Lotta hate in this world

A Tourist walked into a Chinese curio shop in San Francisco. While

looking around at the exotic merchandise, he noticed a very lifelike,

life-sized, bronze statue of a rat. It had no price tag, but was so

incredibly striking the tourist decided he must have it. He took it to

the old shop owner and asked, "How much for the bronze rat?"


"Ahhh, you have chosen wisely! It is $12 for the rat and $100 for the


story," said the wise old Chinaman.


The tourist quickly pulled out twelve dollars. "I'll just take the


rat, you can keep the story".


As he walked down the street carrying his bronze rat, the tourist


noticed that a few real rats had crawled out of the alleys and sewers


and had begun following him down the street. This was a bit


disconcerting so he began walking faster.


A couple blocks later he looked behind him and saw to his horror the


herd of rats behind him had grown to hundreds, and they began

squealing.


Sweating now, the tourist began to trot toward San Francisco Bay .


Again, after a couple blocks, he looked around only to discover that the


rats now numbered in the MILLIONS, and were squealing and coming toward

him faster and faster.

Terrified, he ran to the edge of the Bay and threw the bronze rat as
far as he could into the Bay.


Amazingly, the millions of rats all jumped into the Bay after the
bronze rat and were all drowned.


The man walked back to the c urio shop in Chinatown .


"Ahhh," said the owner, "You have come back for story?"


"No sir," said the man, "I came back to see if you have a bronze
Democrat."


Just an email I received,
Chas
