IN a field one summer’s day a Grasshopper was hopping about, chirping and singing to its heart’s content. An Ant passed by, bearing along with great toil an ear of corn he was taking to the nest.
“Why not come and chat with me,†said the Grasshopper, “instead of toiling and moiling in that way?â€Â
“I am helping to lay up food for the winter,†said the Ant, “and recommend you to do the same.â€Â
“Why bother about winter?†said the Grasshopper; “we have got plenty of food at present.†But the Ant went on its way and continued its toil. When the winter came the Grasshopper had no food, and found itself dying of hunger, while it saw the ants distributing every day corn and grain from the stores they had collected in the summer.
No worries, though, the grasshopper decided. For he was entitled to some of that corn, being hungry and all, and to deny him food was a moral failing on the part of the Ants, whose greed was so loathsome that it should be punished by those who respected social justice. So the grasshopper complained loudly to his leaders about this terrible inequity in food distribution.
Which is when the state — ever compassionate and wise — stepped in, confiscated ALL the food, and divided it out fairly and evenly among ALL of God’s creatures (save for the bits they kept for themselves, and for those who’d especially helped them to power, all of whom received extra rations for being the most equal of all), and not a soul went hungry that winter, though nearly all grew quite weak — a small price to pay for equality of outcome. And the greater good.
Then the Grasshopper knew:
“IT IS BEST TO PREPARE FOR THE DAYS OF NECESSITY. BY VOTING FOR DEMOCRATIC SOCIALISTS WHO CARE!â€Â
From Rush Limbaugh’s interview with Sarah Palin:
“RUSH: But one thing I do want to ask you about: Obama’s comment yesterday to the plumber who said, “Why are you going to raise my taxes?” and Obama said, “Well, it’s not that I want to punish you. It’s that I want to — we want to spread the wealth around,””
Done on the street, that would be known as a mugging.
But a mugger would be a free-lance socialist, no?
Then the grasshopper and ants together had a massive financial/foodstock crisis due to the lack of food supply and a revolution took place.
Grasshopper legs are tasty with some cayenne pepper and a little butter.
“And then the ants, being the captitalistic pigs that they are, rose up against the state. But the state, being wise and powerful, in the interests of ALL creatures, smashed them. The worst of the conspirators met justice at the end of the Peoples Rope, the rest are being…cared for, at…hospitals, where the brainwashing they received from the Imperialist Pig Capitalist Oppressors can be washed away, so they can once again toil, not for themselves, but for all.”
“By the way, rations will be cut in half, until further notice. That is all…”
Then a bird comes and eats them all.
Fucking racist birds.
Plumber, mugger, whutev.
Inevitably, someone’s going to point to this post as proof positive that the right-wing mythology that wealth comes only from hard work is still alive and well.
…..that following year, the ants were required to have %10 Grasshoppers on staff, for which they would receive a 3 kernel patriotism credit!
THAT’S THE CHANGE WE NEED HOPPERS!

Cornholed!
In the Disney version, they fed the damn grasshopper. But he earned it by playing at the ant dances.
For real if we’re gonna do this hard left socialism thing like Venezuela fine but I would have a lot appreciated more time to get ready and stuff. I don’t even know how you’re supposed to plan for this sort of thing. Maybe Fidel Castro could put together a quick PowerPoint… Does anyone have his email?
hf: I would suggest planning that involves foodstuffs, armor piercing rounds and several dynamite caches but I’m considered “excitable.”
I like Henny Penny better than the ant and the grasshopper. I always felt sorry for the merry lively grasshopper who was just basically a funlovin’ guy who never thought very far ahead. He did bring the tunes, though.
In Henny Penny, the slugs and layabouts that don’t get any bread in the end, you pretty much hate their lazy guts by the end of the story. Henny penny always gives them a chance to pitch in and work to their pathetic abilities for a share of bread. But they don’t lift a furry finger. And she busts her hen butt and makes that bread.
I always wondered at the animals not jumping on Henny Penny and eating her after she’s a full of self-made stuffin, though. I’m she is the chicken in the pot in the Obamabot version.
See we always go back to beans and guns. I want so much more out of my socialisms. Beans and guns and berets? That would be a start.
dumpster juice
one of the three basic food groups
Epilogue:
Henceforth, the you insects were taught that it was wrong to judge the grasshoppers, despite their capricious and slothful lifestyle. After all, they were necessary for the entire community, as the only way that their insect society would ever really advance would be to forcibly ensure it’s diversity. And anyway, the grasshopper behaviour was such, owing to it’s culture. Which, as any enlightened insect could see, was clearly as relevant, productive, vital, and necessary as the loathsome, greedy, capitalistic ants.
If the whole group got dragged down to the level of it’s lowest common denominators, under the guise of fairness, then so be it! The society’s terrirory had grown rich and was well developed due to the diligence of the generations of hard working ants that had preceded them.
And, at least they all got trophies for trying; and a few kernals each.
But, years later, an colony of marauding red army ants, grown large in number through many years of selfless toil and sacrifice, over-ran the area; and forever more enjoyed the fruits of the new territory.
Then in perpetuity, at an annual celebration marking the date of the annexation, the red ants celebrated the original grasshoppers who paved the way for red ants historic victory, by having the audacity to mau-mau the flak-catchers…

