There is Always a Solution
He watched his son, George W. Bush., the 43rd president of the United States, dressed in a gray suit and a colorful necktie, rush to the area in the fairway where his ball rested, waiting to be sent to a spot few inches from the hole in the green.
"What is it this time, George? Can't you see I am busy?"
"It's Baker, dad. He has been working on that Iraq Plan but I am afraid he is listening to the liberals, democrats and libertarians in the commission. They want us to get out of Iraq!"
"So what? That was the idea since the moment you decided to invade Iraq to become a hero. I told you a million times that you were making a mistake but you did not listen. Just like your mother. All you could see was victorious troops entering Baghdad, the Iraqis throwing flowers at Cheney and at Rumsfeld, who rode an open jeep at the head of a column of 5 jeeps that were the whole invading army. What do you want me to do?"
"Talk to Bill Clinton. He is still a hero for the Egyptians, the Syrians, the Saudis the Palestinians and Jacques Chirac. Maybe he can help Baker arrange a discreet conference and get those countries to help with the Iraq problem. Would you, dad?"
"Listen, first you took Baker away from me. I lost a golfing partner and a fellow collector of Rita Hayworth photographs. Then you took away Condi, who spends more time helping your staff spell Ahmadinejad, Swchartzernegger or Karhzakubestenav, than doing her job at the State Department. Now you want to take my good buddy Bill Clinton!"
"Will he agree?"
"I suppose. Who is going to pay his expenses?"
"Halliburton, of course!"
