Joke... Republicans VS Democrats

A woman in a hot air ballon realized that she was lost. She lowered her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below.
She shouted to him, "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his GPS and replied, " You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above mean sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14 minutes, 29 seconds North latitude and your longitude is 100 degrees, 49 minutes, 12 seconds West.
She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be a Republican." "I am", the man replied, "How did you know?" "Well", answered the balloonist, "everything you told me appears to be technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I am still lost. Frankly, you have not been much help to me."
The man laughed and responded, "You must be a Democrat." "I am", replied the balloonist, "How did you know?" "Well", said the man, "You don't know where you are or where you're going. You've risen to where you are due to a large quantity of hot air. You made a promise that you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were in before we met, but, somehow, now it's my fault.
Addendum to the joke
Only now, it's a "McCainstream" republican in the boat and instead of the witty verbal response, he wholeheartedly agrees with the democrat and decides the only logical response to her is to kick holes through the hull of his boat. Somehow that should help.

"The consolidation of the states into one vast republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of the ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded it."
- Robert E. Lee, 1866
the joke's on us...
I think the "Republican" should be up in the balloon with his co-criminal conspirator, the "Democrat"--and then a libertarian comes along and pops their bloated big-government balloon. That would be funny.
"We don't have to start a brand new revolution...All we have to do is restore the original Constitution." -Ron Paul

"...a nation that is afraid to let its people judge the truth and falsehood in an open market is a nation that is afraid of its people." -John F. Kennedy
That is funny...
And that would make a great political cartoon also.
No replace...
Democrat with Neocon and Republican with Libertarian or Constitutionalist.
Good Laugh!
Bump! :- )
