Hooray for Bush!
The following are examples of political cartoons that have been swirling around since Bush took office.
Bush's Tragedy
One day, President Bush visited an elementary school. All the kids were so excited to get to meet the President. He began to talk to them and asked them to define the word ''tragedy.''
"Well," one girl replied, "If my mommy ran over my dog, Rover, that would be a tragedy!"
The President smiled at the little girl and said, "No, sweetie. That would be an accident! Can anyone give it a try?"
A little boy sitting across the room raised his hand and said, "I know! I know! If our bus driver ran off of a cliff and killed everyone!"
The President shook his head and said, "No son. That would be a great loss! Doesn't anyone know of a good example of a tragedy?"
A small girl raised her hand and said, "Well, Mr. President, if you and Laura were in Air Force One and it was hit by a missile and blown to smithereens, most people would think that that was a tragedy!"
"Very good," he said. "And what was your reason for that answer?"
"Well," she said, "It would not be an accident and it sure would not be a great loss!"
Stamp Out Bush
Bush has launched a new first class stamp featuring his portrait.
On the very day the stamps are released they sell like hot cakes and Bush is enjoying the revenue of course.
Before long, complaints start flooding in like wildfire saying the stamps won't stick. Bush is unimpressed and so sends out his most trusted to check out on the retailers and the customers to see what's what!
Bush's agent return to report his findings:
"Mr president, there is nothing wrong with stamp"
"So why the complaints?" asks Bush
"People are spitting on the wring side of the stamp Mr President" came reply.
America's most intelligent President
An aircraft is about to crash. There are five passengers on
board, but unfortunately only 4 parachutes. The first passenger says "I'm
Shaquille O'Neill, the best NBA basketball player. The Lakers need me, it
would be unfair to them if I died". So he takes the first parachute and
jumps.
The second passenger, Hillary Clinton, says "I am the wife of the former
President of the United States. I am also the most dedicated woman
in the world, a Senator in New York and America's potential future
President. She takes one of the parachutes and jumps.
The third passenger, George W. Bush, says " I am the President of the United States of America. I have a huge responsibility in world politics. And apart from that, I am the most intelligent President in the history of the country and I have a
responsibility to my people not to die". So he takes a parachute and
jumps.
The fourth passenger, the Pope, says to the fifth passenger, a ten
year old schoolboy "I am already old. I have already lived my life, as good
person and a priest I will give you the last parachute". The boy replies
"No problem, there is also a parachute for you. America's most
intelligent President has taken my schoolbag..."
Bush does it again
During a propaganda tour, president Bush visits a school to
explain his politics to kids. He invites the kids to ask him questions.
Bobby stands up and tells him "Mr. President, I got 3 questions:"
1. How come, that although the count of votes was not in your favor, you still won the election?
2. Why do you want to attack Iraq without an imminent reason?
3. Don't you also consider the bombing of Hiroshima the biggest
terrorist attack of all times?
Before the president can answer, the recess bell rings,
and the kids leave the room.
After they came back, Bush invited them again to ask questions.
Joey stands up and tells him "Mr. President, I got 5 questions:"
1. How come, that although the count of votes was not in your
favor, you still won the election?
2. Why do you want to attack Iraq without an imminent reason?
3. Don't you also consider the bombing of Hiroshima the biggest
terrorist attack of all times?
4. Why did the recess bell ring 20 minutes early?
5. Where's Bobby?

some of us in America have the same questions.
I felt it was questions that the whole world has been asking for awhile and the answers may not be what we really wish.
They are presented here like political jokes but it is actually not a joking matter, even what I understand about the whole situation I find with distaste.
