Nations Jokes

The United Nations conducted a worldwide survey with one single question:

"Would you please give your opinion about solutions to the food shortage in the rest of the world?"

The survey was a huge failure:

* In Latin America, they didn't know what please meant ...
* In China, they didn't know what opinion meant ...
* In the Middle East, they didn't know what solution meant ...
* In Europe, they didn't know what shortage meant ...
* In Africa, they didn't know what food meant ...

* In the United States, they didn't know what the rest of the world meant ...

The North Korean replied, "Excuse me, but what is an opinion?" The New Yorker replied, "Excuse me, but what is 'excuse me?'"

"An Axis can't have more than three countries," explained Iraqi President Saddam Hussein. more...

In an ABC interview last night Sarah Palin struggled with foreign policy questions. In particular, she was unable to describe President Bush's doctrine of pre-emptive strikes against threatening nations. In all fairness, President Bush can't describe President Bush's doctrine of pre-emptive strikes against threatening nations. Palin also admitted she had never met any foreign heads of state. Well, except for one--Arnold Schwarzenegger.
