Birdfeeders

[Teresa]

I bought a bird feeder. I hung it on my back porch and  filled it with seed. Within a week we had hundreds of birds taking advantage  of the continuous flow of free and easily accessible food. But then the birds  started building nests in the boards of the patio, above the table, and next  to the barbecue. Then came the poop. It was everywhere: on the patio tile, the  chairs, the table...everywhere. Then some of the birds turned mean: They would  dive bomb me and try to peck me even though I had fed them out of my own  pocket. And others birds were boisterous and loud: They sat on the feeder  and squawked and screamed at all hours of the day and night and demanded that  I fill it when it got low on food.

After a while, I  couldn't even sit on my own back porch anymore. I took down the bird feeder  and in three days the birds were gone. I cleaned up their mess and took down  the many nests they had built all over the patio. Soon, the back yard was like  it used to be...quiet, serene and no one demanding their rights to a free  meal.

Now let's see...our government gives out free food, subsidized  housing, free medical care, free education and allows anyone born here to be a automatic citizen. Then the illegals came by the tens of thousands. Suddenly our taxes went up to pay for free services; small apartments are housing 5 families: you have to wait 6 hours to be seen by an emergency room doctor: you  child's 2nd grade class is behind other schools because over half the  class doesn't speak English: Corn Flakes now come in a bilingual box; I have  to press "one" to hear my bank talk to me in English, and people waving flags other than "Old Glory" are squawking and screaming in the streets, demanding more rights and free liberties.

Maybe it's time for the  government to take down the bird feeder.

* Suppose you were an idiot. ..........................
And suppose  you were a member of Congress........................
But then I repeat myself. -

*  There is no distinctly native American criminal
class...save Congress.

*  The only difference between a tax man and a
taxidermist is that the taxidermist leaves the skin.

*  No man's life, liberty, or property is safe
while the legislature is in session.
