George Bush is having a meeting with the Queen. He
asks her: "How do you run an efficient government? Any
tips you can give me?"
And the Queen says: "Well, the most important thing is
to surround yourself with intelligent people."
Bush frowns, and replies: "Well, how do I know the
people around me are really intelligent or not?"
The Queen takes a little sip of tea, and says: "Oh,
that's easy. You just ask them a riddle".
Then the Queen pushes the button on her intercom and
says: "Please send the Prime Minister in here, would you?"
So Tony Blair walks into the room. "Yes, Maam?" The
Queen smiles at Tony and says: "Tony, answer me this, would you?
Your mother and father have a child. It's not your
brother, and it's not your sister. Who is it?"
Without missing a beat, Tony Blair says: "Well, that
would be me."
The Queen smiles and says: "Very good, thank you!"
So, back at the White House, Bush is a bit puzzled.
So, he asks to speak with Dick Cheney: "Hey Dick,
answer this for me, would ya?
Your mother and your father have a child. It's not
your brother and it's not your sister... who is it?
Dick Cheney frowns and says: "Geez, I'm not sure Mr
president...lemme get back to you." So, Dick Cheney
goes to all advisors, and asks everyone he can, but no
one can answer it for him.
Finally, he ends up in the men's room, and he
recognizes Colin
Powell's shoes in the next stall over. So Dick shouts
over to him:
"Hey Colin... can you answer this for me? Your mother
and father have a child. It's not your brother and
it's not you sister. Who is it?"
Colin Powell flushes, and yells back: "Hey, that's
easy... it's me!"
Dick Cheney smiles and yells: "Thanks!"
So, Dick Cheney goes back into the Oval Office and
tells Bush: "Hey
Mr President, I finally figured out the answer to that
riddle! It's Colin Powell!"
Bush gets up, and angrily stomps over to Dick Cheney.
Bush yells right in Dick's face:
"No, you fucking idiot! It's Tony Blair!"
