Bush Joke
One night, George W. Bush is tossing restlessly in his White
House bed. He awakens to see George Washington standing
by him. Bush asks him, "George, what's the best
thing I can do to help the country?" "Set an honest
and honorable example, just as I did, " Washington
advises, then fades away.
The next night, Bush is astir again and sees the ghost of
Thomas Jefferson moving through the darkened bedroom.
Bush calls out, Tom, please! What is the best thing I could
do to help the country?" "Respect the Constitution,
as I did, " Jefferson advises, and dims from sight.
The third night, sleep is still not in the cards for Bush.
He wakes to see the ghost of F. D. R. hovering over his bed.
Bush whispers, "Franklin, what is the best thing
I could do to help the country?" "Help the less
fortunate, just as I did, " FDR replies, and fades
into the mists.
Bush isn't sleeping well the fourth night when he sees
another figure moving in the shadows. It is Abraham Lincoln's
ghost. "Abe, what is the best thing I can do right now,
to help the country?" Bush pleads. Abe thinks for
a second, smiles, and says "Go see a play."
