President Bush goes to England and meets with the Queen of England. He
asks her, "Your Majesty, how do you run such an efficient government? Are there any tips you can give to me?" "Well," says the Queen, "the most important thing is to surround yourself with intelligent people." Bush frowns. "But how do I know the people around me are really intelligent?" The Queen takes a sip of tea. "Oh, that's easy. You just ask them to answer an intelligent riddle." The Queen pushes a button on her intercom. "Please send Tony Blair in here, would you?" Tony Blair walks into the room. "Yes, my Queen?" The Queen smiles. "Answer me this, please, Tony. Your mother and father have a child. It is not your brother and it is not your sister. Who is it?" Without pausing for a moment, Tony Blair answers, "That would be me." "Yes! Very good," says the Queen. Bush returns to the US and at a meeting, asks Vice President Cheney the same question. "Dick, answer this for me...Your mother and your father have a child. It's not your brother and it's not your sister. Who is it?" "I'm not sure," says the Vice-President. "Let me get back to you on that one." Cheney then goes to his advisors and asks every one, but none can give him an answer. Finally, he ends up in the men's room and recognizes Colin Powell's shoes in the next stall. Cheney shouts, "Colin! Can you answer this for me? Your mother and father have a child and it's not your brother or your sister. Who is it?" Colin Powell yells back, "That's easy. It's me!" Cheney smiles, and says, "Thanks!" Then, runs back to speak with the President. "Say, I did some research and I have the answer to that riddle. It's Colin Powell." Bush gets up, stomps over to his vice-president, and angrily yells into his face, "No, you idiot! It's Tony Blair!"
