the UN Security Council. |

Bush Country
A man walked into a cowboy bar and ordered a beer just as President Bush
appeared on the television. After a few sips, he looked up at the television and
mumbled, "Now, there's the biggest horse's ass I've ever seen." A customer at
the end of the bar quickly stood up, walked over to him, and decked him. A few
minutes later, as the man was finishing his beer, Mrs. Bush appeared on the
television. "She's a horse's ass too," the man. This time, a customer at the
other end of the bar quickly stood up, walked over to him, and knocked him off
his stool. "Damn it!" the man said, climbing back up to the bar. "This must be
Bush country!" "Nope," the bartender replied. "Horse country!"
