George W. Bush was giving a third-grader a lesson on politics. First
he asked the kid to write "The President" on the blackboard.
Then Bush asked the child what he thought the President should
accomplish and the child replied, "Protect the environment and clean
up the air."
Dubya countered, "Why should the clouds be white and the water be blue
when they could be all kinds of cool colors? Is that so terrible.
Can't we agree on it? Can you spell "Is" and "We"?
The boy spells out "Is" then "We" on the blackboard.
"My friends at the oil companies can make chemicals to make trees
tall. If fact, they already did. Can you write, "tall" and "did"?
The boy writes the words on the blackboard.
"Now young man, what have you learned from your talk with the
President?"
The boys stands up and reads what he has written on the blackboard
aloud: "The President is we tall did."
