Bush and a secret service agent are taking a stroll when they come upon a little girl carrying a basket with a blanket over it. curious, Bush asks the girl, "what's in the basket?"

"New baby kittens," she replies, and opens the basket to show him.

"How nice," says Bush. "What kind are they?"

"Republicans," says the little girl.

Bush smiles, pats the little girl on the head and continues on.

Three weeks later, Bush is taking another stroll, this time with Karl Rove. they see the little girl with the basket, and Bush says, "Watch this, Karl --- it's really cute."

They approach the little girl. Bush greets her and asks how the kittens are doing. "Fine," she says.

Smirking, he nudges Rove and asks the little girl, "And what kind of kittens are they?"

"Democrats," she replies.

Aghast, Bush sputters, "But three weeks ago you said they were Republicans!"

"They were," she says. "But now their eyes are open."
