A cowboy from Texas attended a social function where Barack Obama was trying
to gather more support for his Health Plan. Once he discovered the cowboy was
from President Bush's home area, he started to belittle him by talking in a
southern drawl and single syllable words.
As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing
around his head. The cowboy said, "Y'all havin' some problem with them
circle flies?"
Obama stopped talking and said, "Well, yes, if that's what they're called,
but I've never heard of circle flies."
"Well Sir," the cowboy replied, "circle flies hang around ranches. They're
called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around the
back end of a horse."

stopped and bluntly asked, "Are you calling me a horse's ass?"
"No, Sir," the cowboy replied, "I have too much respect for the citizens of
this country to call their President a horse's ass."
"That's a good thing," Obama responded and began rambling on once more.
After a long pause, the cowboy, in his best Texas drawl said, "Hard to fool
them flies, though.
