How the bailout works..........

Taboo Cigars · 11-21-2008, 03:08 PM

Young Chuck bought a Donkey from a farmer for $100.
The farmer agreed to deliver the Donkey the next day.

The next day the farmer drove up and said, 'Sorry son,

but I have some bad news, the donkey died.'

Chuck replied, 'Well, then just give me my money back.'

The farmer said, 'Can't do that. I went and spent it already.'

Chuck said, 'Ok, then, just bring me the dead donkey.'

The farmer asked, 'Whatya gonna do with him?

Chuck said, 'I'm going to raffle him off.'

The farmer said, 'You can't raffle off a dead donkey!'
Chuck said, 'Sure I can watch me. I just won't tell anybody he's dead.'

A month later, the farmer met up with Chuck and asked, 'What happened
with that dead donkey?'

Chuck said, 'I raffled him off. I sold 500 tickets at two dollars a
piece and made $998!'

The farmer said, 'Didn't anyone complain?'

Chuck said, 'Just the guy who won. So I gave him his two dollars back.'

Chuck now heads the US Federal Government bailout team.

Dentists thought there were some gaps in the plan

Allergists voted to scratch it

Dermatologists advised not to make any rash moves

Gastroenterologists had sort of a gut feeling about it

Neurologists thought the Administration had a lot of nerve

Obstetricians felt they were all laboring under a misconception

Ophthalmologists considered the idea shortsighted

Pathologists yelled, 'Over my dead body!'

Pediatricians said, 'Oh, Grow up!'

Psychiatrists thought the whole idea was madness

Radiologists could see right through it

Surgeons decided to wash their hands of the whole thing

Internists thought it was a bitter pill to swallow

Plastic Surgeons said, 'This puts a whole new face on the matter.'

Podiatrists thought it was a step forward

Urologists felt the scheme wouldn't hold water

Anesthesiologists thought the whole idea was a gas

Cardiologists didn't have the heart to say no

In the end, Proctologists left the decision up to some assholes in Washington
