Found this on Serenity Browncoats. Made me laugh.
President George Bush was visiting an elementary school today and he visited
one of the classes. The students are in the middle of a discussion related to words
and their meanings.
The teacher asked the President if he would like to lead the class in the discussion
of the word, "tragedy." So the illustrious leader asked the class for an example of a
"tragedy."
One little boy stands up and offers, "If my best friend, who lives next door, is playing
in the street and a car comes along and runs him over, that would be a tragedy."
"No," says Bush, "that would be an ACCIDENT."
A little girl raises her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children drove off a cliff, killing
everyone involved, that would be a "tragedy."
"I'm afraid not," explains Mr. President. "That's what we would call a GREAT LOSS."
The room goes silent. No other children volunteered.
President Bush searches the room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an
example of a tragedy?"
Finally, way in the back of the room, a small boy raises his hand. In a quiet voice he
says, "If Air Force One, carrying Mr. Bush, was struck by a missile and blown up to
smithereens, by a terrorist like Osama bin Laden, that would be a tragedy."
"Fantastic," exclaims Bush, "that's right. And can you tell me WHY that would be a
TRAGEDY?"
"Well," says the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident, and it certainly wouldn't be
a great loss."
Don't say this ain't funny now....

I remember hearing this one a couple years ago (a version of it, anyway).
Yep, still funny!

George Bush goes to a primary school to talk to the kids to get a little PR. After his talk he offers question time.
One little boy puts up his hand and George asks him his name.
"Stanley," responds the little boy.
"And what is your question, Stanley?"
"I have 4 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?
Third, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden?"
Fourth, why are we so worried about gay-marriage when 1/2 of all Americans don't have health insurance?
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 his name.
"Little Johnnie" he responds.
"And what is your question, Little Johnnie?"
"Actually Sir, I have 6 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?
Third, whatever happened to Osama Bin Laden?
Fourth, why are we so worried about gay marriage when 1/2 of all Americans don't have health insurance?
Fifth, why did the recess bell go off 20 minutes
early?
And sixth, what the F*#K happened to Stanley?"

That's not funny,Citizen.
Stanley was a person, he had feelings, and a family.

I thought Iowa was fictional?
I think that those inhuman people from the UP of Mich (we call them Euppers) stole him away. That place scares me. 5 miles over a bridge into banjo music playing, Deleverance! Give me the willys just thinking about it!
I have crossed the bridge a few times and I am convinced that the UP is in another dimension. How else could that bridge stay up in that wind?
Back to topic. Good jokes.
poor, poor Stanley.

I thought Stanley was flat, and he got mailed places. That would explain his disappearance, yes?
