Former President George W. Bush is jogging slowly down the street one day, and he sees a little girl giving away puppies that her dog just had.
Eager for a rest, he walks over the girl and says, “Howdy there, little girl. I see you’re giving away puppies and think it’s great that you’re doing such a good thing.”
The little girl says, “Thank you, Mister Bush. Would you like a puppy? They’re Republicans.”
Dubya declines the offer and jogs on down the road. As he’s jogging the next day he sees the same girl and decides to stop and talk to her again. “You know what, little girl? I think I’ll take one of those puppies after all, seeing as how they’re Republicans.”
The girl says, “I’m sorry Mister Bush, but they’re not Republicans any more. They’re Democrats now.”
Now a bit miffed, Bush says, “They are? How do you know they’re Democrats? As a matter of fact, how did you know that they were Republicans to begin with?”
The little girl looks up at him sheepishly and says, “Well, sir, just after they were born they were Republicans, but now their eyes are open.”
