Speaking German In Texas

Near Fredericksburg , Texas , where there is a large German-speaking population, a farmer walking down a country road notices a man drinking from his pond with his hand.

The farmer shouted:  
 "Trink das wasser nicht. Die  kuhen haben dahin gesheissen.

Which means:  (
 "Don't drink the water, the cows have sh** in it.)

The man shouted back: 
 "I'm from New York and  just down here campaigning for Obama's health care plan, I can't  understand you.  Please speak in English.

The farmer replied: 
 "Use two hands, you'll  get more.
