A good one:
It seems Iraq's United Nations Ambassador, Tarik Aziz, had just finished giving a big speech to a group of supporters in New York City. Aziz walked out of the lobby, and he ran into none other than President George W. Bush.
To break the tension - and keep Dub from snapping him in two - the ambassador says, "You know, I a question about something I've seen in America every time I've been here."
The president says, "Well, Mr. Ambassador, anything I can do to help you, I will. Fire away."
Aziz says, "You know my son Saddam Oscheisse Aziz comes with me to America, and loves watching Star Trek. In it there are Russians, Africans, Asians, Klingons - what you call a 'diverse' cast. But there are never any Iraqis."
"Ah, I see," the president says.
"Yes, and my son he is very upset about that, because he looks at the show for role models. He always asks me, 'Dad, why aren't there any Iraqis on Star Trek?' This he does not understand."
So Bush laughs, leans forward and whispers into Aziz's ear, "There are no Iraqis on Star Trek because it takes place in the future." |
