Little Johnny Meets Barack Obama*

President Barack Obama
was visiting a primary school, and he
visited one of the classes. They were in the middle of a
discussion related to words and their meanings. The teacher
asked the president if he would like to lead the
discussion on the word 'tragedy.' So our illustrious
President asked the class for an example of a 'tragedy.'

One little boy stood up and offered: "If my best friend, who lives on
a farm, is playing in the field and a tractor runs
over him and kills him, that would be a tragedy."
"No," said Obama,
"That would be an accident."

A little girl raised her hand: "If a school bus carrying 50 children
drove over a cliff killing everyone inside, that would
be a tragedy."

"I'm afraid not," explained Obama.."That's what we would call a great
loss."

The room went silent. No other children volunteered. Obama searched
the
room. "Isn't there someone here who can give me an example of a
tragedy?"

Finally at the back of the room, Little Johnny raised his hand. In a
quiet
voice, he said: "If the plane carrying you and Mrs. Obama was struck
by a
friendly fire missile and blown to smithereens that would be a
tragedy."

"Fantastic!" exclaimed Obama."That's right. And can you tell
me why that would be tragedy?"

"Well," says the boy, "It has to be a tragedy, because it certainly
wouldn't be a great loss...and it probably
wouldn't be an accident either."

Let's hope you actually have basic intelligence, beyond the lizard-brain
portion, to understand how sick this sort of joke is and the consequences
of
promoting such violence.
It is a good joke. What, can't make fun of Obama because he is
back-democrat?


No. Shouldn't make fun of killing a president.

But he did. How are you going to deal with it?

I called the Secret Service. I will put an end to this. Canadian
Mounties to the rescue.
