Country Politics

A busload of politicians was driving down a country road on its way to an important political function, when suddenly one of the wheels burst, and the driver lost control, running the bus right off the road and into a local barn.

The old farmer who owned the barn was in a nearby field, and when he saw the accident he got off his tractor to investigate. Upon inspecting the bus and his barn, he proceeded to dig a large hole, dragged each polician off the bus, and buried every one of them.

A few days later, the local sheriff was cruising by when he spotted the smashed bus still lodged in the side of the farmer's barn. He pulled over and asked the old farmer where all the politicians had gone.

The old farmer told him he had buried them.

The sheriff exclaimed, "Lordy, were they all dead?"

The old farmer said, "Well, some of them said they weren't, but you know how them crooked politicians lie."
