(not mine, sent to me from a friend.)
One night, George W. Bush is tossing restlessly in his White House bed. He
awakens to see George Washington standing by him.
Bush asks him, "George, what's the best thing I can do to help the country?"
"Set an honest and honorable example, just as I did," Washington advises,
and then fades away.
The next night, Bush is astir again, and sees the ghost of Thomas Jefferson
moving through the darkened bedroom.
Bush calls out, "Tom, please! What is the best thing I can do to help the
country?"
"Respect the Constitution, as I did," Jefferson advises, and dims from
sight.
The third night sleep is still not in the cards for Bush. He awakens to see
the ghost of F. D.R. hovering over his bed.
Bush whispers, "Franklin, What is the best thing I can do to help the
country?"
Help the less fortunate, just as I did," FDR replies and fades into the
mists.
Bush isn't sleeping well the fourth night when he sees another figure moving
in the shadows. It is the ghost of Abraham Lincoln.
Bush pleads, "Abe, what is the best thing I can do right now, to help the
country?
Abe replies, "Go see a play."
