The latest lightbulb joke…

Lightbulb jokes do not usually do it for me, and you probably heard this one anyway, but Friend Carol sent this to me.

How many members of the Bush Administration are needed to replace a light
bulb?

The answer is 10.

1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed.

2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb needs to
be changed.

3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb.

4. One to tell the nations of the world that they are either: “For changing
the light bulb or for darkness.”

5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the new
light bulb.

6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing on a
stepladder under the banner “Light Bulb Change Accomplished.”

7. One administration insider to resign and write a book documenting in
detail how Bush was literally “in the dark.”

8. One to viciously smear #7.

9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how George Bush has had a strong light bulb-changing policy all along.

10. And, finally, one to confuse Americans about the difference between
screwing a light bulb and screwing the country.

Editor’s note: shouldn’t we add a third option: “the difference between screwing a lightbulb, screwing an intern, and screwing the country”? Verbalchameleon.
