Old joke, new version: How many Bush admins to change a light bulb?
How many Bush administration officials does it take to change a light bulb?
TEN. Yes, ten...

1. One to deny that a light bulb needs to be changed;

2. One to attack the patriotism of anyone who says the light bulb needs to be changed;

3. One to blame Clinton for burning out the light bulb;

4. One to tell the nations of the world that they are either for changing the light bulb or for eternal darkness;

5. One to give a billion dollar no-bid contract to Halliburton for the new light bulb;

6. One to arrange a photograph of Bush, dressed as a janitor, standing on a step ladder under the banner 'Bulb Accomplished';

7. One administration insider to resign and in detail reveal how Bush was literally 'in the dark' the whole time;

8. One to viciously smear No. 7;

9. One surrogate to campaign on TV and at rallies on how George Bush has had a strong light-bulb-changing policy all along;

10. And finally, one to confuse Americans about the difference between screwing a light bulb and screwing the country."

7. don't forget
11. One to start to insinuate that a completely different bulb in another room has been working with the first bulb to endanger our freedoms. Thus ramping up the campaign to change that bulb as well (unnecessarily.)

8. "No one could have foreseen the lightbulb breaking...."
Prezident's quote after taking four days to acknowledge that the bulb was even out.
