A Japanese doctor says, "Medicine in my country is so advanced that we
can
take a kidney out of one man, put it in another, and have him out
looking
for work in six weeks."
A German doctor says, "That is nothing. We can take a lung out of one
person, put it in another, and have him out looking for work in four
weeks."
A British doctor says, "In my country medicine is so advanced that we
can
take half a heart out of one person, put it in another, and have both
of
them out looking for work in two weeks."
The Canadian doctor, not to be outdone, interjected, "You guys are way
behind. We took a woman with no brains, sent her to Michigan where she
became Governor, and now half the state is out looking for work.

you forgot the ex republican part....

She didn't do this to Michigan. Governor Engler did. At one point, early in his first term, Michigan actually had a surplus of funds. Engler decided to give it to other states for favors...that's what started this, it has been a long time coming....

so as a united nation it has been proven by one governors act that solidarity even betweenstates is a fallacy.... how long will this act be remembered????

lets never forget just as the unions CEO's brought security and medical coverage to the masses it will also take away...

Joke still has merit and hints of truth.

not as a nation, but as a state, the state of Michigan shouldremember gov. Engler's stupidity at least until it drags itself out of the recession. Maybe the whole state is not in one, but this area sure it. When you go applying for jobs, and they say that they have over 300 applications already...

Michigan is a union state, and that serves as it's demise as well. Jobs going overseas because of the costs here in Michigan. Yeh, unions do a lot for the masses

Maybe if we dump enough Canadian garbage in our state, it will end up helping us out of the recession

About the advancements in medicine subject, I would want to know exactly how long a wait there was before the surgeries were performed. Yes, I know, this is a joke, and I am being too serious, but you also have to realize that some of these other countries don't have quite the same malpractice problems, and research restrictions that we have here.

As for the importation of politicians, we do have an Austrian governor in California. Plus, I've taken notice of the increasing mobility of politicians for political reasons in recent decades. The Bushes come to mind, starting with W's grandfather's New England base, and the family moving to Texas following his (probably lucrative) investment work for Hitler in WWII, which nobody seems to want to mention. I'm sure the political connections with Harriman allowed Grandpa Bush to invest quite well in Texas oil, and the rest is history...

Then there has been the mobility of certain members of the Kennedy clan to establish political bases in strategic locations. The Rockefellers did the same. So has Hillary. Obama??? well...the guy's legally American, apparently, but his mobility from what little I read is extremely interesting. His family must have been extremely wealthy or had wealthy connections to manipulate his progress from Honolulu to Indonesia, through a broken marriage and 2 Islamic fathers, an at least partially Islamic upbringing, back to Honolulu and then on to Ivy League colleges. I consider myself fairly well familiar with current events, and even though I do not follow every election, I have not heard of this guy beyond 2 years ago. Strangely enough, he might be the best choice, since, apparently a vast majority of his party's members are voting that way. My issue is primarily with mobility and background, and I would prefer better choices to vote for.

Bushes ties to the Carrington group should have placed every American on alert of what multi-national corporations are capable of is setting the path in which way a government operates or governs its citizens
