One sunny day in 2005 an old man approached the White House from across
Pennsylvania Ave, where he'd been sitting on a park bench. He spoke to
the US Marine standing guard and said:
- I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.
The Marine looked at the man and said:
- Sir, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no longer resides here.
The old man said, "Okay" and walked away.
The following day, the same man approached the White House and said to
the Same Marine:
- I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.
The Marine again told the man:
- Sir, as I said yesterday, Mr. Bush is no longer president and no
longer resides here.
The man thanked him and, again, just walked away.
The third day, the same man approached the White House and spoke to the
very same US Marine, saying:
- I would like to go in and meet with President Bush.
The Marine, understandably agitated a t this point, looked at the man and
said:
- Sir, this is the third day in a row you have been here asking to speak
to Mr.Bush.
I've told you already that Mr. Bush is no longer the president and no
longer resides here.
Don't you understand?
The old man looked at the Marine and said:
- Oh, I understand. I just love hearing it.
The Marine snapped to attention, saluted, and said:
- See you tomorrow, Sir.

I think enough people agree with your hopes for a bushless American (um... president bush that is) that it's likely you will hear that soon after November. (There is an election this year, right?)GaNgStArR wrote:lol.... i hope that really "Mr. Bush is no longer the president" happens
I'm Canadian, and happy that the Liberals FINALLY lost their majority government.
