A Harley rider is riding by the zoo in Washington , DC, when he sees
a little girl leaning into the lion's cage. Suddenly, the lion grabs
her by the cuff of her jacket and tries to pull her inside to
slaughter her, under the eyes of her screaming parents.

The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits the lion
square on the nose with a powerful punch.

Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back, letting go of the girl,
and the biker brings her to her terrified parents, who thank him
endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole event.

The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, 'Sir, this was the most
gallant and brave thing I've seen a man do in my whole life.'

The Harley rider replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really, the lion was
behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger and acted as I felt
right.'

The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go unnoticed. I'm
a journalist, you know, and tomorrow's paper will have this story on
the front page... So, what do you do for a living and what political
affiliation do you have?'

The biker replies, 'I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican.' The
journalist leaves.

The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it indeed
brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front page:

U.S. MARINE ASSAULTS AFRICAN IMMIGRANT AND STEALS HIS LUNCH

That pretty much sums up the major media's approach to the news these
days.

Herring can't cite a real story so he posts fantasies that sate his
need to feel self-righteous.

Dreamy story with a fantasy ending. Sounds like most Republican
plans.

Man, without you and Krause guiding her way, the Plum would be totally
friggin' lost. From what I see, she needs even more guidance.
