Too good not to share

The teacher said, "Let's begin by reviewing some American History. Who said 'Give me Liberty, or give me Death'?"

She saw a sea of blank faces, except for Little Akio, a bright foreign exchange student from Japan, who had his hand up: "Patrick Henry, 1775," he said.

"Very good! -- Who said, 'Government of the People, by the People, for the People, shall not perish from the Earth'?"

Again, no response except from Little Akio: "Abraham Lincoln, 1863."

"Excellent!" said the teacher continuing, "Let's try one a bit more difficult -- Who said, 'Ask not what your country can do for you, but what you can do for your country'?"

Once again, Akio's was the only hand in the air and he said: "John F. Kennedy, 1961.

The teacher snapped at the class, "Class, you should be ashamed of yourselves, Little Akio isn't from this country and he knows more about our history than you do."

She heard a loud whisper: " **** the Japs."

"Who said that? -- I want to know right now!? she angrily demanded.

Little Akio put his hand up, "General MacArthur, 1945."

At that point, a student in the back said, "I'm gonna puke.'
The teacher glares around and asks, 'All right! -- Now who said that?"
Again, Little Akio says, "George Bush to the Japanese Prime Minister, 1991."

Now furious, another student yells, "Oh yeah? -- **** this!"

Little Akio jumps out of his chair waving his hand and shouts to the teacher, "Bill Clinton, to Monica Lewinsky, 1997!"

Now with almost mob hysteria someone said, "You little ****! -- If you say anything else -- I'll kill you!"

Little Akio frantically yells at the top of his voice, "Michael Jackson to the children testifying against him, 2004."

The teacher fainted.

As the class gathered around the teacher on the floor, someone said, "Oh ****, We're screwed!"

Little Akio said quietly, "The American people, November 6, 2012."

Didn't there used to be a joke thread on here? I could swear I read through one when I was working offshore in Africa in 09. Now I can't find it.
Thanks for the laugh Shovel.

I think you might have forgotten one...

I forget the question now, but I seem to recall that Little Akio answered, "Dennis Hastert, or was it Larry Craig, or was it..."

I can't wait for Bill Mahr to come back!

Seriously????? Mahr is the epitome of uneducated, slanderous, and egotistical.....and worthless. I've always liked two sides to a view but everything he does makes me feel like I'm going to puke a little, especially since most of it is merely to incite. I never understood why anyone watches him but hey.....to each is own.

Speaking of FOX news, there are reports of another underage male victim; not the one that was paid 3.5 million in hush money.

Also, Aiko would like to change his answer from Michael Jackson to Denny Hastert.

You are, for one; FOX is in your first sentence, above. I was jumping to conclusions, not making assumptions; but now I am assuming that you know that. Time for Beer!

Gotta love the Dems, pick on a 73 year old man who hasn't been in Gvt. for almost a decade............ Yet ignore a presidential candidate who left 4 of our own to die.

Bizzaroworld should be the name of this country, charge a guy for pulling his OWN money, not for an illegal act, but against what massah says he can, and glorify the person who is the Extortionist.

Bizzaroworld..............

Thats because there are no more "Democrats" in office who used to care for the working man. Over the past 20 years or so, that party has evolved into the liberal progressive monster who feeds on narcissism and apathy, whereby fooling society into believing that the Government can give them everything they need.....therefor everyone will vote Dem so all those self preserving politicians can remain in power.

This country is literally imploding upon itself and yet we worry about the most superficial propagated agendas. Its completely obvious that liberalism and socialism doesnt work. Not now.....nor not ever in history. Thats not an opinion either but hard facts written down in history books. Look at all the liberal driven cities in the country who are currently falling apart or already have fallen apart. But yet there's still those who feel liberalism the right path..... Liberalism is a cult driven sickness which incubates socialism as the weak feel entitled to everything they dont deserve. Sad.....

Pedophilia is a crime. Lying to the FBI is a crime. Violating Federal Banking Regulations is a crime. Even for a 73 YO man.

I hear Sandusky is tidying up his cell. He must be expecting a cellmate.
