Rejected by the cow and the pig!



Why is it that every couple of days, some politicians in the country are beating the shit out of one another? They should focus on governing the country and provide good wisdom to lead the country out of the doldrums. They should bring immediate solutions to help the hard core poor, think of good ways to address the huge fuel price increase. The opposition should focus on providing effective check and balance to ensure good governance. Politicians should serve the public, not obsessed with lying, scheming and conniving to bring each other down. Are we not fools to put our trust in them? No wonder the cow and the pig rejected them!

A doctor, an engineer and a politician were traveling together in the countryside. They stopped at a small country inn for the night. "I have only two rooms, so one of you will have to sleep in the barn," said the innkeeper. The doctor volunteered to sleep in the barn, went outside, and the others went to bed.

A short time later they were awakened by a knock. It was the doctor, who said, "There's a cow in that barn. I'm a Hindu, and it would offend my beliefs to sleep next to a sacred animal." The engineer said he'd be willing to sleep in the barn and left.

The others went back to bed, but soon were awakened by another knock. It was the engineer, who said, "There's a pig in the barn. I'm Muslim, and I can't sleep next to an unclean animal."

So the politician was sent to the barn. It was getting really late, the others were very tired and soon fell asleep. But then they were awakened by an even louder knocking. They opened the door and were surprised by what they saw: It was the cow and the pig!
