A Little Feller In East Texas

[-Cp]

Barack Obama, the Presidential Democratic Party candidate, is for
banning all guns in America .. He is considered by those who have dealt
with him as a bit more than just a little self-righteous.

At a recent rural elementary school assembly in East Texas , he
asked the audience for total silence. Then, he started to slowly clap his hands once every few seconds, holding the audience in total silence.

Then he said into the microphone, 'Children, every time I clap my
hands together, a child in America dies from gun violence.'

Then, little Richard Earl, with a proud East Texas drawl, pierced
the quiet and said:



''Well, dumb-ass, stop clapping!'

I've seen a different version of that joke, with Bono clapping his hands and a Scotsman telling him to stop.
