The Haircut

One day a florist went to a barber for a haircut.

After the cut, he asked about his bill, and the barber replied, 'I cannot Accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The florist was pleased and left the shop.

When the barber went to open his shop the next morning, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen roses waiting for him at his door.

Later, a cop comes in for a haircut, and when he tries to pay his bill, The barber again replied, 'I cannot accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The cop was happy and left the shop.

The next morning when the barber went to open up, there was a 'thank you' card and a dozen donuts waiting for him at his door.

Then a Congressman came in for a haircut, and when he went to pay his bill, The barber again replied, 'I can not accept money from you. I'm doing community service this week.' The congressman was very happy and left the shop.

The next morning, when the barber went to open up, there were a dozen congressmen lined up waiting for a free haircut.

And that, my friends, illustrates the fundamental difference between the citizens of our country and the politicians who run it.

Give 'em free haircuts. They probably pay $275 for 'em anyway.

The last time I checked Harris was a doctor, not a congressman 9:32. Kratovil is the slimy lawyer, Harris is the dignified, honest, intellegent doctor that would make a fine congressman.

Hey 9:43, why don't you go back to school and get a real education. Andy Harris is NOT and NEVER has been a congressman. It never says he is. He is a STATE SENATOR you ignorant troll. He is an anesthesiologist (sp) as well. I bet you don't even vote, do you?

Did you mean to direct that at 9:43? They stated Andy wasn't a congressman.

2:59 is just out of touch with reality! he or she is the one who needs an education, not 9:43. A flaming liberal who cannot read.
