Republican.
A woman in a hot air balloon realized she was lost. She lowered
her altitude and spotted a man in a boat below. She shouted to
him "Excuse me, can you help me? I promised a friend I would
meet him an hour ago, but I don't know where I am."
The man consulted his GPS and replied, "You're in a hot air
balloon, approx 30 feet above a ground elevation of 2,346 feet.
You are at 31 degrees, 14.97 minutes north latitude and 100
degrees, 49.09 minutes west longitude."
She rolled her eyes and said, "You must be republican." "I am,"
replied the man. "How did you know that?" "Well" answered the
balloonist "everything you told me is technically correct. But I
have no idea what to do with your information and I'm still lost.
Frankly, you've not been much help to me."
The man smiled and responded "You must be a Democrat." "I am"
replied the balloonist. "How did you know?" "Well" said the man
"you don't know where you are, or where you are going. You've
risen to where you are, due to a large quantity of hot air. You
made a promise you have no idea how to keep, and you expect me to
solve your problem. You're in exactly the same position you were
in before we met, but somehow, now it's my fault.

Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.
