You will like this one.
The Pope is visiting DC and President Bush takes him
out for an afternoon on the Potomac...sailing on the
presidential yacht, Sequoia.
They're admiring the sights when, all of a sudden,
the Pope's hat (zucchetto) blows off his head and out
into the water. The Secret Service agents start to
launch a boat, but Bush waves them off, saying "Wait,
wait. I'll take care of this. Don't worry."
Bush then steps off the yacht onto the surface of
the water and walks across the water out to the Holy Father's little
hat, bends over and picks it up, then
walks back on the water to the yacht and climbs aboard. He hands
the hat to the Pope amid Holy awe and stunned silence.
The next morning, the Washington Post carries a
story, with front-page photos, of the event.
The banner headline reads: "Bush Can't Swim."
GOD BLESS AMERICA!

You know that would be more funny if it weren't so true.

Thanks, that's a great one because it's too funny, and too true.
