George Bush was thrilled at finally being able to sleep in the White House, but something very strange happened. One the first night, he was awakened by George Washington's ghost. Welcoming the opportunity to communicate with the father of our country, Bush asked, "President Washington, what is the best thing that I can do for the nation?". "Set an honest and honourable example, just like I did," Washington said. Later that night, the ghost of Thomas Jefferson appeared in the bedroom and Bush asked him the same question. "Cut taxes and reduce the size of government," Jefferson said. Still later, the ghost of Abraham Lincoln appeared and Bush asked once again, "Abe, please tell me, what is the best thing that I can do to help the nation?" "Go see a play," replied Lincoln. --~--~--~-- How many members of the Bush Administration are needed to replace a light bulb? The answer is SEVEN: (1) One to deny that a light bulb needs to be replaced. (2) One to attack and question the patriotism of anyone who asks questions about the light bulb. (3) One to blame the previous administration for the need for a new light bulb. (4) One to arrange the invasion of a country rumored to have a secret stockpile of light bulbs. (5) One to get together with Vice President Cheney and award a million-dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton Industries for supplying a light bulb. (6) One to arrange a photo-op session showing Dubya changing the light bulb while dressed in a flight suit and wrapped in an American flag. (7) And finally, one to explain to Dubya the difference between screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.
