A teacher in Elmira, New York asked her 6th grade class how many of
them were Obama fans.
Not really knowing what an Obama fan is, but wanting to be liked by the teacher, All the kids raised their hands except for Little Johnny.

The teacher asked Little Johnny why he has decided to be different...again.
Little Johnny said, 'Because I'm not an Obama fan.'
The teacher asked, 'Why aren't you an Obama fan?'
Johnny said, 'Because I'm a Republican.'

The teacher asked him why he's a Republican. Little Johnny answered, 'Well, my Mom's a Republican and my Dad's a Republican, So I'm a Republican.'

Annoyed by this answer, the teacher asked, 'If your mom was a moron and your dad was an idiot, What would that make you?'

With a big smile, Little Johnny replied, That would make me an Obama fan.'

Actually this is a rehash of a well known event in American history. At a public meeting Theodore Roosevelt was confronted by a Democratic heckler.

quote:

Roosevelt: "May I ask the gentleman why he is a Democrat?"

Heckler: "My grandfather was a Democrat; my father was a Democrat; and I am a Democrat."

Roosevelt: "Suppose your grandfather has been a jackass and your father was a jackass, what would you be?"

Heckler: "A Republican!"
