George W.Bush and his mate **** Cheney were talking，when George W.said，“I hate all the dumb George W.jokes that people tell about me.”
Wise Old Cheney，feeling sorry for his old boss kid，said sage-like，“Oh，they are only jokes.There are a lot of stupid people out.Here，I'll prove it to you.”
Now Cheney，to patronize George W，took him outside and hailed a taxi driver.“Please take me to 29 Nickel Street to see if I'm at home.”said Cheney.
The cab driver drove them to Nickel Street without saying a word，and when they finally got out，Cheney looked at George W.and said，“See！That guy is really stupid.”
“No kidding.”replied George W.“There is a pay phone just around the corner.You could have called instead.”
乔治·布什和他的伙伴迪克·切尼聊天，乔治说：“我讨厌人们讲的那些说我傻的笑话。”
老练的切尼为他的老“雇主”感到很遗憾，他像一位哲人说道：“哦，那些只是笑话。有些人自己也很傻的。来，我证明给你看。”
切尼为了报答乔治，把他带出来，向一位出租车司机招手。“请把我带到Nickel街29号，看我是否在家。”切尼说。
出租车司机二话不说，径直把他们带到了Nickel街29号。从出租车上下来之后，切尼望着乔治说：“看！这家伙真傻！”
“别开玩笑了，”乔治回答道，“角上就有一个付费电话，你往家里打个电话就知道了嘛。”
