John McCain, Newt
Gingrich, and Barack Hussein Obama were set to face a
firing squad in a small Central American country.
John McCain was the first one placed against the wall
and just before the order was given he yelled out,
"Earthquake!" The firing squad fell into a
panic and John jumped over the wall and escaped in
the confusion.
Newt Gingrich was
the second one placed against the wall. The squad was
reassembled and Newt pondered what he had just
witnessed. Again before the order was given he yelled
out, "Tornado!" Again the squad fell apart
and Newt slipped over the wall.
The last person,
Barack Hussein Obama, was placed against the wall. He
was thinking, "I see the pattern here, just
scream out something about a disaster and hop over
the wall." He confidently refused the blindfold
as the firing squad was reassembled. As the rifles
were raised in his direction he grinned from ear to
ear and yelled, "Fire!"
