Subject: Political Joke -Disclaimer:May Not Be Funny To You

Written By: Hairspray on 03/13/03 at 11:16 a.m.

President George W. Bush and Colin Powell are drinking in a pub close to Old Town Square in Prague. A guy walks in and asks the bartender, "Isn't that Bush and Powell sitting over there?" The barman says, "Yep, that's them."

So the guy walks over and says, "Wow, this is a real honor. What are you guys doing in here?"

Bush says, "We're planning WW III," and the guy says, "Really? What's going to happen?"

Bush says, "Well, we're going to kill 40 million Iraqis this time and one blonde with big boobs."

A little perplexed the guy exclaimed, "A blonde with big boobs? Why kill a blonde with big boobs?"

Bush turns to Powell, punches him on the shoulder and says, "See, smart butt?! I told you no one would worry about the 40 million Iraqis.

I didn't find it funny, but did find it interesting.

I thought there would be more of a response, but perhaps it was too distasteful.

My apologies.

Here is another one that may not be funny to everyone.  It showed up by e-mail as one of those "forward it to as many like-minded persons as you can" pleas.




February 14, 2003.  Today it was reported that severe earthquakes  have occurred in 10 different locations in France. The severity was  measured in excess of 10 on the Richter Scale. The cause was the  56,681 dead American soldiers buried in French soil rolling over in  their graves. According to the American Battle Monuments Commission  there are 26,255 Yankee dead from World War I buried in 4 cemeteries in France. There are 30,426 American dead from World War II buried  in 6 cemeteries in France. These 56,681 brave American heroes died in  their youth to liberate a country which is guilty of shameful  unspeakable behavior in the 21st century. May the United States of  America never forget their sacrifice as we find ways to forcefully  deal with the Godforsaken unappreciative, forgetful country of France!
