A Harley biker is riding by the zoo in Washington , DC when
he sees a little girl leaning into the lion's cage.
Suddenly, the lion grabs her by the collar of her jacket and
tries to pull her inside to slaughter her, under the eyes of
her screaming parents.
The biker jumps off his Harley, runs to the cage and hits
the lion square on the nose with a powerful punch.
Whimpering from the pain the lion jumps back letting go of
the girl, and the biker brings her to her terrified parents,
who thank him endlessly. A reporter has watched the whole
event.
The reporter addressing the Harley rider says, 'Sir, this
was the most gallant and brave thing I've seen a man do in
my whole life.'
The Harley rider replies, 'Why, it was nothing, really, the
lion was behind bars. I just saw this little kid in danger
and acted as I felt I should.'
The reporter says, 'Well, I'll make sure this won't go
unnoticed. I'm a journalist, you know, and tomorrow's paper
will have this story on the front page... So, what do you do
for a living and what political affiliation do you have?'
The biker replies, 'I'm a U.S. Marine and a Republican.'
The journalist leaves.
The following morning the biker buys the paper to see if it
indeed brings news of his actions, and reads, on the front
page:

That pretty much sums up the media's approach to the news
these days.
Dummy UP, don't scare me. What do you mean only 6 more years? Can I not own or ride a Harley after age 67? I was planning on buying a Harley and heading off into the sunset.

You are not allowed to own one until you are 67, the law.You can ride one til you are 102, 1 hour a year, also the law. You need to brag about it, also the law.
If the law requires every male over 67 to own or previously owned a Harley, then it is a good law. Riding the Harley fulfils your daily requirement of vitamin bug. Pardon me for a while now because the wife is calling me to come to the supper table to get my daily dose of vitamin bean.

I'm not impressed Dummy Up since there is absolutely no reply to the fact that he was a Marine, a Republican, or the fact that the News Media slants the news.
