Barkley's Lesson In Socialism

I worked hard all year, barking at strangers, fetching game birds and keeping Mom company. So I earned a toy!!! I'm proud of my toy.MY TOY! Hard work and loyalty DO pay off!

But Barkley, there is a dog down the road that lays on his ass and whines all day and does nothing. HE doesn't have a toy. So the man will come and give him YOUR toy. Come on, we're not taking it we're just redistributing the toys.
How do you feel about the whole idea now Barkley?Bad Politician. No Vote!

I agree completely! I teach part time at a community college and have discovered that some are there from some sort of "redistribution". Ok with that, but they simply do not care. To be in class, buy the textbook, etc. is a chore for them.

So my pay is sorta going back to the students and it is increasingly apparent that I do not need to do this any more. The paperwork alone has increased exponentially over the past 3 years!

I agree with Barkley!

As the toy goes so will more of our hard earned compensation as the Bush tax credits expire soon. Barkley has it right, Bad Politician. No Vote!!!

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

I do detect a bark of protest ... or was it a growl?

You must be feeling better, to have such a snarky sense of humor. ;-)

Barkley is more than just a handsome lad. He's a discerning Canine Citizen. Good job Barkley!

I think Barkley deserves a raise. After all he did chase off that intruder.

Excellent post and pics.

If Sir Barkley lived in Kalifornia, the toy would be banned as not being on the list of approved toys.
For the children yanow.

All I have to add is that word verification is "unfunh".

I agree, Lady B,

As part of their crack down on EEEEVVVIIILLLL corporations the Obama admin will be cutting out the tax incentive for companies that have tuition assistance programs. So now I will be paying my own full tuition...which I can deal with but exactly how is this a "Slap to abusive Corporations" it seems to me that this is just another slap to me an individual. Being a Student AND a bread winning TAX PAYER at 48 is not an easy thing. On the other hand, im not adamant that corps get tax breaks to pay for my education.

It's not the politicians that are a problem. It's the electorate that puts these people into office. It's an electorate who believes that it's OK to take money from one person, and give it to another.

The politician is just a symptom of a pernicious disease that is infecting our country.

Maybe you should be making ads for the RNC. The whole, "A picture is worth a thousand words" thing.

Great looking dog.

Barkley just gets wiser and wiser as time goes on, doesn't he?

Barkley for President!

Just make sure Barkley's shots are up to date. I would hate for him to catch something when he bites a Politician. After all you don't know where they have been or what they have done.