“…planning…”?
Nobody said anything about dynamite. Besides, I’ve got a kitchen sink.
I live among ants. I am an ant. Grasshoppers in the state house. Ants down here, so far, though.
…the following year, the industrious (and evil and greedy) ants hid half their food, so that their children would not be hungry like the little grasshoppers. They were promptly turned in to the Secret Police Beetles by the very children they were helping, because the children had been taught proper behavior by the State’s Education Ladybugs.
I see space rocks have crossed someone elses mind.
Maybe Henny Penny was a little RED hen, and she didn’t like feeding the aristocracy. Hens of the world, unite?
IN that case everything I know is wrong.
…the following year, the ants moved most of their corn production, processing and storage offshore.
http://www.sacpermaculture.com/hennypenny.htm is where you can read the story.
It’s a good thing Henny Penny also made all the saltpeter and built all the surface to air missles.
“In a tyranny, join the secret police.”
And the irony is that, come da revolution, those reactionary leftist professors really expect to be wielding the whip.

Ant and the Grasshopper II: Next Spring
“Seed corn? What seed corn?”
I’m unclear here. Were the ants representative of the dominant culture? Or was it the g-hop? So much context missing.
And now for some light entertainment

DOMINANT CULTURE…

The ants obviously won life’s lottery.
And the grasshopper was the victim of predatory lenders.
Insectists!
ppft, ants. The ants will always work anyway, so just take whatever corn you need from them. They’re like honeybees and maples and stuff.
Oh, hey, gonna be an election booth dude this time around. Got a tiny spy cam for it and everything

There is unrest in the forest, there is trouble with the trees…
Though I swear it switches to past tense later in the song. Weird. I’d never noticed that.
ha. dunno about that. more like I’m avoiding hell or something.
ok, not true but I keep stuff to myself at times
anyway, I’m in NY, so I don’t expect to see any funny bidness. I mean, why bother? If I was in Ohio or something that would be different

Then a Walrus and a Carpenter (or, at any rate, some dude with a really bitchin’ walrus-like ‘stache) entered, stage left, and proceeded to eat up all of the little grasshoppers. Every one.
HF, you guys will see the specifics announced in the major newspapers and on the local tv stations, plus CNN( FOX will be closed).
You have to worry about warm clothes though. Winters in Alaska are brutal.
Make sure to get friendly with fellow exiles. Mutual help will be indispensable.
I also recommend to start organize underground movement right now.
Get all the addresses and paroles established beforehand.
Buy a book about survival skills in Alaska, and how to kill the bear with the knife honed from the prison spoon.
Good luck…

I found another version of the ant story, got it in an email April ’07.
The ant works hard in the withering heat all summer long, building his house and laying up supplies for the winter. The grasshopper thinks the ant is a fool and laughs and dances and plays the summer away.
Come winter, the shivering grasshopper calls a press conference and demands to know why the ant should be warm and well fed while others are cold and starving.
CBS, NBC, PBS, CNN, and ABC show up to provide pictures of the shivering grasshopper next to a video of the ant in his comfortable home with a table filled with food. America is stunned by the sharp contrast.
How can this be, that in a country of such wealth, this poor grasshopper is allowed to suffer so?
Kermit the Frog appears on Oprah with the grasshopper, and everybody cries when they sing, “It’s Not Easy Being Green.”
Jesse Jackson stages a demonstration in front of the ant’s house where the news stations film the group singing, “We shall overcome.” Jesse then has the group kneel down to pray to God for the grasshopper’s sake.
Nancy Pelosi & John Kerry exclaim in an interview with Larry King that the ant has gotten rich off the back of the grasshopper, and both call for an immediate tax hike on the ant to make him pay his fair share.
Finally, the EEOC drafts the Economic Equity and Anti-Grasshopper Act retroactive to the beginning of the summer. The ant is fined for failing to hire a proportionate number of green bugs and, having nothing left to pay his retroactive taxes, his home is confiscated by the government.
Hillary gets her old law firm to represent the grasshopper in a defamation suit against the ant, and the case is tried before a panel of federal judges that Bill Clinton appointed from a list of single-parent welfare recipients.
The ant loses the case.
The story ends as we see the grasshopper finishing up the last bits of the ant’s food while the government house he is in, which just happens to be the ant’s old house, crumbles around him because he doesn’t maintain it. The ant has disappeared in the snow. The grasshopper is found dead in a drug related incident and the house, now abandoned, is taken over by a gang of spiders who terrorize the once peaceful neighborhood.

