Reply #9: George W Bush... [View All]

[Kazak]

is visiting little Johnny's second grade class one day and the teacher tells him that they are learing about the word "tragedy".

Oh, says George, can anybody tell me what the word tragedy means.

One little girl raises her hand and tells him that tragedy would be when two children are playing in the yard, one of them runs out into the street, gets hit by a schoolbus and killed.

No, says George, that woudn't be a tragedy, that would be more of an accident...would anybody else like to take a guess?

A little boy this time raises his hand and tells him that tragedy would be when a schoolbus full of children runs off a cliff and all of the children die.

No, says George, that wouldn't a tragedy, that would be more of a great loss...would anybody else like to take a guess?

Finally, little Johnny raises his hand a says that a tragedy would be if he and Mrs. Bush were flying around in Airforce One and terrorists shot it down and the two of them were killed.

Hmmmm, says George, now why would that be a tragedy little Johnny?

Because, says little Johnny, it wouldn't be an accident and it sure as hell wouldn't be any great loss.
