Jokes are democratic. Telling one right has nothing to do with having money or being educated. It’s a knack, like hammering a nail straight.

Garrison Keillor
A boy is hitchhiking on a country road. A car stops for him, and the driver asks, “Are you a Republican or a Democrat?”
“Democrat,” says the boy, and the car speeds off.
Another car stops, and the driver asks, “Are you a Republican or a Democrat?”
“Democrat,” says the boy, and the car speeds off.
This happens two or three times, and the boy decides he’s giving the wrong answer. The next car that stops is a convertible driven by a beautiful blonde. “Are you a Republican or a Democrat?” she asks.

Finally he can’t control himself any longer. “Stop!” he hollers. “Let me out! I’ve only been a Republican for ten minutes and already I feel like screwing somebody!”
from Republican Party Reptile, by P.J. O’Rourke, 1987

Puns
