The Coyote

Governors of two states jogging with their dogs along a trail. Coyote jumps out and starts to attack dog:

California:

#1. Governor starts to intervene and then realizes he should stop, the coyote is doing what is natural.

#2. Call animal control. Animal control captures coyote and spends $200 testing it for diseases and $500 relocating it.

#3. Call Veterinarian... Vet collects dead dog and spends $200 testing it for diseases.

#4. Governor goes to hospital and spends $3,500 getting checked for diseases from the coyote and getting bite wound bandaged.

#5. Running trail gets shut down for 6 months while wildlife services conduct a $100,000 survey to make sure the area is clear of dangerous animals.

#6. Governor spends $50,000 and starts a coyote awareness program for people who live in the area.

#7. State legislature spends $2 million investigating how to better handle rabies and how to possibly eradicate it.

#8. Governor's security agent fired for not stopping the attack and letting the Governor try to intervene.

#9. Cost $75,000 to train new security agent.

#10. PETA protests the relocation of the coyote.


Texas:

#1. Governor spends $1.23 on a .380 ACP Gold Dot Hollow Point and he and the dog keep jogging.

And we wonder why California is BROKE.

(Thank you Governor Perry! And thanks Rod for sharing!)

  1. Yes, this is interesting and I wasn't aware of all the info about the California governor yet it is NO surprise as this state is built on sinking sand and at any time will be going belly up or DC will look at the crisis as another opportunity to spend more taxpayer money. And in regard to Governor Perry it looks as though the attack dogs in the MSM are like coyotes going after him. Raising an issue about the cost of his residence and I am sure more will be coming while his Democritter opponent will be said to be a White knight.
