How the Bush Administration Changes a Light Bulb
How many members of the Bush administration does it take to change a light bulb?


1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed

2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb needs to be changed

3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb

4. One to arrange the invasion of a country rumored to have a secret stockpile of light bulbs

5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the new light bulb

6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing on a step ladder under the banner: Light Bulb Change Accomplished

7. One administration insider to resign and write a book documenting in detail how Bush was literally in the dark

8. One to viciously smear #7

9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how George Bush has had a strong light-bulb-changing policy all along

10. And finally one to confuse Americans about the difference between screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.

4. Hehehe, nice!
:D :thumbsup: I was in England the summer after the Iraq War started, and one of our counselors was always ragging on Americans (in a friendly way, although you could tell he disagreed w/the war and all). His variation on the lightbulb joke was this:

Q: How many Americans does it take to screw in a lightbulb?

A: The whole country to say, "No, no, NO!" and then Bush to go ahead and do it anyway.

In retrospect, it would've been funnier if it weren't so true... :hi:
