There is plenty of anti-Bush humour around the web. This time I even happened to find some at our company intranet. There was this joke:<\/p>\n
\n\nGeorge W. Bush, the American President, meets with the Queen of England, Elizabeth II. He asks her, “Your Majesty, how do you run such an efficient government? Are there any tips you can give to me?”<\/p>\n
“Well,” says the Queen, “the most important thing is to surround yourself with intelligent people.”<\/p>\n
Bush frowns. “But how do I know the people around me are really intelligent?”<\/p>\n
The Queen takes a sip of tea. “Oh, that’s easy. You just ask them to answer an intelligence riddle.” The Queen pushes a button on her intercom. “Please send Tony Blair in here, would you?”<\/p>\n
Tony Blair walks into the room. “Yes, my Queen?”<\/p>\n
The Queen smiles. “Answer me this, please, Tony. Your mother and father have a child. It is not your brother and it is not your sister. Who is it?”<\/p>\n
Without pausing for a moment, Tony Blair answers,
\n“That would be me.” “Yes! Very good,” says the Queen.<\/p>\n
Back at the White House, Bush asks to speak with vice president Dick Cheney. “Dick, answer this for me. Your mother and your father have a child. It’s not your brother and it’s not your sister. Who is it?”<\/p>\n
“I’m not sure,” says the vice president. “Let me get back to you on that one.”<\/p>\n
Dick Cheney goes to his advisors and asks every one, but none can give him an answer. Finally, he ends up in the men’s room and recognizes Colin Powell’s shoes in the next stall. Dick shouts, “Colin! Can you answer this for me?<\/p>\n
Your mother and father have a child and it’s not your brother or your sister. Who is it?” Colin Powell yells back, “That’s easy. It’s me!” Dick Cheney smiles. “Thanks!”<\/p>\n
Cheney goes back to the Oval Office and to speak with Bush.
\n“Say, I did some research and I have the answer to that riddle. It’s Colin Powell.” Bush gets up, stomps over to Dick Cheney , and angrily yells into his
\nface, “No, you idiot! It’s Tony Blair!”\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
There were another few. Shorter and less funny, but all is good on this topic, isn’t it? ;)\n<\/p>\n

Jay Leno said:<\/p>\n
\n\nThe Bush administration renewed its call for a constitutional amendment to ban gay marriage. So I guess they feel the only time that guys should be on top of each other naked is in an Iraqi prison.\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Jay Leno said:<\/p>\n
\n\nPresident Bush fell off his mountain bike down on his ranch in Texas. A couple weeks ago, John Kerry fell off his bicycle. See, doesn’t this make you miss President Clinton? That guy, he could ride anything without falling off.\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n
Jay Leno said:<\/p>\n
\n\nYou know what really makes this embarrassing? The other day the president said the leaders in Iraq are ‘ready to take off the training wheels.’ That’s what he said, ‘take off the training wheels.’ Then he goes out and falls off his bicycle. And they wonder why the rest of the world doesn’t take us seriously.\n<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"\n
