After The Bomb


Only Two of Us Are Left … One Is a Conservative and the Other Is a Liberal
This Blog Idea was originally published in Foolishness...Or is it? in February 2009 but I know you forgot all about it, so I have updated it and published it again. I bet you are excited…Or are u?
***************
The big war the Kingston Trio sang about in the 1960s has just come to an end. As it turns out the only two survivors happen to be in the United States. It is fortunate they are staggering around in close proximity to each other and, within a very few days, they find each other.

Somehow they know that they are the only two left on all of Planet Earth. They do the only logical thing. They set up housekeeping. They tell each other that the return of the human race depends on them and only them. They even start calling each other Adam & Eve.

One afternoon they get into discussing politics. A heated argument ensues and they become really angry at each other.

After dinner, still angry about the other's political beliefs, they go to sleep in separate bedrooms.

About 3 am the male gets out of his separate bed and sneaks into the female's separate bedroom and stabs her to death while she is asleep.

Within minutes he dies of the poison she had put in his dinnertime meatloaf.

Are you wondering which one was the Conservative and which one was the Liberal? Does it make any difference?

I will leave you with this thought … There are a lot of things in our world more important than politics.

Would I kid u?

Lagniappe: In case you have forgotten what the Kingston Trio sang about so long ago, here are their lyrics

But we can be tranquil and thankful and proud
For man's been endowed with a mushroom shaped cloud
And we know for certain that some lovely day
Someone will set the spark off
 And we will all be blown away

The actual music is much better. Click below:

Hello Smartfella,

Thanks for the post...it's a good reminder that everything is more important than our current politics.
