A woman in a hot air balloon realizes she is lost. She lowers her altitude and spots Bill fishing in the “Field of Streams” on Kennebago lake. She shouts 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."

Bill consults his portable GPS and replies, "You're in a hot air balloon, approximately 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2346 feet above sea level. You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100 degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude.

She rolls her eyes and says, "You must be a Ron Paul voter!"

"I am," replies Bill. "How did you know?"

"Well," answers the balloonist, "everything you tell me is technically correct, but I have no idea what to do with your information, and I'm still lost. Frankly, you're not much help to me.

Bill smiles and responds, "You must be an Obama voter."

"I am," replies the balloonist. "How did you know?"

"Well," says Bill, "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 now 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.

But she was having so much fun before she had to confront the fact that she's an arrogant idiot!

Good one. I like it.

Nah. Save it to use as a conversation ender when you get one of those really stubborn, utterly substance-free Obamanations who can prove nothing, will admit nothing and will stop at nothing.

We'll call it the Secret Weapon.

That's the problem with a hot air balloon. The hot air gets you high and looking down on everyone and everything is a wonderful experience, but you pretty much wind up going whichever way the wind blows...

Except for those of you who are stuck in trees and power lines.

Great joke! Thanks for sharing.

My wife knows a balloonist and we took my son up for a free ride here in Iowa. It was fall and the leaves were off the trees, so we could see all the animals down below. Deer, turkey, hawks, lots of wildlife. It was a pretty neat experience. I highly recommend it!

What a brilliant strategy you have Conza, you believe so strongly in your positions that you are even willing to attack other Ron Paul supporters, over and over, and spilling from other threads. You don't get it, do you?

I see you more as an Obama supporter. But I guess I'll just shut up now..

I'm more of a Ron Paul supporter who is trying to promote his principles through the only way I know how... debate, conversation, and democracy.

You're way seems like fun though.

True it does. :D

I'm more of a Ron Paul supporter who is trying to promote his principles through the only way I know how... debate, conversation, and through a constitutional republic. ;) Democracy sucks, ask the Founding Fathers..

Democracy sucks does it? Better dig up Mises and let him know. he might change his mind on his vision of the economy.

Yea democracy sucks, ask Socrates. There is a reason why the word is never mentioned in all the pre-ample, declaration of independence and the constitution. :rolleyes:
