Now you should read the Merchant of Venice and learn where the term "shylock" came from.

That parody was done in 1993. Your present author merely hijacked it, changed a few names, and re-posted it as though it were something new.

See https://www.warroom.com/ant-and-the-grasshopper/ for the original version.

There is no truth to the rumor that Michelle will run for President with her husband as Vice President, win in a squeaker, get inaugurated, and then resign, letting her husband become President for a third term.

The Constitution only says that one person cannot be ELECTED more than twice to the Presidency.....

Thanks for the original. It was sent to me in an email.
It’s pretty much the same except someone changed it to fit today’s politicians and foibles a little more closely.
I bet it morphs every election cycle.....

But there wouldn't be any snow because of the global warming. The Grasshopper would be able to squat outside the Ant's home and beg for food daily and poop all over the neighborhood.
