Republican Farm.....

I remember in High School we were required to read Animal Farm by George Orwell.

I have to be honest, I never understood why......it seemed like such a waste of a young teenagers’ time.

Tonight it all made sense......

As I was watching the news and on every channel the Republican Pundits were all calling the repeal and replacement of Obamacare a Repair bill.

HUH? I have been hearing them say repeal..for years, then during the campaign they added replace.

But now that their attempts to push the 'Replace' bill through on the eve of the anniversary of the Obamacare signing...( a Republican created and sponsored bill that stinks so bad that they cant get enough Republicans to actually vote for it), they are now bandying around the term 'REPAIR"

"(animal farm excerpt) It was about this time that the pigs suddenly moved into the farmhouse and took up their residence there. Again the animals seemed to remember that a resolution against this had been passed in the early days, and again Squealer was able to convince them that this was not the case. It was absolutely necessary, he said, that the pigs, who were the brains of the farm, should have a quiet place to work in. It was also more suited to the dignity of the Leader (for of late he had taken to speaking of Napoleon under the title of "Leader") to live in a house than in a mere sty. Nevertheless, some of the animals were disturbed when they heard that the pigs not only took their meals in the kitchen and used the drawing-room as a recreation room, but also slept in the beds. Boxer passed it off as usual with "Napoleon is always right!", but Clover, who thought she remembered a definite ruling against beds, went to the end of the barn and tried to puzzle out the Seven Commandments which were inscribed there. Finding herself unable to read more than individual letters, she fetched Muriel.

"Muriel," she said, "read me the Fourth Commandment. Does it not say something about never sleeping in a bed?"

With some difficulty Muriel spelt it out.

"It says, 'No animal shall sleep in a bed with sheets,'" she announced finally.

Curiously enough, Clover had not remembered that the Fourth Commandment mentioned sheets; but as it was there on the wall, it must have been so.

Sound familiar? Repair bill?

That George guy was a pretty smart cookie..........
