An elderly man suffered a massive heart attack. The family drove wildly to
get him to the emergency room.

After what seemed like a very long wait, the ER Doctor appeared,wearing his
scrubs and a long face. Sadly, he said, "I'm afraid he is brain-dead, but
his heart is still beating."

"Oh, Dear God," cried his wife, her hands clasped against her cheeks with
shock! *"We've never had a Democrat in the family before!"

of course, he was denied medical care because he couldnt afford to pay
for it...IOW he was a republican.
