Your Government At Work ...

You will love this one, I haven't stopped laughing yet.....
For those of you who have never traveled to the west, 
or southwest, cattle guards are horizontal steel rails 
placed at fence openings, in dug-out places in the 
roads adjacent to highways (sometimes across highways), 
to prevent cattle from crossing over that area. For some 
reason the cattle will not step on the "guards," probably
because they fear getting their feet caught between 
the rails.

A few months ago, President Obama received and was 
reading a report that there were over 100,000 cattle 
guards in Colorado . Colorado ranchers had protested 
his proposed changes in grazing policies, so he ordered 
the Secretary of the Interior to fire half of the 
"cattle guards" immediately!!

Before the Secretary of the Interior could respond and 
presumably try to straighten him out, Vice-President 
Joe Biden intervened with a request that… before any 
"cattle guards" were fired, they be given 
six months of retraining.

You can't fix stupid !
