doing in school?

... and his daughter replied. "Great, I have a 4.0 and it all comes really easily to me!, I spend most of my time goofing off and eating pizza, I haven't done any homework all quarter, and I missed my last test, but I am somehow managing to get a 4.0 still"

 

... and her father asked .. so how is your friend Mary doing?

and his daughter replied. "She is having such a tough time, she works so hard, spends hours studying and gets really good scores on tests. But because the class is on a curve she will only ever get a 2.0 as long as I am getting a 4.0."

 

"Well," said her father, "good thing I donated that new library to the school then isn't it"

Damn if only we could have it that easy. Unfortunately, one can't condense the Republican platform into one simple idea, i.e., fair reward for fair labor. There's a lot of other stuff you gotta consume along with that to be a party animal.
