Well, I went ahead and bought that dog. For ten dollars I figured, like some of the PM stocks there couldn’t be much of a downside and it wouldn’t cost me that much to feed him. As it turned out, it was not such a bad trade.
Me and that dog are making a fortune these days. We travel around the countryside having a good time. I sit him up on the tail gate of the truck and hung a sign around his neck. ‘World’s Greatest Talking Liar’. Course folks are interested in seeing such a sight and hearing him talk. I charge $10.00 a head. Sure enough, that dog tells some whoppers. Things like, ” Donald Trump is a racist.” ” I never deleted any emails.” ” My health is perfectly fine, I even have a letter from my vet to prove it.” ” I’m going to give ya’all free college, free medical care, and the rich folks are gonna pay for it.”
Funny thing, even with a sign telling people he is the world’s biggest liar, a lot of folks believe him. Not a single person has asked for their $10 dollars back, so I guess they are happy with paying his ‘speaker fees’. He tells them to be sure and donate to his Lying Dog Foundation, and they will be sent a prayer cloth and a bottle of Angel Pixie Dust in return for their pay for play donation. And that the Foundation is a charitable outfit, even if the IRS doesn’t say it is. It gives money to the homeless and starving puppies in Haiti. Or so he tells em.
The other night while sitting on the front porch counting up the stacks of ten dollar bills, plus the donations, I asked him if he ever, even just once, felt bad about telling all those lies? That ole talking dog coughed a few dozen times and finally said, ” Farmboy, those folks aint dumb, they know I am lying through my teeth. Why I’ve been caught in so many lies they finally quit counting. But ya see, above all else, Im a Democrat, and that’s good enough for them, and they expect me to to tell lies.”
Did I mention the dogs name? I asked him once and he said, ” Hillary”. Said his daddy’s name was Bill, but that some guy named Obama mostly raised him. I reckon he dont lie all the time. I asked him if he had any other money making ideas and he said, “Yeah, we need to get T shirts made up that say, ‘ I’m with that lying dog over there.’ He might be a liar, but he has a God given knack for getting folk to send him their money. Wouldn’t surprise me none if he ran for President one day. He is that good a liar. And as he says, ” It wouldnt be the first time we had a liar in the White House.”
But if you think he is living the dog’s life, I have to tell you it’s not all biscuits and gravy for him. He suffers terribly from fleas. Worse infestation I’ve ever seen. Always scratching, rolling in the dirt, sometimes he even tries to run from them. Poor boy is tormented night and day, they just wont leave him alone. He calls em, ‘Republicans’, like its some kind of cuss word. Hates em he does !
