    Five surgeons are having drinks together at a surgical convention... The first, a Florida surgeon, says: "I like to see accountants on my operating table, because when you open them up, everything inside is numbered." The second, a Michigan surgeon, responds: "Yeah, but you should try electricians. Everything inside of them is color coded." The third, a California surgeon, says: "No, I really think librarians are the best; everything inside of them is in alphabetical order." The fourth, an New York surgeon, chimes in: "You know, I like construction workers. Those guys always understand when you have a few parts left over." But the fifth, from Washington D.C. shut them all up when he observed, "You're all wrong. Politicians are the easiest to operate on. There's no guts, no heart, no balls, no brains, no spine, and the head and the ass are interchangeable."

    The 3-legged stool of understanding is held up by history, languages, and mathematics. Equipped with these three you can learn anything you want to learn. But if you lack any one of them you are just another ignorant peasant with dung on your boots. R. A. H.

      Heard it before, but it still garners you a 5 as it is both funny and true.

              Now that explains why the US keeps crossing the ever increasing debt ceiling :-)

                I really have to wonder why you needed to bring jingoistic attacks into what was meant to be a somewhat amusing joke, just as appropriate for the U.K., India, Brazil, France, etc, as for the U.S.

                  The "attack" (if that is what you want to call it) was not just on the US politicians, it was meant for the politician "class" in general. I'm in India and if you read the latest political news in India, you would agree with my views about politicians.

                    I had/still have trouble parsing your words in the way you say you meant them, but, O.K.
