Political Humour


Bill Clinton asked the class if they knew what the word tragedy meant?

betty got up and said it would be a tragedy if one of our classmate left the
school and got hit and killed by an automobile. clinton said no, that would
be
an accident.

jimmy got up and said, a tragedy would be in our school bus got stalled on a
railroad track and a train came along and hit the school bus and all the
children on board were killed. clinton said no, that would be a great loss.

mike got up and said , a tragedy would be if someone planted a bomb on air
force one and you and hillary were on the plane when the bomb went off and
killed everyone aboard.....clinton said, now that would be a tragedy, do you
know why that would be a tragedy?...mike thought a while, and said, well it
was no accident, and it certainly was no great loss.





Clinton died and was standing at the Pearly Gates.

After knocking at the gates, St. Peter appeared. "Who goes
there?" inquired St. Peter.

"'It's me, Bill Clinton."

"And what do you want?" asked St. Peter.

"Lemme in!" replied Clinton.

"Soooo," pondered Peter. "What bad things did you do on
earth?"

Clinton thought a bit and answered, "Well, I smoked marijuana
but you shouldn't hold that against me because I didn't inhale. I
guess I had extra-marital sex-but you shouldn't hold that
against me because I didn't really have 'sexual relations.' And I
lied, but I didn't commit perjury."

After several moments of deliberation St. Peter replied, "OK,
here's the deal.  We'll send you someplace where it is very hot,
but we won't call it 'Hell.' You'll be there for an indefinite period
of time, but we won't call it 'eternity.' And don't abandon all
hope' upon entering, just don't hold your breath waiting for it to
freeze over."





I have a moral question for you. This is an imaginary situation, but think
it is fun to decide what one would do.

The situation: You are in the Midwest, and there is a huge flood in
progress. Many homes have been lost, water supplies compromised, and
infrastructures destroyed.

Let's say that you're a photographer out getting still photos for a news
service, traveling alone, looking for particularly poignant scenes.

You come across Bill Clinton who has been swept away by the flood waters. He
is barely hanging on to a tree limb and is about to go under.

You can either put down your camera and save him, or take a Pulitzer prize
winning photograph of him as he loses his grip on the limb. So, here's the
question:

Think carefully before you answer question is below.
