From Chimpy and Pickles Remarks at Ask The Dimwit Event with Small Business Owners.

Southridge High School - Beaverton, Oregon

We're with Kathy Lacomte*. Kathy is a tree grower. (Applause.) Yes, there's a lot of trees. (Applause.) So what kind of trees?

MS. LeCOMPTE: We grow trees from seed, and we support the Christmas tree farms, the timber industry, and the wholesale nursery industry here in Oregon.

THE PRESIDENT: Very good. You're the seedling provider.

MS. LeCOMPTE: I'm the seedling provider. You're the seedling grower. We could work together.

THE PRESIDENT: See, I told her we have a tree farm on our ranch in Crawford. (Laughter.) It turns the trees -- seedlings she raises won't survive where we live. (Laughter.)

1. W is just so in touch with nature, isn't he?

Growin' those trees at the pig farm gives him something to chainsaw all to pieces when he needs to look manly for the cameras.

2. I wonder if Chimpy's farmhands and domestic help...

... receive a decent wage with benefits whilst he's writing the "working tree farm" off his taxes.
