While visiting England, George Bush is invited to tea with the Queen. He asks her what her leadership philosophy is. She says that it is to surround herself with intelligent people.

Bush asks how she knows if they're intelligent.

"I do so by asking them the right questions," says the Queen. "Allow me to demonstrate."

Bush watches as the Queen phones Tony Blair and says, "Mr. Prime Minister, please answer this question: your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or sister. Who is it?"

Tony Blair responds, "It's me, ma'am."

"Correct. Thank you and good-bye, sir," says the Queen. She hangs up and says, "Did you get that, Mr. Bush?"

Bush nods: "Yes ma'am. Thanks a lot. I'll definitely be using that!"

Bush, upon returning to Washington, decides he'd better put the Chairman of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee to the test. Bush summons Joe Biden to the White House and says, "Senator Biden, I wonder if you can answer a question for me."

"Why, of course, sir. What's on your mind?"

Bush poses the question: "Uhh, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"

Biden hems and haws and finally asks, "Can I think about it and get back to you?"

Bush agrees, and Biden leaves. He immediately calls a meeting of other senior Democratic senators, and they puzzle over the question for several hours, but nobody can come up with an answer. Finally, in desperation, Biden calls Colin Powell at the State Department and explains his problem.

"Now look here, son, your mother has a child, and your father has a child, and this child is not your brother or your sister. Who is it?"

Powell answers immediately, "It's me, of course."

Much relieved, Biden rushes back to the White House, finds George Bush, and exclaims, "I know the answer, sir! I know who it is! It's Colin Powell!"

And Bush replies in disgust, "Wrong, you dumb twit, it's Tony Blair!"

Reminds me of the two workers digging a ditch. One of them points at the supervisor and asks the other, "Why does he get to stand up there in the shade while we have to dig this ditch in the sun?"
The second worker goes up and asks the boss why he gets to stand in the shade while they work. The boss motions the worker over to a tree. The boss puts his hand up against the tree and tells the second worker, "Now hit my hand with your fist."
The worker swings as hard as he can but the boss moves his hand at the last moment and the worker busts his knuckles all on the side of the tree. The boss smiles and says, "That's why I am the BOSS, any other questions?"
The worker climbs back down in the ditch and the first worker wants to know what the boss told him. The second worker says "I can't tell you but I will show you." The second worker puts his hand up in front of his face and says, "Now take that shovel and try to hit my hand."
