Attorney General John Ashcroft is visiting an elementary school.

[Jackpine Radical]

After the typical civics presentation he says, "Alright, boys and girls, you can ask me questions now."

A young boy named Bobby raises his hand and says, "I have two questions:

"1. How did Bush win the election with fewer votes than Gore? and

"2. Why are you using the USA Patriot Act to limit Americans' civil liberties?"

Just then the bell sounds and all the kids run out to the playground.

Fifteen minutes later, the kids come back to class and Ashcroft says, "I'm sorry we were interrupted by the bell. Now, you can all ask me questions."

A young girl raises her hand and says, "I have four questions:

"1. How did Bush win the election with fewer votes than Gore?

"2. Why are you using the USA Patriot Act to limit Americans' civil liberties?

"3. Why did the bell go off 20 minutes early? and

"4. Where's Bobby?"



I forgot to put in a wonderful link, which was the source for the joke and much more:
