GEORGE BUSH ON A TRIP TO ENGLAND PAID A VISIT TO QUEEN ELIZABETH. HE ASKED HER HOW SHE MANAGED TO RUN HER COUNTRY WITH SUCH OBVIOUS EASE. SHE REPLIED "WELL, I JUST SURROUND MYSELF WITH VERY INTELLIGENT MINISTERS AND VERY INTELLIGENT ADVISERS.

BUSH SAID, "THAT IS A GOOD IDEA, BUT HOW DO YOU MAKE SURE THAT THEY ARE ACTUALLY INTELLIGENT?" THE QUEEN SAID, "I ASK THEM A RIDDLE---HERE I WILL SHOW YOU." SHE CALLED IN TONY BLAIR, THE PRIME MINISTER, AND ASKED HIM THE FOLLOWING RIDDLE. "YOUR PARENTS HAD A CHILD. IT WAS NEITHER YOUR SISTER NOR YOUR BROTHER. WHO WAS IT?" TONY BLAIR SAID, "OF COURSE IT WAS I". THE QUEEN THANKED HIM AND SHE AND BUSH FINISHED THEIR VISIT.

WHEN BUSH GOT HOME HE THOUGHT HE MIGHT TRY OUT HIS INTELLIGENCE CHECK SO HE CALLED IN CARL ROVE. HE ASKED ROVE TO SOLVE THE FOLLOWING RIDDLE. "YOUR PARENTS HAD A CHILD. IT WAS NEITHER YOUR SISTER NOR YOUR BROTHER. WHO WAS IT. ROVE SAID, I WILL HAVE TO PUT THAT TO MY ADVISERS AND GET BACK TO YOU IN A WHILE, MR PRESIDENT".

SO ROVE LEAVES THE OVAL OFFICE AND RUNS INTO COLIN POWELL. HE ASKED COLIN POWELL, "YOUR PARENTS HAD A CHILD WHO WAS NEITHER YOUR SISTER NOR YOUR BROTHER....WHO WAS IT?" COLIN POWELL SAID, "OF COURSE IT WAS I".

ROVE WAS DELIGHTED. HE RAN BACK TO THE OVAL OFFICE AND SAID TO BUSH, "I HAVE THE ANSWER.....THE CHILD WAS COLIN POWELL". BUSH LOOKED DISGUSTED AND SAID, "NO, YOU IDIOT......IT WAS TONY BLAIR".
