Say What???

Barack Obama was touring an elementary school in his old hood promoting his dual language proposal. He noticed little Leroy reading a book. He went over to Leroy and saw the book he was reading was about animals.

"What is that animal," Obama asked?

"A frickan elephant," Leroy replied.

Obama steps back and says, "Say what?"

"A frickan elephant," Leroy repeats.

Obama whispers to Leroy that he shouldn't talk that rap language to the next president of the United States. That language should be saved for songs and home. Obama asks again, "What is that animal?"

"A frickan elephant," Leroy confusedly answers.

Obama was getting frustrated and grabs Leroy's book.

Sure enough, right below the picture it read ....
..........
African Elephant

How great is Hooked on Phonics? Hey Obama, maybe we should learn English before requiring a second language.

(Ed. Note: Presidential? We think not!)

P.S. Are you asking what happened to little Johnny, the usual subject of this humor? Little Johnny graduated college summa cum laude and is currently practicing research medicine. And besides, he only speaks English and doesn't live in the hood!
