Attorney General John Ashcroft visits an elementary school. After speaking
for 15 minutes he says, “I will now answer any questions you have.”

Bobby stands up and says: “I have four questions, sir:

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

2. Why haven’t you caught Osama bin Laden?

3. Why are you using the American Patriot Act to destroy civil liberties?

4. Where are the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

Just then the bell goes off and the kids are sent out to play. Upon
returning, Mr. Ashcroft says: “I am sorry we were interrupted. I will answer
any questions you have.”

A little girl named Julie stands and says: “I have six questions:

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

2. Why haven’t you caught Osama bin Laden?

3. Why are you using the American Patriot Act to destroy civil liberties?

4. Where are the weapons of mass destruction in Iraq?

5. Why did the bell ring twenty minutes early?

6. Where is Bobby?
