President Bush was visiting a primary school

[Renew Deal]

President Bush was visiting a primary school and he visited one of the
classes. They were in the middle of a discussion related to words and their
meanings. The teacher asked the President if he would like to lead the
discussion on the word "tragedy".

So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a "tragedy".
One little boy stood up and offered:

"If my best friend, who lives on a farm, is playing in the field and a
tractor runs over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy."

"No," said Bush, "that would be an accident."

A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove
over a cliff, killing everyone inside, that would be a tragedy."


"I'm afraid not," explained the president. "That's what we would call a
great loss."

The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Bush
searched the room.

"Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?"

Finally at the back of the room a small boy raised his hand.

In a quiet voice he said: "If Air Force One carrying You and Mrs. Bush was
struck by a "friendly fire" missile and blown to smithereens, that would be
a tragedy."

Fantastic!" exclaimed Bush. "That's right. And can you tell me why that
would be tragedy?"

"Well," says the boy, "It has to be a tragedy, because it certainly wouldn't
be a great loss and it probably wouldn't be an accident either."

BUSH TALKS WITH THE KIDS

George Bush goes to a primary school to talk about the war. After his
talk he offers question time.

One little boy puts up his hand and George asks him what his name is.

"Billy."

"And what is your question, Billy?"

"I have 3 questions. First, why did the USA invade Iraq without the
support of the UN? Second, why are you President when Al Gore got
more votes? And third, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden?"

Just then the bell rings for recess. George Bush informs the kiddies
that they will continue after recess.

When they resume George says, "OK, where were we? Oh that's right -
question time. Who has a question?"

Another little boy puts up his hand. George points him out and asks him what his name is. Steve."

"And what is your question, Steve?"

"I have 5 questions. First, why d! id the USA invade Iraq without the
support of the UN? Second, why are you President when Al Gore got more votes? Third, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden? Fourth, why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes early? And fifth, what the Hell happened to Billy?!