“MORAL OF THE STORY: Be careful how you vote”
– Unless you’re a Grasshopper(D), in which case you may have as many as 73 chances to get it right.
lee, actually, I left this nightmare behind.
But I do enjoy GOP paranoia.
I also will relish the demise of the stupid party.
You know what my dream is?:- Self dissolving of the republican party.
theocons and other similar bigots ,and neocons establishing their own organisation. Conservatives and the followers of classic liberalism making their own party…
On November 5th I will be in the MGM Gran Foxwoods celebrating first step of the demise of GOP, well deserved one.
Anyone wants to join me? Drinks on me. I am heavily comped in that casino….

Comrade.
How old were you when you left the USSR? Sounds like you were old enough to learn some lessons.
– But don’t worry little Kossack. You’ll probably cry yourself to sleep face down in the casino punch bowl after a visit from the ghost of Bradys past, and your WonderBoy takes a header to join two other Leftwing losers, Kerry amd Gore, but kind bystanders won’t let even a Progressive drown.
sashal –
I’m OK with the right of the people to secede from the Union if they determine to, post-CW, anyway. You aren’t?
And, anyway, your Leftside comrades have their own sects – Greens, Socialists, Anti-warriors, etc – that art only held in check by having a Great Satan, the Republicans, to hate. If we go, so do you.
well if it according to the constitution, urt.
Why not…
You right, dems( I am not one of them, even though me and Buckley will be voting for Obama)have plenty of their own factions.
right now, I am not that concerned with their dissolution in the separate entities. They will need mutual unified effort to clean the mess GOP left

– Well you’re right in one way sashal. If by some miracle the Dems do get the chance, they should clean up the mess they created in the first place. The Rethugs crime was in spineless inaction.
– But even if they do win, you don’t seriously think any sort of cleanup will happen do you? You got the gang of three, Pelosi, Reid, and Obama talking about over a trillion dollars of increased nannystate welfare spending, and scamming their followers with a pack of lies about reducing taxes, ala Clinton. You’re being gamed once again little Kossack.

Q: pd = nishi?”
Who?
Sashal reminds me of a story Garrison Keilor used to tell about his Scandinavian ancestors who worked and scrimped and saved and sold everything they had so they could buy a ticket for a long, dangerous sailing journey across the North Atlantic, several months in cramped, foul conditions to get to the New World. They then invested all their savings in horses and wagons and the bare necessities to begin a perilous wagon train trip of many months and many thousand miles through the untamed frontier battling wild animals and Indians and the elements to finally settle in Minnesota- a barren, god-forsaken frozen fucking tundra just like they had left.
Sashal has managed to escape the Soviet and make to America, and now he wants to make America just like the place he left.

“At this point, none of the troll population is producing anything novel.”
– No material to work from. WonderBoy has no record to point to, other than “present”, and any talk of his past associations, even his present ones (read ACORN), is off limits for the MSM and the moonbats.

Some think it’s a sock puppet, there’s a case to be made.
Some think it’s something new. That notion isn’t looking too good.
I haven’t gotten bored with it yet myself, if that’s what you’re asking…

Sounds like a dumb question, but I submit it is one that needs to be answered.
Otherwise, it’s just a semi-ordered jumble of words.
Now that could get boring.

lee: I meant to point that out earlier: It seemed that the grasshoppers symbolized the lazy sloppy/underorganiaed classes, and the ants represented the industrious previously well-organized/endowed classes. Not getting your point, actually.

I’m not exactly sure what you’re talking about #203, but the ant is the capitalist, and a rugged individualist.
The grasshopper is a product of socialism, taught consequences can be avoided, the state will take care of you.
Think of the ant as Mitt Romney, and the grasshopper as thor.

I propose we create a new ethereal plane of joy and shared wealth where we can all reside, and it shall henceforth be named THE BLACKULACRUM. Just below that will be WESTDAKOTA, which will smell of just-rotting onions. Below that will be WYNONNA’S DEEP, an etched canyon lined with drums of garum and bogs of pitch.
I’m now going to eat some deliciously moist, petite cakes made of puppyhugs.

