Title: Keith>>>...
While visiting England, George Bush is invited to tea with the Queen. He
asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is
to surround
herself with intelligent people. He asks how she knows if they're
intelligent. 'I do so by asking them the right questions,' says the Queen.
'Allow me to demonstrate.'
She phones Tony Blair and says, 'Mr. Prime Minister. Please answer this
question: 'Your mother has a child, and your father has a child,and this
child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?' Tony Blair
responds, 'It's
me, ma'am.' 'Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir,' says the Queen. She
hangs up and says, 'Did you get that, Mr. Bush?' 'Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot.
I'll definitely be using that!'
Upon returning to Washington, he decides he'd better put the
Chairman of the
Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test. He summons Jesse Helms to
the White House and says, 'Senator Helms, I wonder if you can answer a
question for me.'
'Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?' 'Uhh, your mother has a child,
and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your
sister. Who is it?' Helms hems and haws and finally asks, 'Can I
think about
it and get back to you?' Bush agrees, and Helms leaves. Helms immediately
calls a meeting of other senior Republican senators,and they
puzzle over the
question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer.
Finally, in desperation, Helms calls Colin Powell at the State Department
and explains his problem. 'Now look here, son, your mother has a
child, and
your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or
your sister.
Who is it?' Powell answers immediately, 'It's me, of course, you idiot.'
Much relieved, Helms rushes back to the White House and exclaims, 'I know
the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!'
And Bush replies in disgust, 'Wrong, it's Tony Blair.'
