It was the end of the school year. The
teacher had turned in her grades;
there was nothing really for the class
to do. All the kids were restless and it
was near the end of the day. So the
teacher thought of an activity. She said, "The first ones to answer
correctly the questions I ask may leave
early today." Little Johnny said to himself, "Good,
I'm smart and I want to get outta
here." The teacher asked, "Who said 'Four
Score and Seven Years Ago'?" Before Johnny could open his mouth,
Susie said, "Abraham Lincoln." The teacher said, "That's right Susie.
You may go." Johnny was really mad that Susie had
answered first. The teacher asked, "Who said 'I Have a
Dream'?" But before Johnny could open his
mouth, Mary said, "Martin Luther
King!" The teacher said, "That's right, Mary.
You may go." Johnny was even madder than before
because Mary had answered first. Then the teacher asked, "Who said
'Ask not what your country can do for
you'?" Before Johnny could open his mouth,
Nancy piped, "John Kennedy!" and
the teacher said, "That's right, Nancy.
you may go." Now Johnny was furious! The teacher turned her back, and
Johnny muttered, "I wish these
bitches would keep their mouths
shut!" The teacher spun around. "WHO SAID
THAT?" Johnny said, "BILL CLINTON. CAN I GO
NOW?"
