Three guys go into a restaurant

A Republican, in a wheelchair, entered a restaurant one afternoon and asked the waitress for a cup of coffee. The Republican looked across the restaurant and asked, "Is that Jesus sitting over there?" The waitress nodded "yes!" So, the Republican requested that she give Jesus a cup of coffee, on him.
The next patron to come in was a Libertarian, with a hunched back. He shuffled over to a booth, painfully sat down, and asked the waitress for a cup of hot tea. He also glanced across the restaurant and asked, "Is that Jesus, over there?" The waitress nodded, so the Libertarian asked her to give Jesus a cup of hot tea, "My treat."
The third patron, to come into the restaurant, was a Democrat on crutches. He hobbled over to a booth, sat down and hollered, "Hey there honey! How's about getting me a cold mug of Miller Light!" He, too, looked across the restaurant and asked, "Isn't that God's boy over there?" The waitress nodded, so the Democrat directed her to give Jesus a cold beer. "On my bill," he said loudly.
As Jesus got up to leave, he passed by the Republican, touched him and said, "For your kindness, you are healed." The Republican felt the strength come back into his legs, got up and began to praise the Lord.
Jesus passed by the Libertarian, touched him and said, "For your kindness, you are healed." The Libertarian felt his back straightening up, he raised his hands and he, too, began to praise the Lord.
Then, Jesus walked, with a huge smile on his face, towards the Democrat. The Democrat jumped up and yelled, "Don't touch me....... I'm on disability."

Not necessarily meant to be funny, just an illustration as to how this country has changed. Very sad. . .

I'm not sure I understand. Is it that Democrats are more likely to go on disability, or is the implication that the Democrat is faking his disability, and that Republicans and Libertarians are less likely to do that? Or maybe Democrats are lazy and would rather stay on disability than be cured? None of that makes much sense to me.

So I'm right - It doesn't make any sense, which is why no explanation is possible.

I must, since I know how to spell it correctly. Actually, I think people who don't like democrats are the ones who "understand" the joke because they vaguely perceive it as a dig at democrats, and democrats may not understand it because it doesn't stand up to critical analysis.
