A cowboy from Texas attends a social function where Barack Obama is trying to gather more support for his Health Plan.
Once he discovers the cowboy is from President Bush's home area, he starts to belittle him by talking in a southern drawl and single syllable words.
As he was doing that, he kept swatting at some flies that were buzzing around his head. The cowboy says, "Y'all havin' some problem with them circle flies?"
Obama stopped talking and said, "Well, yes, if that's what they're called, but I've never heard of circle flies."
"Well Sir," the cowboy replies, "circle flies hang around ranches. They're called circle flies because they're almost always found circling around the back end of a horse."
"Oh," Obama replies as he goes back to rambling. But, a moment later he stops and bluntly asks, "Are you calling me a horse's ass?"
"No, Sir," the cowboy replies, "I have too much respect for the citizens of this country to call their President a horse's ass."
"That's a good thing," Obama responds and begins rambling on once more.
After a long pause, the cowboy, in his best Texas drawl says, "Hard to fool them flies, though."
Snnrrrk!
The other day I sent this to my husband’s cousin, a well-loved retired doctor in Alabama. He’s in his 80s now and still sharp as a tack. He replied, “The cowboy should have just told him he was a horse’s a**.”
That was funnier than the original joke.
Geez, Sparky, that one’s been around since at least Clinton.
Just as applicable now since we have another Donkey azz in the WH!
Yep, not only around a horse’s arse, but usually swarming around a fresh pile of cow manure!!! :)
I think I fixed it for you. Though I probably didn't go far enough. It could have been Hoover or even Wilson. I don’t have any first hand reports beyond FDR (an 88 year old neighbor is pretty sure this joke was told about FDR).

Must have been racist flies.
Yeah, but the horse***t from Obama is especially powerful.
Thanks for posting that. I laughed
who cares if it has been told before?
And everybody believed his didn’t stink.
ROTFLOL Good one.
Why would ya’ll heap disparagement on a horse?
My horse takes exception to being compared to the BIG zero. My fella is a gelding and he has more ba*** than Dear Leader.
P. S. Is ba*** profane?
Well, you know it had to be true about LBJ since he was the biggest pile of horsespit in my lifetime.
This is a made-up story, cuz I’m not sure any self-respecting fly would circle Obama.
