Is Obama Smarter Than a 5th Grader?

This is my Obama adaptation of an old joke that has been around a long time:

President Obama feeling grand about his success on the Jay Leno show to connect with people decided to go to Texas to connect with those arrogant Texans.  Since Texas is an agricultural and oil producing state he decided to take his Green Energy policy to pitch to those Texans.

He decided it would be smart to go to a small rural Texas town and visit the local grade school.  There he would convince the students about the merits of his Green Energy policy and they in turn would go home and convince their parents.

The local school superintendent directed Obama to Mrs. Platt's 5th Grade class.  He was greeted with stony silence from the kids, but he smiled broadly and knowingly as he asked if any of them knew about his Green Energy policy.

After a long silent moment a little boy raised his hand and Obama called on him.  The boy said, "I know that grass is green."  Obama replied, "Yes, grass certainly is green."  After a moment another little boy raised his hand and Obama called on him.  The boy said, " Cows, and horses, and goats eat green grass."  Obama replied, "Yes, indeed, cows, horses, and goats do eat green grass."

Another long silent moment.  Then a bright-eyed little girl on the front row raised her hand and Obama called on her.  She said, "Cows, and horses, and goats all eat green grass, but do you know why when they poop cows make paddies, horses make small clumps, and goats make little pills?"  Obama was somewhat taken aback and stammered, "Uh, well, uh, hum, uh no, as a matter of fact I do not know why?" to which the little girl replied, "Then, why do you want to talk about Green Energy when you don't know shit?"
