MODERN LITTLE RED HEN

Once upon a time, there was a little red hen who scratched about the barnyard until she uncovered some grains of wheat. She called her neighbors and said, “If we plant this wheat, we shall have bread to eat. Who will help me plant it?”

“Not I,” said Rahm Emanuel the cow. “Not I,” said Nancy Pelosi the pig. “Not I,” said Harry Reid the goat.

“Then I will,” said the little red hen, and she did. The wheat grew tall and ripened into golden grain. “Who will help me reap my wheat?” said the little red hen.

“Not I,” said Rahm Emanuel the cow. “Out of my classification.” “Not I,” said Nancy Pelosi the pig, “I’d lose my seniority.” “Not I,” said Harry Reid the goat, “I’d lose my unemployment compensation.”

“Then I will,” said the little red hen, and she did.

At last, it came time to bake the bread. “Who will help me bake the bread?” asked the little red hen.

“That would be overtime for me,” said Rahm Emanuel the cow. “Don’t want to work that hard.” “I’m a drop out and never learned how,” said Nancy Pelosi the pig. “If I’m the only helper, that’s discrimination,” said Harry Reid the goat.

“Then I will,” said the little red hen. She baked five loaves and held them up for her neighbors to see. They all wanted some – in fact, they demanded a share! But the little red hen said, “No, these loaves are for me and my chicks!”

“Excess profit!” yelled Rahm Emanuel the cow. “Capitalist leech!” yelled Nancy Pelosi the pig. “I demand equal treatment!” yelled Harry Reid the goat.

Nancy Pelosi, the pig, grunted and they hurriedly painted “unfair – equal treatment under the law” signs and began to picket the barnyard and shout obscenities at the little red hen.

Then Obama, the donkey, came into the barnyard and said to the little red hen, “you must not be greedy. You must spread the loaves around!”

“But I was an entrepreneur, I worked hard and I earned this bread,” said the little red hen.

“Exactly,” said Obama the donkey. “That is the wonderful free-enterprise system…anyone in the barnyard can earn as much as he wants. However, under my imposed barnyard regulations, the productive workers must divide their product with the idle.”

The little red hen’s neighbors wondered why she never again baked bread!
