> A coyote jumps out and attacks theGovernor's dog, then bites the Governor.
>
> The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and then
> realizes he should stop because the coyote is only doing what is natural.
>
> He calls Animal Control. Animal Control captures the coyote and bills theState $200
> testing it for diseases and $500 for relocating it.
>
> He calls a veterinarian. The vet collects the dead dog and bills the State $200 testing it for diseases.
>

As a Californian, I must take issue with this "joke." 
1st.: Rick Perry's gun was a .380, not a .45.
2nd.: It wasn't a state issued gun. 
Otherwise. It's spot-on!

Ed---not a joke but I find it humorous. Most of the liberal media make fun of Gov Perry for shooting a coyote. California is a great state with great people except maybe my relatives in Riverside and San Diego.
