[QUOTE="moreluck, post: 61157"] * * * * * Clinton Tragedy * * * * * Bill Clinton is visiting a school. In one class he asks the students if anyone can give him an example of a "tragedy". One little boy stands up and offers, "If my best friend who lives next door was playing in the street when a car came along and killed him, that would be a tragedy." "No", Clinton says, "That would be an ACCIDENT." A girl raises her hand. "If a school bus carrying 50 kids drove off a cliff killing everyone aboard...that would be a tragedy." "I'm afraid not," explains Clinton. "That is what we would call a GREAT LOSS." The room is silent. None of the other children volunteer. "What?" asks Clinton. "Isn't there anyone here who can give me an example of a tragedy?" Finally, a boy in the back raises his hand. In a timid voice he says, "If an airplane carrying Bill & Hillary Clinton were blown up by a bomb, THAT would be a tragedy." "Wonderful!" Clinton beams. "Marvelous! And can you tell me why that would be a tragedy?" "Well," said the boy, "because it wouldn't be an accident, and it certainly would be no great loss!" [/QUOTE]
