Joe asks for 6 months of retraining for ‘Cattle Guards’!


....................

CATTLE GUARDS, THIS IS ABOUT AS GOOD AS THEM WANTING TO CHANGE THE LAW OF PHYSICS!

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.  For some reason the cattle will not step on the “guards,” probably because they fear getting their feet caught between the rails.
.............................

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.  [b]“Times are hard,” said Joe Biden, “It’s only fair to the cattle guards and their families!”[/b]
.........................................
.........................................And these two guys are running our country, OMG!

 

.................................................Passed on to you without further comment...Now you do the same

As the article notes, this joke has been going around and leveled against various political figures since the 1950's.

That story has been around for awhile and it just changes presidents. It was told about Clinton but I don't remember seeing it about Bush.

The cattle guard in the picture is in very good shape. You should see them after they have spent a few years in the oilfield. Drilling rig movers, transports, and pulling units really make a mess of them. I made quite a bit of money rebuilding them before retiring.