Well, that explain’s cynn’s “skulking neocon” comment from the other day. I thought I heard the evocation of classical antisemitic rhetoric in that phrase. Say ‘ello to Trollhammer, cynn!
Goddamn, what are they feeding the left these days?
he agreed to concession
of all the opression,
And that’s where it comes back to you.
And when you get down to it, that’s what’s driving the Obama campaign. Not concern for humanity, equality, or love of country. Just the accumulated BDS that has swelled like pus behind an angry red lesion of frustration, self-hatred, and entitlement. This is the theme of cynn, thor, sashal and the others. “You’re going to get yours now, neocon Jew.”
Cynn! Pants on fire!
I’m only kidding. Really!
No. I’m not.

Certainly we can find some authentically Socialist parables for our New Dawn.
It’s not a parable, of course, but anyone else know the tale “Stone Soup”?

Hey pd,
You’re like a Snickers Bar. Deliciously nutty, yet smooth and satisfying. One thing: 1000 Snickers Bars all at once could kill you.
Can you believe it? After all these years of the US trying to help other commies/socialists break free, now we are marching ourselves right into the trap – and willingly!
I’m convinced there needs to be IQ tests in order to vote. And I think the voting age should be raised to 25. sigh.
oh – here’s another good grasshopper/ant story from Michelle malkin:

PC @ 250. Yes. I’d even be willing to set it up with Trivial Pursuit type categories for potential voters to choose from. Not everyone who can’t do a quadratic equation shoud be disqualified from voting.
And if it turned out the grasshopper wasn’t really the grasshopper, but was instead actually some tapestry woven from speechwriters, ghostwriters and whatever reporters happen to be gawking its shapely ass? What then?
What then?

The only problem is holing up in your house is not a great excuse for missing work and that can be a career-limiting move. Also, Janet Reno is hell on siding.

Sorry, having trouble containing my enthusiasm. WOOT!

#273: Not true. I am an equal opportunity oppressor and only practice self loathing when I’m feeling masochistic.

Do the ants ever get a thank you or do they continue to get lampooned as racist rednecks?
Not to mention the baseball glove.
Bravo!

JD is a racist name. Why must you mock underage criminals?
What happens when all the ants become grasshoppers?
JD is a racist name.
Why bother with calling it a racist name. Just take the name part off and refer to the collective as the Grand Kleagle of the new incarnation of the Klan.
If mocking Indian immigrants is good enough for Senator Hairplugs, it’s good enough for me. BTW, I hear curry slurpees are a cure for alopecia!

This comment was sooooooooo wrong on so many different levels.
Bravo!
>>>RUBY RIDGE!!!
No no no. I’m not even close to joking. Anybody with a lick of sense knows better than to react in this way. Gotta learn from experience. IF and this is hypothetical – IF anybody is tempted to go this route, then just know you’ll be burned. Reality. Militias and shit like that is for losers.
– WonderBoy is juggling a aemed hand grenade, with the pin in hie teeth over the ACORN thing. McCain says hes finnaly got his game face on and his mojo bacl. We’ll see tonigt.
– The Obama team is trying to stonewall it, banking on the silence of the not so innocent MSM lambs.
– 14 states now. I don’t think he can keep the lid on, and keep playing see no evil much longer. Things are in a total mess in states like Penn and Ohio, and the courts are not buying the lies and deflections.
– People should start emailing their local Liberal rags, and ask wtf they’re not carrying it. Same with the networks.
– Senators getting involved, asking embarrassing questions. McCain camp offer to join O! people in investigating all irregularities. Obamatons blow it off and refuse to cooperate. claiming there’s nothing to it, just a GOP stunt. FEDs and FBI don’t seem to agree.
I’m with Dre,
I’m wondering when O’s bloc picks up the machetes and goes after the “cock-a-roaches,” a la Rwanda.
If you stand back and look hard at several cultural trends bundled together, you’ll see that many agitators, both overseas and domestically, would like to turn America’s relatively civil, “melting pot” society into something more a kin to Africa’s tribal “rule by Machete” system.
That way, you see, the same corrupt dynamics at work in tribal areas of Pashtun and Kenya can be brought to bear in America. And, once we degenerate into warring tribal factions (Jeff has written often about the “re-tribalization” of America underway), great states like Texas, Connecticut, and Washington will be reduced to bidding for the UN’s graces next to Zimbabwe, Arabia and Malaysia.
The things are stewing right now, it looks like we’re heading right down this path.
Meanwhile, China rises, unassailed, and its territory whole! Convenient, that, huh?
That was awesome.
